highly recommended

The Academy Award winner for Best Picture, Best Director Robert Zemeckis, and Best Actor Tom Hanks, this unlikely story of a slow-witted but good-hearted man somehow at the center of the pivotal events of the 20th century is a funny and heartwarming epic. Hanks plays the title character, a shy Southern boy in love with his childhood best friend (Robin Wright) who finds that his ability to run fast takes him places. As an All-Star football player he meets John F. Kennedy; as a soldier in Vietnam he's a war hero; and as a world champion Ping-Pong player he's hailed by Richard Nixon. Becoming a successful shrimp-boat captain, he still yearns for the love of his life, who takes a quite different and much sadder path in life. The visual effects incorporating Hanks into existing newsreel footage is both funny and impressive, but the heart of the film lies in its sweet love story and in the triumphant performance of Hanks as an unassuming soul who savors the most from his life and times. --Robert Lane

Favorite Movie

One of my most favorite movies of all time. Destined to be a classic. I laughed and cryed....truly. 5 stars!

Forrest Gump

It's story that haunts a person. Each time its seen you find something you hadn't noticed before.

Run Forrest! Run!

Still one of my favorite movies! What a great story! Even though it's a bit longer than most, this is one for the movie appreciation classes of the future! From every angle of movie-making (how in the world did they create Tom Hanks shaking the president's hand?) this one reminds me of Citizen Kane and the lengths Orson Welles went through to create a movie for the ages. Phenomenal!

Wonderful!

This movie is a classic! Going with the characters through their times of life and important times of change through people's live's/love's is beautiful. Also, the innocence that Gump brings to life is wonderful.

Momma always said life is like a box of chocolates you never know what your going to get!!

I love this movies it shows life can be a big adventure.
I can relate cause I'm learning disabled, I learn slow.
I remember when kids uses to call me stupid, cause I didn't
learn the way they did.
It's sad how mean kids can be, but just remember kids usually
do what they see their parents do.
I think this is one of Tom Hank's best movies.
I rate this movie a 10 from 1to10!!
