Some movies to recommend....

If you want to just grab a DVD and just chill at home, the following are my personal recommendations.......

The Pursuit of Happyness
I googled the movie and found that it was based on a true story. It made the movie very special to me.
This show was very inspirational and so touching that it brought tears to my eyes. A good watch for anyone who feels like they are forever struggling and never seem to be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Note: At the last scene, as Will Smith walks off to the sunset with his son, you will be able to see the real "Chris Gardner" walk past. Will Smith turns around and gives him a special smile. It was a very pleasant way to end the movie.

An Inconvenient Truth
A movie done by Former US Vice President Al Gore. This movie talks about global warming.
An excerpt from the official website:

Humanity is sitting on a ticking time bomb. If the vast majority of the world's scientists are right, we have just ten years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our entire planet into a tail-spin of epic destruction involving extreme weather, floods, droughts, epidemics and killer heat waves beyond anything we have ever experienced.
I liked the presentation of the movie and although I've read and heard many negative comments made by people criticizing the "facts" presented by Al Gore, I ultimately think it does no one any harm and everyone alot of good if we all can learn to protect our environment. So just take it for what it is worth.
