This movie is now on my top 3 list of the best movies I've seen. I hate dramas cause I find it boring, but when I saw the trailer and saw Will Smith I got curious. I love Will Smith, he has a real talent cause he is very flexible in playing different roles for movies in different categories. I used to watch him doing comedy and action, never for drama.

When I watched the movie I cried all the way until the movie ended. The movie showed the most important lesson in life. How the character of Will strive to survive, to race his child, never giving up, his love for his family, how he pulled all his inner strength in order to survive and succeed and how he sacrificed.

This movie is an 'eye opener' for me. How I sometimes take for granted what I have, waste money, waste food, waste time, how I easily loose hope and give up, being not contented for what I have without knowing that other people are suffering a hundred times as I am. To all those people behind this movie, thank you so much. Happy mylotting!

The man behind the story is the most incredible. I haven't seen the movie, but I did see an interview done on Glenn Beck of this amazing man and how he became the success he is today.

He is really an inspiration to us. He deserve what he has today and I hope he'll continue to touch hearts through his story.

Two thumbs up for Will for a job well done when he played the role. Thanks!

You should check it out and be inspired. I'm sure you'll like the story though it's very dramatic but it's an A rating for me. Thanks!

Overall I liked the movie, but I wouldn't say it's my favorite Will Smith movie.


myLot reputation of 81/100. frozenthrone (239)   ranked 6,445 out of 11,495 in watching movies  1 year ago

Yeah, Will was very dramatic and it seemed like it's not the usual Will Smith whom we laugh at on his comedies. But overall Will was excellent knowing that it's a dramatic movie. Thanks!

I like the film very much also because it tells us to stand proud of what we are doing or what we want to do or have in life . I like it when will smith says to his son " dont let anyone tells you what you can and cant do" . It is very true in our lives because a lot of people are trying really to interfere with ourlives by telling us what we can and cant do that sometimes we feel it getting into our nerves. And also i find it very appealing because and into sales and marketing. His eagerness to sell and how he does that he a very good way of selling.


myLot reputation of 81/100. frozenthrone (239)   ranked 6,445 out of 11,495 in watching movies  1 year ago

You're definitely right ronacruz2007. The lesson was really clear and it's one inspiring movie.

We must learn how to stand up against all odds and not let other people control us. This way we won't have someone to blame but ourselves if we fail and we won't owe anyone if we succeed. Thanks!

A thoroughly inspirational movie of a fathers trials and tribulations, and determination to better his life for himself and his family. Wonderfully acted by Will Smith and his real life son, Jayden...move over dad, theres a new actor in the family. I found this movie to be especially moving, especially with the fact that he tells his son never allow someone to tell you, you cant do your dream. This movie is worth your time, and understanding. A great story of determination, and if you put your mind to whatever your hearts desire, you study hard, work hard and practice hard...you can do it.

Thanks zabawaus. I didn't know the boy was his real son, now no wonder why the boy was great, he got it from his father. And yes this is a-must-see-movie for the entire family. Great lesson, great artists and great story. Happy Mylotting!
