Will Smith has been one of my favorite actors for a long time. Actually since "Fresh Prince of Bel Air", I always had to watch the television show to make sure I caught every episode. Since doing "Independence Day", "Men In Black", "Ali", "Hitch", and "Pursuit of Happyness", I have actually seen his evolution in becoming a great actor. What do you all think about Will Smith and his future as he continues his acting career? Or if there is something that you would like to see changed, please list it here? Lastly, while you're at it, list some of your favorite movies Will Smith was a part of. My favorites: Independence Day, Pursuit of Happyness, and Ali, because each of those movies truly portrayed his talent.

Have you ever seen Six Degrees of Separation? If not, check it out. It's one of his earliest, and best, roles. He disowns it, however.

i think that's probably the only one of his movies that i didn't get to see, but i have heard about it and can see why he would probably disown it, after all he did play a gay guy (if i recall correctly). but i heard he played the part magnificently. another movie that he disowns is "Wild Wild West", he thought that it was a bad move on his part, for accepting that role and turning down "The Matrix". did you know that he was first chosen to play Neo?

i believe the "love doctor" movie you are referring to is Hitch, and yes that was great as well. also what i forgot to mention was I, Robot and Bad Boys, both of those were good as well.

I first daw Will Smith on the movie Independence day and from then on I already knew he would be a hit. He can be funny and touching at the same time! He's just phenomenal.

I love Will Smith. Funny, my kids don't remember 'The Fresh Prince...', but they watch the re-runs all the time because they are still so funny. He is genuinely a gifted actor. I loved him in "Independence Day" and "Men in Black" as well as "Ali", where he should have received an Oscar, and "The Pursuit of Happyness" which was a fabulous movie. Furthermore, he is to be admired as a human being, a husband and a father.

Will Smith is a great actor. I used to watch episodes of Fresh Prince Of Bel Air. He can make you laugh big time. I've seen Independence Day. And that film is one of my favourites as well. It made Will Smith come out of his shell. I've seen bits and pieces of Ali and he did well. I heard rave reviews about his latest flick, 'Pursuit of Happyness'. He just needs to keep up the good work and hopefully he will get an oscar.

I really like him. I watched some of "The Prince of Bel Air" and I have to admit it was a lot better then I first thought it would be. It had some great story lines and characters in it. I think my favorite movies with him would be "Independance Day" and "MIB 1 and 2". I loved watching him in those. He had a lot of talent and I'd like to see him in more dramatic roles. I haven't seen his newest film but would like to. It looks like it would be a very good one for him.

Like? No, no, no . . . LOVE! I have seen just about every movie he's been in. While I know it's one of his sillier roles, I can't help but love him in Men in Black. Oh, and let's not forget Wild, Wild West. Will Smith is the complete package: a man of many talents.
