Based on the Real life story of Chris Gardner, this is an inspiring story of a father who raised his son alone in poverty and homelessness and yet was brave enough to take the plunge for a career opportunity well out of his reach. This movie belongs to Will Smith's phenomenal performance. This ever smiling, charming salesman who has big hopes for his future but struggling hard to make ends meet, getting kicked out of his house with no money and yet trying his damn best to protect his kid from the harsh reality. People remember that performance even after 16 years. The pacing of the movie is perfect, with funny and traumatic moments weaved seamlessly. The writing is amazing, and that climax scene will definitely ache your heart.
