Cons: its a flawless movie
Last night i was in for a drag - i had nothing to do on a Saturday, what else could i do but retreat to the trusty T.V and what was on.? 'Forrest Gump' - something i hadn't seen in years.
From that beginning piano riff i was sucked in and...

Pros: Leaves you thinking about it
Cons: some minor sour taste scenes
Forrest Gump must hold the record for the most awkwardly titled picture of the decade. It's a long, easy-going movie, very episodic, and for some time makes you wonder if it knows where it's going. I was intermittently irritated by it during the first...

Pros: Tom Hanks is great, historical references aplenty, good special effects.
Cons: The end dragged a little bit.
I love this movie. It's one of my favorites of all time. I love it for so many reason...excellent acting, compelling story, the way it weaves in the history of the last fifty years...and those are just a few things!
Forrest Gump is about a...

Pros: The Story, acting, cinematography
Cons: It gives the wrong message about some things
When I first saw this film at the theatre I really wasn't noticing that the movie was a bit over three hours long. I was too into the film. You can't help but wonder what kind of adventure Forrest is gonna have next.
Either you'll love this film or...

This movie was an incredible story of a young boy with disabilities. He grows up through life learning so much....beautifully made movie.Tom Hanks can only have done this movie with such meaning and understanding. No one could have done it any better...

Pros: Well directed, Well acted.
Cons: Not the movie you might expect.
I didn't see this movie until it came out on video and I will preface my opinions by admitting that part of my negative response is due to the fact that by the time I saw the movie I had over a year's worth of word of mouth to overcome.
I will...

Pros: Makes you stop and think
Cons: Has a couple of graphic (violent) scenes and mild language
Usually when it comes to viewing life, you always see things one way. Once you see it through the eyes of a "simple" man, you will never see life the same way again. Forrest Gump will definitely change your perspective on life.

Pros: Interesting "news" footage.
Cons: A fairly dull movie.
I've had the opportunity to see "Forrest Gump" several times on video in the past five years. While I won't say I dislike the movie, I don't have any strong positive reactions towards it either. It's a film which I'm pretty neutral towards;...

Pros: Funny, moving
Cons: nothing
I absolutely loved Forrest Gump. This was a great movie starring one of the greatest actors alive, Tom Hanks. I adored it. It was so sweet. It told a great story of a man who was simple in more ways than one. But he went though all aspects of life...

Pros: Feel-good movie, triumph of innocence
Cons: Happens only in Reel life
This movie is a sort of a 20th century fairy tale where simplicity, honesty and naivete, are the only traits of the protagonist in his various tumbles and successes in life. Only problem is it seems too good to be true.
I found the movie very...

Pros: Good themes, good computer work
Cons: Long timewise, storyline lags at some points
I have two different e-pinions on this movie.
I was a junior in high school, and my mom's colleague at work taped Forrest Gump for her; she brought it home from work one day. It was a day when everything on TV was a rerun, and since...

Pros: Wonderful story with wonderful characters
Cons: Not long enough!
I could probably name fifty different reasons why Forrest Gump is my favorite movie of all time. But instead, I will condense them all into this one reason: I love Forrest Gump so much because each time I see it, there are more details, scenes, people,...

Pros: GREAT FUNNY AND ENTERTAINING
Cons: None found
Mr. Tom Hanks, has become one of the best actors to grace the cinema. It seems that he has a talent to adapt to whatever character role he is asked to and accepts to portray. Even the silly roles like those he endured during the early part of his...

Pros: Fascinating Special Effects
Cons: Rambling plot and dialogue
hours of enjoyment from "Forest Gump". This was not only a history of the life of an ordinary man with an extraordinary life...it's an American experience history.
Forest Gump, Tom Hanks, is a mentally challenged young man and this...
