The Pursuit of Happyness: A capsule review

[spqrblues]

Excellent performances by Will Smith and son in a relentlessly depressing movie about a man who pursues wealth at the expense of his small child. Audiences are to feel uplifted by the bonding he does with his boy as he drags him unnecessarily through the depths.

I saw this at a midnight show. I might get 2007 off to a start by writing up a full review on Outside Food. But I warn you, it will be scathing.

And "happyness" = money. Other people? Pfft. You can buy new people. As long as you make a million bucks, anything is worth it in the end, right? Right?
