This film has a sad aspect to it for most of the film but it also shows how many people struggle in their everyday lives and nobody seems to be there to help them. Will Smith conveys the message to the audience that even when your life seems to be at rock bottom there is always a shred of hope that you have to grab hold of and you can't let go.
