    Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

    Did you people see the same film I saw?

    TrueHello

    Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

    A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

    The Fresh Prince Of Bel-AirThe origin of Will Smith's fame and too many mentions from The Graham Norton Show got me to binge watch this series which I think has a potential to be a typical one-time-watch sitcom. The creators made the relations pretty much clear from the first frame now all one seek and wait for is their character development through this journey with hopefully no dips on content or humor. The relation between Will Smith and Tatyana Ali seemed interesting at first but wasn't explored to that extent and instead all the guns were directed towards Alfonso Rebeiro (his portrayal of Carlton is the highlight of the series, it is flat out hilarious) whose sibling rivalry ups the ante of the series and James Avery's intense relation with Will that helps bind it all. The series walks on light and breezy path with a sense of awareness of its existence that opens this whole new floor where they access and visits places where only parody goes to which is kind of eerie to encounter. This huge bold step comes with both pros and cons where pro is that it draws out most of its laugh and con being when the series attempts to go on a more dramatic path the audience somehow feels disconnected to it and the emotions comes out a bit shallow which undermines the whole build-up that they usually tend to work for the whole episode. The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air similar to its protagonist, is just goofy where the priority is the punch line of the joke and nothing else.

    I'd only came into this show in the mid-1990s when it was nearly ending. I later caught some random episodes as reruns. But it was my first time seeing Will Smith (before Independence Day and Men in Black) and it's one of my favorite James Avery (RIP) roles (who was the original Shredder from TMNT though I didn't know his name back then). But Smith and Avery had so much chemistry on the show, which was helped by Avery's TV wife and kids, especially Carlton, who would later host AFV. I'm not sure what happened to the others, but I hope they're doing well! It's funny, touching, sometimes emotional, sweet and good for those of you wanting a wholesome family sitcom. Let's see if we can find some reruns somewhere, okay?

    I believe everyone born in the 90s or has seen Fresh Prince can rap along to that catchy song.What set Fresh Prince apart from it's peers is that as much as it was full of laughs,it that it took it characters seriously.At times it even got heartbreaking like the time Will reunited with his Father only to loose him.It also wasn't afraid to address the issues that the black community faces,and still do.Overall Fresh Prince is like your favorite song that you can't help but dance along to whenever it's on.

    I didn't used to watch this show as a kid. How I found this out was when I was in 8th grade and when we had nothing else to do, our teacher put this in one time and then I couldn't get enough of it. So, I tried to catch it on at night. Though, now they do not show it on Nick@nite anymore. I have to catch it on somewhere else. It was always funny. Will was always cracking a joke and fighting with his brother and everyone in the house and getting into trouble. It was always a good thing to watch.
