When I was going to watch this movie, I was really apprehensive. I could sense that its going to be a good movie as Will Smith was nominated for the Academy Award for the movie. Yet I was apprehensive coz of the setup. It was an official team outing and that too after a whole day of listening boring presentations. In a group, you like to watch a fun-filled movie and not a serious one. I was wrong. It is one of the few movies in which I have seen the audience clap!!!
It is a very inspiring movie about a man's struggle to make the ends meet and make a future for himself. He has a 5 year old son and a job as a salesman of medical bone density scanners(!!!!), a product that has limited demand. He is unable to meet his expenses with his job and then one day, he decides to take a risk....He tries and struggles his way to an internship program in a strockbroking firm. The internship is very competitive and does not pay a dime!!!! With his determination, he finally clears the exam and becomes a stockbroker. Will Smith has given a very intense performance in the role of the man, Chris Gardner (The movie is inspired by a true story). You would laugh and cry with him throughout the movie. It is not at all a sob story. Believe me, you will enjoy the movie and come out with tears of joy and bunch of dreams. A "Must Watch" for everyone.
