Will Smith is a depressing bastard in this movie, but with good cause. He hides a deep dark secret and he seems both moody and angry as he tries to "help" people with their problems. Smith plays Ben, an aerospace engineer who despite all of his family's warnings seems determined to help people who are in need. Haunted by a horrible accident and the loss of his life it seems he has little left to live for, until he meets Emily (Rosario Dawson). He is determined to help her and several other people in order to amend himself.
Played subtly and wonderfully by Smith and his supporting cast, this movie is great but a real downer. If you're on the verge of suicide don't watch this one, watch a Christmas special or a Frank Capra movie. But if you want a real drama, with real emotions, and a great story, this is a good film. Fine performances, well written, and acted, I liked this one. It was a surprise because I'm not a huge fan of Will Smith. He's good here because he under acts for once. Just Queue It!
