The Pursuit of Happyness is really bad. Will Smith's inspirational moment is going to the New York Stock Exchange and seeing all the happy rich guys in suits walking around, and wanting to be like them. Having to do stuff like brown-nose executives, sleep in train station bathrooms and pull his son out of daycare due to lack of money are presented not as flaws of the system but evidence of Smith's smart bootstraps-oriented thinking. This movie is the Mein Kampf of liberalism.

    it’s a really strange choice that the two leads (and members of the royal family) are the only characters designed to look like real uncanny people, and everyone else looks like a caricature.

    White (coded) people are the main characters of human history. Only white people can be good and free and intelligent and adventurous.

      I mean real talk I suspect the two leads are animated using some measure of rotoscoping or motion capture and that's the main reason for it

      Also funny thing about this, the real message of the film is about why all forms of public transportation are bad, so yes this is one of the most lib films ever
