Why does Will Smith get so much props for Pursuit of Happiness?

[The Devil's Advocate]

A quote with no credible link? How do we know you ain't write that breh?

Again..... One thing about Hollywood is they no how to correct a problem and if you are good they will back you but if you are overrated you will soon be exposed and it's over. Just fall back to supporting cast and in some cases straight to DVD flicks ala a Cuba Gooding Jr.


Also him being black as a knock on him, come on, if dude really wasn't that talented or just an average actors he would prolly still be on network tv playing a side character on some Fox or CW show.

damn man... brother can't get no faith... why the fukk would i come in here trying to make up quotes from producers of movies that came out years ago... to shyt on will smith??


Will Smith Interview - The Pursuit of Happyness, Working with Jaden Smith, I Am Legend

page 2... i trust you can find it yourself

i never said he wasn't good or anything else... the question is why does he get props for this

the answer is it's not his usual, i'm will smith doing my will smith faces and jokes, like every other movie... that's what he said.. in his own words

add to the fact he didn't have to ACT like it was his son, because it was his son

i think will is a great action star and comedic actor.. that's why 99% of his movies are one or the other
