Pros: Vietnam sequence -- that's about it Cons: Boring, depressing, dumb story/premise
Forrest Gump has to be one of the most overrated movies of the decade. Maybe there's some big picture that I'm missing, but it's just not that good. It's depressing, boring, and I didn't really care about the characters or situations. Forrest Gump is...

Pros: everything about this movie was great. Tom Hanks is the man Cons: absolutely none to speak of
Rarely do I love movies as much as I love the movie Forrest Gump. I think that aside from Sleepless in Seattle, it's my favorite Tom Hank's film.
This is a movie for anyone and everyone. I have seen it over 20 times and still find pleasure in...

Pros: Moving plot and mostly good characters Cons: annoying "Gumpisms" and slightly sappy in parts
I was not so impressed with this movie when I first saw it. I think because it was so over-hyped. However, it was a very sweet movie and I did enjoy watching it. The characters were so real and so emotional that you can't help getting involved. And the...

Pros: good Cons: good
I saw this move for the first time not to long ago. I feel that forrest gump is one of the top ten move of the 90's and there was a lot of good move. But this one had a lot of real story of are past that would help us in the furture. I feel Tom Hanks...

Pros: Great Acting, Already a Classic Cons: Could be to long for some
I don't know about you, but "Forrest Gump" is one of my favorite movies. Yeah, there was a lot of hype attatched, but it was deserved hype. Forrest Gump is a boy who is born with a slight retardation, a lower I.Q than normal. Tom Hanks' acting...

Pros: Fabulous story Cons: Nothing at all
There are movies out there that make you feel like you've witnessed the best life has to offer. Whether we are unhappy about our looks or anything else we may be lacking, Forrest Gump shows that anything can happen to anyone at anytime.
The story...

Pros: Every Dog has it's Day Cons: No Hidden Agendas
There is no question that Hollywood often seems to have a hidden agenda when it comes to movies.
Air Force One was wasted on me- because all I could concentrate on was that the Vice President played by Glen Close was a weak character and I couldn't...

Pros: The point of view of Forrest Gump Cons: The point of view of Forrest Gump
This movie has grasped a hold of my heart from the first time I saw it. I love this movie and probably have seen it over 30 times. The story is of a not so smart man's life, from his point of view. He also has a girlfriend by the name of Jenny, that...

Pros: great love story, very interesting Cons: none
Forrest Gump...possibly the greatest movie i've ever seen.
The moments with the smile on the t-shirt and the bumper sticker, along with the flashbacks in time were all very inspired.
the movie showed the true devotion of a naive man in a cruel...

Pros: see review Cons: see review
"Forrest Gump" is quite a magical movie. It has a charm I haven't experienced since "Back To The Future" (not surprisingly both films were directed by Robert Zemeckis). It's an enjoyable, and often touching story of a slow man who somehow experiences...

Pros: touching, sweet, funny, Cons: It's SAD, damnit!
There is only one movie I would sit through over and over again, even with hemorrhoids, and that is FORREST GUMP. I know every line, every gesture. Creepy, I admit it. I'm just a glutton for movies that reek of The Power of Love and The Length of...

Pros: A great history lesson seen through the eyes of a man Cons: somewhat unbelieveable story
The movie Forest Gump is an interesting and accurate overview of American history. This movie is basically the recent history of our country seen through the eyes of one young man. His life is greatly influenced by American events and problems. It shows...

Pros: Good heart-warming movie Cons: A bit long
It's nice to sit back, relax and watch and touching movie such as Forrest Gump. No major action star or special effect(except for the transformation of one actor playing a Vietnam Vet.), Huge audio sounds as if you were watching a rock video. Forrest...

Pros: not bad... Cons: see it
With Forrest Gump, the fable of the dimwitted but goodhearted Alabaman who was, in his own words, a "football star, war hero, national celebrity, and shrimp-boat captain," director Robert Zemeckis takes his work to a new level of maturity. His...
