I still rememberI first watched The Pursuit of Happyness on HBO as a kid back in 2010 and even after all these years, it is still my top movie. Will Smith delivers an unforgettable performance as Chris Gardner, showing the grit, pain, and determination of a man fighting for a better life. Jaden Smith’s natural presence makes their father and son bond feel deeply real. What makes this film stand out is its honesty. It does not sugarcoat struggle, yet it leaves you with hope and strength. It reminds us that happiness is not given, it is pursued, and that perseverance can turn even the darkest moments into triumphs. For me, this movie is more than entertainment. It is a life lesson I carry with me to this day. (Never give up no matter what!)
