Outstanding!!!!! Jaden is so cute, but the movie was incredibly uplifting. Just when it seems like you should give up, keep pressing your way. :cool:

I am going to see Dreamgirls with mom and brother hopefully. It's our tradition to go see a movie Christmas Day.

I think you and your daughter will love it! It's #1 this weekend.:cool:

I got a chance to see it and it was a very good movie. Jaden was awesome -yes the story was uplifting and I shed a few tears- but he was super cute and completely made the movie for me.

I absolutely loved this movie...I went with a couple of girlfriends to relax after finals and it was such a tear jerker. Will was amazing and Jaden was so cute, I wanted to reach into the screen and take him home with me:)! I can't wait for this to come out on DVD...def. will be buying it!!!

I was really inspired by the movie. It really made me think. I've had some hard times in my life but my trials were nothing compared to his. I was feeling really down about alot of things but now I feel that I have absolutely no excuse to not achieve every goal that I set for myself(no matter what is going on in my life).

Very good film. I did not shed a tear.
It was long, close to 2 hours.
Will did alot of running. :D

It was a fantastic movie. And I cried. Like a baby, lol. It was just so inspiring, it made me want to leave the theatre and go to my job and start cranking out numbers so that I can own the company, lol. Inspiration.

i enjoyed it but believe I overhyped it in my mind. I was a little let down. Jaden was cute. Will was impressive but I liked Thandi's role

Great movie!
 
The movie was phenomenal!

Mr. Gardner was a very tenacious brotha. I loved the fact that he had to keep his son. That was so inspirational! I got emotional when they offered him that job. I actually wanted to shout because God blessed him for sacrificing. Great, great movie!

I loved all the running in the movie. To me that was metaphorical that the race isn't given to the swift, but to the ones who endure the race. :)

Just saw the movie, it was so great. I definitely want to take my mom to see it again. Will and Jaden were fabulous. I was afraid that the sad parts would be too sad for me, but they were more tense than sad and effectively portrayed the constant anxiety of having no foundation for security. I'll have to buy this movie and watch it every time I feel llike complaining. I am curious about the wife (Thandie's character)...Talk about kicking yourself for the rest of your life. And then watching it in a feature film!

I'm curious as well. That would suck to be her. Had she just stood by him just a little bit longer. Oh well, everything happens for a reason.:)

Plain as day. :)

I finally got a chance to see the movie yesterday, and it was definitely good, and this will be a purchase when the DVD comes out....all I'm saying is that dude did a lot of running, and I'm sorry, but who else laughed when he was hit by the car (not that part) but famn it the shoe...how did he loose his shoe and then not be able to find it?

delph998...girl I was right there with you...when they offered him that job I wanted to SCRAM.....YEAH, that's what I'm talking bout, and then I was like dude give him back his $5.:)

Chris Gardner has a 21 yr old daughter. I wonder who her mother is, and if she is still in the picture. I know that his ex-wife is sitting there like ain't this about a b*tch.
