yep, i watched it, and really liked it.
i felt very uncomfortable during the whole film because you just want this guy to get a break, but things just keep getting worse. i cried a little, and appreciated the ending. what made the movie good was the fact it is based on a true story. hard to believe.
makes you want to aim for your goals though, and maybe work even harder on achieving them.
as far as wil smith? i think he did pretty good in the role.
