Wow. That's about all I can say. I really, really expected this to turn out bad. I didn't expect Will Smith to be able to be serious as I have only seen him in Comedies or Actions. But it surprised me, a lot.
Will Smith is actually what makes this film. I'd say it'd be boring otherwise, but his perfect mix of drama and jokes made this film. This is probably one, if not my favorite Will Smith film. His son is also great and is looking like a promising actor. Great acting from everyone else also helps.
The story is a bit long, but kept my attention throughout. It really is touching in parts and funny in others. Go see this film for a great laugh and a good movie.

9/10

Did they spell happiness wrong on purpose?

They make movies of everything. But at least this turned out to be a good movie. I want to see this. I think I will see it tomorrow.

Long answer:

QUOTE
The word "Happyness" in the title has been taken from the misspelling of "Fun Joy Happyness" on a mural children have painted on the Chinatown daycare center where Chris Gardner takes his son, Christopher. When Chris points out the mistake, Mrs. Chu replies that it is not important to the pre-schoolers how to spell "happiness," only that they have happiness. This leads Chris to contemplate the inclusion of the concept of the individual's right to "the pursuit of happiness" in the Declaration of Independence, and how to pursue a happier, more emotionally secure childhood for his son.

Saw it a week or two ago. Great movie.

Pre-edit: That post sounded sarcastic but it wasn't. I really liked the movie.

Good movie, but you knew the whole story from the get-go. You know it's going to turn out fine in the end. It's a Hollywood cliche, but Will smith made it watchable.

And his kid is cute as hell.

Saw it with 20 or so friends. I love how the trailer completely ruined the whole movie.
