Forest GumpBest movie I've ever watched! Have to view it at least 100 times to catch each little gem of wisdom in the excellent dialogue. I'll never tire of this movie.......you gotta love Tom Hanks, right? I bought it because I can't catch it often enough on TV. Talk about the past 50 years in a capsule!

It is a good movie. I have it on dvd. My mother is 75 and she wanted this movie. My mother can't get the hang of running a dvd player. So that is why I bought it on VHS.

What Can You Say?Review created: 08/11/07

We all are very much aware of what an outstanding Actor Tom Hanks is, but this surpasses our previous admiration considerably! He was able to portray a simple, somewhat retarded young man who achieved more in his life than than the average men could. His love for his 'Mama" (Sally Fields must have enjoyed this role!) was more than any Mother could hope her child would have for them throughout their lives. Then there was his love for Bubba, and how he carried out a wish Bubba had for his mama, too was amazing in that no one knew about it but Forrest. His integrity was consistent throughout his life. He was unfailing in his love for 'My Jenny', and the son they created was what held him together when all else fell apart. Gary Senise was a real character as 'Captain Dan', a man from a long line of Army 'Lifers' who preferred death rather than returning with his men defeated in Vietnam, much less persomally crippled. I love the way the beginning of the movie is tied with the end by a simple feather. This is an amazing story, well worth the time. I highly recommend it!

It's In My Top 10 All Time Favorite Movies!Review created: 01/07/07
by:
This is a story of tragedies and struggle but also a film of love and encouragement. A simple man with the Midas touch goes through so many of lifes tragedies with love and encouragement. A self made millionaire who finally gets what he wants, the love of his Jenny, only to lose her in the end but appreciates every moment. This movie truly touches the heart.

FORREST GUMP : The Greatness Of Staying InnocentReview created: 08/13/01

The protagonist is a word I learned early on in English class. Protagonist means leading figure in a work of drama. In many films there is a main character but he is overshadowed by the plot of the film. In this film, Forrest Gump is the film, he makes it all work. This happens with the genius of Tom Hanks who transforms himself into the character of Forrest Gump. He does it so well that we start to feel for Gump as if he were our own child or relative. Its nice to watch a movie where you see yourself rooting for things to go well for the main character. It is only a film yet it was so well...

Aside from all of the moral philosophy, the biggest plot point of Forrest Gump is that if the title character had really existed, he would be the most important person of our time. Not only did he invent Elvis Presley's highly censored leg performance movements; he was a war hero who won the Congressional Medal of Armor; he was the best runningback in the history of the University of Alabama; he improved relations with China through his ping pong skills; he created a shrimping business that became a household name (which is remarkable, as there is no shrimping business that is a household...

Why in the world does everyone like this movie so stinking much? Even people who I consider to have good taste in movies love this flick while I just don t get it. Maybe it just didn t click with me somehow; it was a struggle for me to even get to the end. When it was over the only thing I could think of was, I ll never get those 2 hours of my life back. The only half-decent thing to come out of the movie was a Weird Al parody song/video. I usually don t review movies without also reviewing DVD extras and such, but I m making an exception for carl_lazarevic's "I m Sorry but You re Just Plain..

Forrest Gump is a movie that tells the tale of a generation. Forrest Gump, the character, is in many ways the embodiment of the Baby Boomer generation. He is in love with the reckless idealist, he has an extraordinarily naive and uncynical view on life, he works hard and believes the best about people. We're amazed when everything turns out right for Forrest, his dogged faith in people pays off, his mourning heals him, and his steadfast values see him through. And yet, how better to characterize the sometimes tragic, but mostly exuberant generation of Boomers? While Forrest remains an...

I Love Getting Lost in this Forrest!Review created: 05/22/00

Pros:
Forrest Gump may not be too "bright," but he has a heart of pure gold and more wisdom than most of us could hope to possess

"Life is like a box of chocolates: you never know what you're gonna get." This quote from "Forrest Gump" became a household phrase when the movie came out five years ago. Based on a book by the same name which I understand has a much harsher protagonist, this movie is a historical documentary, comedy, drama, action, and romance all rolled into one. And it has proved many times over to be more than the sum of these impressive parts. Tom Hanks ambitiously took on the project despite the doubts of producers and directors. To everyone's astonishment, when given a choice of being paid a lump sum...
