The sacrifices this father made to raise the money for a shelter for his son has been so heartfelt.

Every time I watch this movie, I am reminded of all the financial stress my parents had to go through while raising me. Even though I rarely got to see them due to work, I felt compelled to be the best student in school in order for me to take care of them in the future. I am forever grateful, thank you!

Hope you told them.... Tellin the KZread community really doesn't make much sense as 99.9% of the viewers don't give a flip. Guess lot of folks just need to share.... Personally proud of you that at such a young age you could set a goal so serious. At that age, with parents that totally ignored me, well until time to whip me like a mining mule for an imagined infraction, my last thot would be to attain greatness so I could take care of them. They are 90 and 80 something in 2024 and haven't seen them in months. They don't remember the "bad" years. Have two sisters that want everything they have taking care of them. So how does this all sound to you? Useless, right? Sorry. Bad day. Hope your life was better and that you achieved great success. Compared to my beginnings I'm a frigging billionaire. I've given back ten times what I recieved....ten times nothing except showing up when the sisters were too busy and no reward in it for them. Life's a hoot sometimes.

My dad took my brother and I to see this movie when we were kids. Honestly, this was one of the greatest movies Will has ever done.

This movie makes me cry everytime I watch it. It’s that inspirational man.

Motels are freaking expensive. I lived in an “extended stay hotel” (it was a motel) and it cost $1k a WEEK and that was 10 years ago!! It was one room and a bathroom. And I don’t mean one bedroom, I mean you walk in the front door from the parking lot and it’s just a room with a bed and tv, “full size” fridge, one stove top burner and a sink and then a bathroom. $1m A WEEK!!! Housekeeping came once a week to empty trash, sweep and mop half ass and change the bedding (only what looked dirty. And it was crazy how many families stayed there who just weren’t approved for a lease on an actual house or apartment due to their credit

Perfectly explained + showing best scenes

I saw this movie, but I didn't realize how hard of a time this person had, while trying to get a job. I don't understand why the wife left, who is not being abused. I understand that she also wasn't able to find work, so went where she could. It would have been a blessing for them to stay together, but we don't really get to see what the real problems were. Now, I have never seen anyone who deserves to be rich. I've had hard times, but God has blessed my hard times to include a place to stay. Prayers. No-one in this country should be homeless. I've seen the homeless refuse an apartment. They need mental care.

Dam that 1 guy didnt even realize that he was about to get the taste buds slapped out of him for mispelling happiness 🤣

I saw this movie. Made me cry. All the struggles he had.. everything😢😢and he survived.. this shows that no matter how down you are.. no matter how many failures you encountered. Its always YOU who will make a decision for yourself. Whether to pursue or just be in a situation where you are. Its the motivation that keeps us to move forward..❤❤❤ we can find motivation within ourselves.. ❤❤

Nice movie. But I fell so bad that wherever he wanna have his breakthrough, one distraction or the other emerge.

Great movie ❤️ Will and Jaden did a great job, and did Chris proud ❤️✊🏽

I remember this movie. This is the movie I cried when I watch it.

The lever... It has been added usually at top of steps and pushing down on it will open the door from the lever so it is not necessary to walk to the door to open it for guests!❤ I miss using it and my cousins and I would race to the lever just to have a excuse to use it when we were children!!! ❤It was fun!!!❤

Sometimes this reminds me of when i was little. I realized i didn't know things were tough i just thought it was fun and how things were.

What a quality 😍

The lever at the at the stair case is for wheelchair going up and down the stairs

The homeless man went on to make an international laughing stock of himself by assaulting a comedian on stage for telling a mild joke about his self important wife

this shit right here made me tear a few times throughout the movie. it was so good.

Maybe him constantly see his scanners is a sign

11:37 at first I thought it was for an elevator but then I saw it was a Bell crank lever

the lever is a mechanical means of opening the downstairs door from upstairs

In pursuit as we speak just being patient

Since I haven't seen anyone speak on the question in the video, I believe that was a lever at the tops of stairs in old homes to open the door from the top of the stairs.

Will Smith is a fitting actor for this film because just like in the movie he's full of unnecessary drama and bad (sometimes impulsive) choices. * Taking huge risk by buying bone density scanner inventory with life savings and becoming a salesman ✅ * Not paying taxes on earned income ✅ * Always showing up late and proceeding to not pay parking fines ✅ * Getting an unpaid internship ✅

I can’t watch this movie, because me and my family been through this before
