Among my favorite movies of all time!! - Forrest Gump Reviews

Tom Hanks must be among the greatest actors alive right now (matched only by Robin Williams). With two-Academy Awards for best-actor, he should've got a third for this wonderful masterpiece. As a mentally-slow man growing up in the 50's, becoming the fastest football player for ASU, meeting the president Kennedy, going off to Vietnam and meeting Lt. Dan Taylor (Gary Sinise who won Best Supporting Actor), becoming ping-pong champion, becoming a shrimp boat captain and CEO of Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., jogging around the nation for over 2 years, and settling down with his sweetheart Jenny whom dies of an uknown disease and being a father of a son, Forrest Gump tells the story of his life through his eyes over the decades and ending how it began, with him sitting on a park bench in Savanna. This movie definently deserves Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Director. BUY THIS ON DVD IMMEDIATLY!! You will be glad you did! Life is a box of chocolates.
