What was the last Will Smith film that you genuinely loved?


Forget about the freaking slap controversy & all that shit. What was the last project of his that was good, in your opinion.

I was gonna say Bad Boys 3 but he just ok in that. Also, that was a Martin Lawrence joint for me. His stole every scene imo. It just made me miss seeing Martin on the big screen

Apart from that, the last film of his that I genuinely liked was Men in Black 3. Literally a decade ago.

He used to be like one of my favorite actors from my mid teens to my early twenties. Never missed his films. Then he just fell off.

I wondered why he stopped making good shit, then I remembered that it was the period when he tried to force his family, especially his kids onto the world.

And nobody was having it. πŸ˜†

I liked Pursuit of Happyness. It is the last movie he made, that I watched, that made me feel something great. There has been many movies he made since then, but I havent watched them all. I didnt like After Earth as much as I liked Pursuit of Happyness.

After Earth is dogshit, man.

The whole concept that "You conquer fear by no longer feeling it" is a ridiculous notion. Fear is a powerful motivator as well as crippling. Double-edged sword that we must conquer, but we still FEEL it. That never goes away.

I like M. Night Shyamalan, very much, but this is a movie that is low/middle of his list of movies for me.

Also, they sucked the charisma/charm outta Will Smith & we had to watch his kid for like 2 hours.

It was so painful to watch him try to "act"

reply

he plays himself in everyone, so take your pick

Focus (2015) which I like it mainly for Margot Robbie and then I would probably say I Am Legend (2007)

reply

The opening con of Focus is freaking amazing.

The rest of the movie just was a downward spiral after that. At least for me.

Peaked in the opening, in my opinion.

My favorite con was the american football sequence! Loved how it went from betting on the crowd for a few bucks to a multi-million dollar bet with a whale in box seats. Can't go wrong with B.D. Wong too!

🎢 Woo woo! 🎢

THAT was the one I was referring to. Sorry I wasn't more specific.

That was absolutely fantastic. The rest of the film was honestly a letdown after that

I don't think I've ever loved a Will Smith film.

Fair enough
