Just bought a batch of movies at Blockbuster the other day and this happened to be one of them. I caught the first few minutes of it on a flight to Vegas before it was rudely interrupted by a stewardess and then not rewinded after she was done speaking so I stopped watching. I also heard really great things about it, I think it won a lot of awards, and Caitlin had been going on about seeing it for a while now. So… I bought it.<br/><br/>The story is a great one, but I feel a lot more could have been done with it. I don’t know what to point my finger at, but something didn’t seem complete. Maybe I would have liked to see the kid grow up more since it focused so much on his well-being? I don’t know. Anyway, the casting was perfect. I think using a father/son combo added a little bit of intangible that is not present in other movies of this type.<br/><br/>All in all, a decent movie, but I was expecting a bit more.<br/><br/><span style=”font-weight: bold;”>7.8/10</span> – Guaranteed to make her cry<br/><br/><span style=”font-weight: bold;”>More</span><br/><a href=”http://www.chrisgardnermedia.com/main/book.htm” target=”_blank”>Book</a><br/><a href=”http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0454921/” target=”_blank”>IMDB</a><br/><a href=”http://www.sonypictures.com/homevideo/thepursuitofhappyness/” target=”_blank”>Official Site</a><br/><a href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pursuit_of_Happyness” target=”_blank”>Wiki</a><br/>
