When I discovered this section of reviews on movie stars and directors at mouthshut I was thrilled. Out of all of the names that were listed in this column I thought, ?what an excellent opportunity to write a profile and review on this noted actor, Will Smith.?
I especially enjoyed JDREW21564's review on Alfred Hitchcock. Good luck JDREW21564 and do keep up the wonderful writing. It is because of your outstanding review on Alfred Hitchcock you have motivated, and inspired me to write a review on this heartfelt actor and musician, Will Smith. Will Smith is an actor whose work I found to be quite enjoyable and entertaining. I find his sci-fi movies to be most enjoyable and filled with life, comedy and adventure. Will has a unique and funny way of making things look good even in the most difficult movie scenes.
I also enjoy his charm and wit that he skillfully combines with his acting. In his lead role in the summer smash hit ''Independence day'' Will does wonders in the closing scene when going to combat with the invaders/aliens as he laughed in fear while traveling through the ski to fight. He and his partner eventually wins this battle with a close and chilling call. He does more excellent work in ''Men in Black 1'' while in the most challenging moments and confrontations with aliens, and authority he still manages to pass the test and look good. Will's great acting skills keeps the viewer in moments of laughter and expectancy, he never leaves the viewer in a mystery.
