This is a movie about a man who is lost in life , who only has an aim in life to keep his family happy , NO MATTER WHAT and is deeply uninspiring in his efforts to do so.
Will smith playing the part of Chris Gardner is the protagonist of the movie with his real son playing his son in the movie as well as the cute little Christopher.
The movie is based on real life story of Chiris gardner and it belongs to the genre of films like The Gladiator , The patriot and Spider man movies which give you some food for thought once you have seen the movie and the characters still live on long after the film is over.
what is so inspiring about the movie is the fact that first , the story is based on a real life character and hence there is a sense of palpability in thought the movie and the characters circumstances look like just the next door neighborhood man struggling for reasons you are not quite aware of and make fun of.
Chris is a family man but his relations with his wife are not quite going in the right direction and reaches a stage where his wife leaves him. He now takes over the responsibility of bringing up his son Christopher.
This is a story about his struggles and the courage that he shows in all those times of struggle to come out of it and finally find Happiness in life , which is what touches the audience.
The courage and confidence that this person shows in adverse times of difficulty is what everybody needs to learn from here , we all lose our patience in times of trouble but that's not the way to go , is the message behind the movie.
this is one of the most heart warming and moving as well as inspirational movie you are ever going to find.
If we keep trying and keep moving ahead not thinking of the failures that may lie ahead then we will succeed in life is the lesson that is so well depicted here.
there are scenes in the movie which will make you cry and make you move like the one in which the father and the son spend the night in a public bathroom since they have nowhere to go and Chris is crying through the night while his son sleeps in his arms , knowing his son does not deserve this kind of a place to sleep around.
there have been movies which would make you cry for the wrong reasons but this is one film which i am sure every person must have sulked at least a few tears. After all in everybody of us there is a father or a son and we all can identify with them.
I am not a die hard will smith fan and i have probably avoided his movies before , a few of them have made me cry in the other senses like the Wild Wild west kind but for me Will smith deservedly was nominated for the Oscar's , his performance is so relatable and real you feel you need to do something for this man who is there right next to you.
There are seldom movies which have a teaching in them but this one falls into one of those rare genre of films , highly recommended for people with family , especially parents.

I have never seen such a review before. The emphasis was on the message rather than the movie itself. The way you jot down the potential lessons( i can see that numbered list even though you did not use bullets and all) to be learnt, its apparent that movie touched you somewhere deep inside, which also turned ur soul into a Will Smith fan. I am astonished to learn that still people care to see a son - father relationship when sex and violence and all are ubiquitious in movies these days. I dont see many movies but the way you depicted rather recommended it, i think i must watch it too.
