Forrest Gump

The title character leads viewers through an accidental travelogue of American social history from the early 1960s through the present in this revisionist fable. Vietnam,... more...desegregation, Watergate and more are presented from the perspective of Hanks' lovably slow-witted character as he finds himself embroiled in situations he can't quite comprehend. Academy Award Nominations: 13, including Best Picture, Best Actor--Tom Hanks, and Best Director. Academy Awards: 6, including Best Picture, Director, Actor and Adapted Screenplay.

"Life is like a box of chocolate..."

You would always remember that when you watched this movie. Tom Hanks as Forrest Gump played in this movie really impressively. Forrest Gump is an athlete, a US Army, a hero, a businessman, a record breaker and he is a lucky person.

This is a very entertaining yet touching movie. Watching this you would drowned you to the little world of Greenbow County, which the movie is set. The hilarious scenes, along with the unforgettable scenes in this movie would makes you, the drama lovers, fall to this movie and pick this as your all time fave movie.

I like this movie because the story is not so hard to understand, yet you would get so much meaning from this so you can learn many thing at once. It is entertaining, the actors played really well, especially Tom Hanks, and you even able to see the special appearance of little Haley Joel Osment.
