I’ve heard good things about this film, so I finally decided to watch it. Will Smith and his son Jaden did an amazing job – the acting was great. Jaden’s little jokes were cute as well. However, I did end up feeling very attached to this film. I’m a very sentimental person, especially when it comes to movies, yet I wasn’t even near teary-eyed watching this. The ending was predictable. I don’t know, maybe it’s because I’ve seen/read similar situations and such in my Social Justice class that didn’t end up so predictable. In my opinion, some parts were interesting and I don’t think it’s a bad film. Hah, I kept wondering why he couldn’t get an extra job or something beforehand.

I’ve liked films with much cheesier endings and such, so I guess i just had high expectations and was disappointed.
