This is a movie that I came to see without knowing anything about it except that it was a movie starring Will Smith.
It is the story of a father who is living hard day by day. The main character, Chris, doesn't perform very well, but he sells medical devices that cost more than similar products. His wife works overtime and overtime at the laundry, but his family's circumstances do not improve.
He used to think that, my beloved son is so helpless that I have to send him to kindergarten, where all he can do is watch TV all day. Unable to bear the rent and taxes, her wife abandons her husband and children and leaves for New York.
In the end, Chris was kicked out of her rented house and stayed with her child in a shabby motel. He works as an intern for six months without a penny salary and needs to be evaluated. His written exam must be almost perfect, and his achievements during his internship mean only one person out of over 20 people is hired. Chris gets kicked out of the motel room as well.
The night he had to go home holding his son he loved so much, he hugs his sleeping son and weeps hot. Since then, he has had to stand in endless lines every day to get into the homeless quarters provided by the church. Others work solely on internships, but Chris has to take care of his son and find a place to sleep that day.
The story that Chris' son Christopher told his father in the middle of the movie is very impressive.
Once upon a time there was a man who believed in God. One day, while he was drowning, a passing boat came and tried to save him. But he said, 'I believe in God. God will save me,' he said, refusing to rescue.
After a while, another boat came and tried to rescue him. He said, 'I believe in God. God will save me,' he said, refusing to rescue.
In the end, he died, and he went to heaven and met the gods. 'Why didn't you save me?'
Then God did it. 'Didn't I send ships twice?'
Isn't that funny?
We are constantly searching for happiness in our lives. Could it be that we are ignoring God's small hand to give us happiness???
Well... it was a movie that made me think like that.
It's a Heartwarming and delightful movie that's worth watching with family and loved ones. I am sure it goona touch you in some ways.
