I enjoyed this movie too. At times, it was so painful to watch this poor man's struggle - all he wanted to do was to work and support his family / son, and yet things just wouldn't work for him... I think many of us can relate to that. And then when he wins in the end, you just want to do a happy dance!

This one is a nice, touching movie. It inspires people to do their best no matter what the odds are.

I really thought this one was a true inspiration! Such a hopeful story and told in a way that really reached out to folks going through bad situations. I made my kids watch it....they didn't regret doing so!

This is an amazing story. Right now with so many of us having hard financial times, it's good to reflect upon this story and remember that we can be successful no matter how broke we get!

Will Smith has grown so much as an actor since his Fresh Prince days. I think this is one of his best movies. Very inspiring.

When they lose their place to live and have to spend nights at public bathrooms, that's just heart-breaking... And still, the father refuses to give up and keeps fighting for this high-profile job of a broker, working for free... What a strong man. I am so glad he gets his reward in the end.

I was just going to ask if this is the one with Will Smith then I saw cleocat2001's post and saw that she mentioned Will Smith. I saw the promo's of this film but haven't yet been able to watch it, but I know its movie which has to be watched, hopefully sometime this month will watch it.

Even though there are a lot of low-quality movies out there, produced just to make money, this particular movie is amazing. It makes us ponder about life and encourages us to never give no matter how hard things get. I loved it and I have watched quite a few times. I must say it still makes me cry when I see it.

I've never seen it, but since so many of you like it.. I might have to find that online later and watch it. My bf just said it's a good movie too. Whose in it?
