Who doesn't love Will Smith? Will Smith has been with me from my childhood up until now. From "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" to his numerous movies, I typically expect to enjoy a Will Smith movie every few months or so. Here is my top ten list of Will Smith movies.

10. Shark Tale

This is a hilarious, animated movie about a fish and a vegetarian shark joining forces in order to get what each of them desires. When a shark dies, Oscar (voiced by Will Smith) takes credit, and with Lenny (voiced by Jack Black) decides to create a persona where Oscar is a shark slayer. How long can their facade last?

9. I. Robot

In this film, Will Smith plays detective Del Spooner, a cop who has a fear of robots in a robot-centered world. When a murder occurs that no human could have possibly committed, It is up to Spooner to solve the crime.


8. Men in Black (series)

This is another movie in which Will Smith plays a police officer. The only difference here is that instead of robots, he is facing threats that our planet isn't quite ready to embrace. With hi-tech weaponry, an experienced partner, and space worms, Jay and Kay will take on any aliens who threaten Earth.

7. Bad Boys (series)

This is the last last cop movie on this list. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence play two cops who investigate a case about stolen heroin while also protecting a witness to a murder. This movie series is filled with enough action and comedy to keep you entertained.


6. Hitch

Moving away from cops and action and into love and comedy, Will Smith plays a love doctor who helps other men find love. However, his skills are put to the test when he tries them on a gossip columnist played by Eva Mendas.

5. Enemy of the State

Corrupt politicians, NSA surveillance, and Murder are all wrapped into this nice, little package called Enemy of the State. When Lawyer Robert Dean is framed for murder because a videotape detailing the real murder somehow ends up his is possession. He has to avoid being caught all while trying to prove his innocence.

4. Seven Pounds

This is arguably one of the best films about redemption in our lifetime. Seven Pounds follows Ben, a man with deep secrets as he attempts to change the life of seven people for the better. If this movie doesn't touch even the coldest of hearts, nothing will.

3. I am Legend

After a deadly virus kills and transforms humanity into monsters, One survivor and his dog attempts to find a cure against all odds.

2. The Pursuit of Happiness

Did I say that if Seven Pounds doesn't touch your heart, nothing will? Well this movie might. Based on true events, Will Smith plays Chris Gardner, a salesmen who gets custody of his, son played by Jaden Smith. As life gets harder, Gardner struggles with being in poverty, being homeless, and caring for his son. The lengths he goes in order to fight for a better life should be inspiration for us all.


1. Independence Day

A classic is simply all I would need to say about this movie. Before movies like "The Battle of Los Angeles", "War of the Worlds" and well..."The Avengers," Alien Invasion was done right with Independence Day. As strange events start occurring on earth it is up to a group of people to battle near impossible circumstances.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
