The Pursuit Of Happyness (Blu-ray)

As a blu-ray movie this film looks great. Although not what I would call a tester disk for the HD experience. Sure, colours are well defined. the backdrop of San Fransisco looks good - And the bright white of Will Smith's shirt and the scene where he paints is appartment are probably the best visual scenes.

The movies Dolby soundtrack though is excellent. A full range of orchestrated music sounds beautiful and really gets you into the emotion of the film, and it is in its music and its HD extra's that show off this blu-ray.

The best extra is certainly the world champion rubix cubers showing how fast they can solve the Rubix puzzle.

As a movie it is very good, well acted and a great story. Here in the UK we are safe in the 'welfare state', loose your job and benifits kick in to keep you just about OK. Not in America - No job = nothing, and this shows how the American system of your rich or poor to being destitute is well shown by Smith.

Thandie Newton though as Will Smith's beleagured girlfriend without dubt steels the acting kudos, looking pasty, worn out and 'on the edge' she shows how tough it is to live when you know your behind on rent, and well just about everything else.

Look out for Homer Simpson - Well, the actor behind the voice who plays Smith's Class leader at the sotckbroker - He is the one who asks him to move his car.

Some touching moments between father and son and also tough telling of from Dad to Son, a must for a great family movie

This film is greatly inspiring, it tells the true story of Chris Gardener a struggling single father who becomes homeless with his 5 year old son. Gardner (Smith) is determined to find a better life for him and his son and risks everything by embarking on an unpaid internship with Stockbroker company Dean Witter where only 1 in 20 make it through. One moment from the film see's Gardener tell his son: 'their are a lot of things you will be good at just not this (Basketball) and his son throws the ball away and looks dejected realising what he has done Gardener tells his son: Don't let anybody tell you you CAN'T do something, if you have a dream you've gotta protect it! If you want something GO GET IT PERIOD! That is one of the most inspiring lines in the film and of course Gardener goe's onto become a succesful broker and found the Gardener Rich foundation.
