Why I hate the “Pursuit of Happyness”

1. It wasted 2 hours of my life
2. It seems to be a blatant attempt to get Will Smith an Oscar
3 “Christopher,” who is supposed to be five years old is played by Will Smiths son, who is clearly eight, and no where near convincing as a five year old.
4. The hero in the movie is mildly abusive to his son and wife
5. I don’t like movies where the trailer is better than the acutal movie. Watch the trailer here…

6. Everyone else loves it and cried the whole time, causing me to lose respect for some of my friends.
7. Showing how hard Chris Garner’s life was for 99.8% of the movie most closely resembles beating a dead horse.
8. Many story lines were left unresolved, perhaps wrapping those up instead of dragging on about how sad Garner’s life was would have made the movie more complete.
9. I could have seen “Happy Feet” instead
10. My soul, or lack thereof, is questioned when someone finds out not only did I not cry at the movie, but I hated it.



I figured that movie would suck. How many more movies do we need about people who come upon hard times rising to the top because of irregular intelligance or a great personality? I’m sorry, but there is nothing motivating about that. I, for one, don’t have irregular intellect or a great personality…so where does that leave me?
