Plot: The rousing, true-life story of a single dad who went from living on the streets to owning his own brokerage firm is brought to the big screen by superstar Will Smith, appearing for the first time opposite his real-life son Jaden Smith. Set in early-'80s San Francisco, the film charts the hard times and eventual comeback of Chris Gardner, a suddenly single salesman who has custody of his son, but finds that providing for the two of them is a challenge in the increasingly unstable economic climate. He struggles to work his way from unpaid intern at Dean Witter to something more substantial, even as life continues to offer him setbacks. Making his Hollywood debut, Italian director Gabriele Muccino was championed by Will Smith for the project. ~ Michael Hastings, All Movie Guide

Will Smith is a date doctor, who helps desperate men woo the women of their dreams to get them to fall in love with them. He helps his latest client, an accountant, make the women of his dreams fall in love with him. However while he is helping him, Will Smith gets in touch with a journalist and fall for her, but his techniques do not work on her. Eventually in the movie, he realizes that the best way to get women to like you is to simply be yourself.

Whats nice and new about this movie is all the practical tips given on how to impress a women. Things that you might not have ever thought about before and after this movie you realize, oh that makes sense.

The movie is fine, with few funny scenes. Not hilarious enough though!

This movie is about a man named Alex "Hitch" Hitchens, Will Smith, who helps men with the women thay have fallen for. He is called the "Date Doctor". His newest client Albert, Kevin James, a clumbsy lawyer is in love with a beautiful, rich, famous woman named Allegra. Smitch tries to teach Kevin to be smooth, romantic, etc. Kevin James is so funny, and he and Will Smith have excellent chemistry on screen together. Eva Mendes also does a great job as Will Smith's love interest. I love anything with Will Smith and this one didnt dissappoint me. I loved this movie!!!

A moving Movie of true life, beating the odds
Added 11/3/2009

The Pursuit Of Happyness is based on a true story is a moving movie and makes the point that anything is possible.

Moving, heart wrenching and Will Smith's son in real life, playing his son in the movie does well.

One F word in this moving movie which reveals the ups and many downs of one man who who trying to find his break in life and...

There are some good scenes, the son dropping his toy, the eviction, the sleeping rough in a toilet and trying to break it in the big time financial world.
