A review of《the pursuit of happiness》 I have seen《The Pursuit of Happiness》 several days ago , but I can?t forget Chris and his spirits until now . To be honest , this move is really a big shock to me , and the strong power in Chris has been influencing me all the time .

Characters and the climate

There are mainly three characters : Chris Gardner 、Christopher、 Linda ,and the leading character is Chris Gardner ,the father. The whole atmosphere is positive ,though there is a large part describing the bitter struggles of Chris ,his spirit is inspiring , and there is no disappear but hope and stable belief in happiness.

Development of events

The story of Chris Gardner is divided into six part ,I will introduce them one by one .

Part one : Riding the bus

It was in San Francisco 1981, Chris spent all his money on buying medical equipments , but later he found that they were unpopular among doctors ,because they were expensive and almost useless . everyday he did his best to promote the equipment to doctors ,but he can?t earn enough for the rent and kindergarten , his life was not easy .

Part two: Being stupid

In this part ,Chris had to apply for a work as a stock woker ,so he left the medical equipment with a girl ,but the girl took it away ! what a accident !

Part three : Running

He rann after the girl who had stolen the equipment ,finally ,he took it back ,another situation is that he had no money for the taxi ,so he escaped ;Third ,he was sent to the prison for owing the taxes ,and the next morning ,he ran to the stock company for a interview with paint stains on his body .

Part four : Internship

Chris got the job as a internship for six months without salary ,,it was really a

hard time for him ,he had to sell the equipment while working as a internship. Afterall , he earned some money from the medical equipments

Part five : Paying taxes

In this part ,there was a big hit to him ,the government took $600 from his account and he only had $21.33 left ,he was broke again .this part was the most impressive but inspiring one .During that time ,he and his son spent a night in the WC ,and lived in the church hospice for many days ,although there were many barriers ,he carried on seeking for the happiness.

Part six : Happiness

It was an exciting part ,Chris was succeed ,and he did it finally ,he became a successful stock worker!

My views on the story

After the move ,I thought of many things :we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equally , that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights ,that among these are life ,liberty and the pursuit of happiness . I think Chris must have read the above paragraph for many times and believed it unswervingly.

At the beginning of the move, after Chris has sent Christopher to the kindergarten , he saw a wrong word on the wall ,and said the famous sentence : There is no ?Y? in happiness ,the only thing we can do is striving for our own happiness voluntarily .Just like Chris do.

The silly scene of taking a bus was a part of Chris Gardner?s life , in the move , Chris Gardner ,a poor father ,who had his wife left him ,because she could?t handle her life without financial security .while Chris was selling medical equipment to doctors , she decided get away from her poor family . Although under great pressure , Chris chose to stick it out, and fight for what he known he can do ,for him ,and for his son. He is strong in spirit ,whatever barriers he meet ,he just continued his work and never stopped running .but it looks like that god likes to play tricks with him , he had gone through more hardships than others before the final success .

I think it is really a good move ,we are unique and we are ourselves ,just hold a

dream and do what you can do ,and do your best ,don?t ever let somebody tell you that you can?t do something .If you want something ,go and get it . It is said that the move is from a true story ,so we should believe the sentence that “Everything is possible” .

Like Chris?s forefathers ,who posses the desire and the passion to live it ,who dream the American dream . In the end he finally made his dream come true ,he became a banker. “Hey ,dad ,listen to this ,knock, knock ”I know who was there .he was happiness .

The Pursuit of Happiness is really an excellent move , after watching it ,I can?t calm my heart down for a long time,there are tears on my face ,but smile in my heart ,I think Chris is a good example for all of us ,just be optimistic and go to realize your dream.

第二篇：电影《当幸福来敲门》影评

电影《当幸福来敲门》影评

电影讲述的是一位美国推销员的真实故事，一个可望为家庭带来幸福而努力工作的人。主人公Chris Gardner由威尔.史密斯饰演，他爱自己的妻子和可爱的儿子，他会为幼儿园门外写错的单词而担忧，仅仅是因为怕这些东西误导了他年幼的儿子。

电影里没有漂亮的演员，花哨的剪辑，也没有精彩的配乐，但却有一个真实的好故事，有一个足以让我坐在电脑前看完并为之感动的故事，威尔饰演的主人公因生意上的失败带来了生活的窘困窘，爱她的妻子也因无法忍受生活上的压力痛苦的离他而去，但他吉利的留下自己的儿子，他始终相信经过他的奴隶一定可以带给儿子幸福。

但事实却是那样的残酷，甚至连电脑前的我也因为他感到不公，替她抱怨命运的不公平。然而，Chris却没有放弃奔波与忙碌，经过不懈的努力，换来的仅仅是一个没有薪水的实习岗位，六个月的实习时间充斥着紧忙碌，他在这种紧张于忙碌中学习与工作，同时还要为生活而奔波，因为此时他已经没有了栖身之所。买些，带着儿子借助教堂，或是睡在地铁车里，甚至是公共厕所里，六个月愈发紧张窘迫的生活以及二十选一残酷的竞争压力，真不知道他还能个支撑多久。

我在心里默默的为他祈祷，祈求上天赐予他哪怕液体点点幸福，或是一个住处。

也许是生活的压力实在太重，也许是觉得愧对自己年幼的儿子，那一夜她在厕所里第一次哭了。

接下来还是重复紧张的生活学习与工作，依然是穿梭于各种大小街道，依旧是霉运不断，但Chris看起来永远是那样的又升级有活力。六个月的残酷考核过后，他终于在众多竞争者中脱颖而出，获得了这份股市交易员的工作，我压抑已久的泪水也随着威尔幸福的眼泪泉涌般流出，是感动还是什么已无从知晓。当幸福来敲门的那一刻，才真正觉得先前的所有艰辛与痛苦都是值得的，之后，Chris获得了一系列的成功，最后进军华尔街，这是一个完美的结局。

看完这部电影，我想到了《生命不能承受之情》里的一句话：生活时常会让

我们感到坚信，并会让我们无数次目睹生命在各种重压之下的扭曲与变形。但Chris最终成功了。就算一个男人面临再窘迫的环境，他至少可以拥有自尊，梦想以及明天，坚持不懈的努力，才能承受生命不可承受之重。

看完电影中的故事，我觉得全身充满力量，遇阻人工相比，我的命运要好得多，我对未来的生命充满希望，我恨不得在半夜起床晚成为王的设计图稿。因为Chris让我相信，幸福会敲响每个肯付出肯努力的人的大门。

次数“天将降大任于斯人也，必先苦其心志，劳其筋骨，饿其体肤，空乏其身，星期乱其所为，所以动心忍性，增益其所不能。”也许这是对这部影片最好的诠释了。
