Wiki
Forrest Gump is a 1994 American comedy-drama film directed
by Robert Zemeckis and written by Eric Roth. It is based on the 1986
novel of the same name by Winston Groom and stars Tom Hanks, Robin
Wright, Gary Sinise, Mykelti Williamson and Sally Field. The story
depicts several decades in the life of Forrest Gump (Hanks), a
slow-witted but kind-hearted man from Alabama who witnesses and
unwittingly influences several defining historical events in the 20th
century United States. The film differs substantially from the novel.
Principal photography took place in late 1993, mainly in Georgia, North
Carolina and South Carolina. Extensive visual effects were used to
incorporate Hanks into archived footage and to develop other scenes. The
soundtrack features songs reflecting the different periods seen in the
film.
Forrest Gump was released in the United States on July 6, 1994 and
received favorable reviews for Zemeckis' directing, Sinise and Hanks'
performances, the visual effects, the music and the screenplay. The film
was an enormous success at the box office; it became the top-grossing
film in America released that year and earned over US$677 million
worldwide during its theatrical run, making it the second
highest-grossing film of 1994, behind The Lion King. The soundtrack sold
over 12 million copies. Forrest Gump won the Academy Awards for Best
Picture, Best Director, Best Actor for Hanks, Best Adapted Screenplay,
Best Visual Effects, and Best Film Editing. It received many award
nominations, including Golden Globes, British Academy Film Awards and
Screen Actors Guild Awards.
Varying interpretations have been made of the protagonist and the film's
political symbolism. In 2011, the Library of Congress selected the film
for preservation in the United States National Film Registry as being
"culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

Reviews
The meaning of the movie to me is that
everyone needs to have a better outlook on life. That we all need to
hold true to our values and not sink into a place that feels like
there's no hope. It truly is amazing. This film is a great modern fable,
a fable in the dictionary is defined as a brief fictitious story that
teaches a moral.
The film is wonderfully directed by Robert Zemeckis, the film is his
opus and is acted by a great cast on all levels.
The movie has it all too,drama,comedy and it challenges societal norms
as well. If you did not like it, give it a try again and hopefully you
will see it for the great story it is!. Jimmy Stewart in, "Oh, what a
wonderful life," - yeah right! The Lion King, when Mufasa bites the big
one - on the verge. Every bit as worthy for the Oscar as Rooney was to
win the Premiership in 2007. Watch it, and you'll see.
Forrest and Jenny together walk every day from school and when these
kids start throwing rocks at Forrest calling him stupid, Jenny just
tells Forrest "Run, Forrest! Run!". I am not kidding, "Forrest Gump" is a
remarkable movie and inspires everyone. He miraculously breaks the
braces off his legs and run like the wind blows.I noticed that the
haters of this movie who make it have a lower rating than it actually
deserves mainly argue that it promotes the government's politics of
submission: the idea that "if you're an idiot but you do what you're
told then you will be rewarded, but, if you experience life then you're
going to die a miserable death. But his mama(Sally Field) believes that
her boy has the same opportunities as anyone else and lets Forrest know
that there's nothing that could hold him back. It is something to mull
over for a long time. Forrest meets many celebrities from his life that
just happened to be there: Elvis Presley visited his house before
hitting it big, President Kennedy honored him with a all American
football award, President Johnson who honored him with a medal of honor
for his actions in Vietnam, President Nixon(in which Forrest happens to
discover a problem in the Water Gate Hotel because some people seem to
be flashing lights around), and John Lennon through a talk show to talk
about his medal of honor." I'm not an American myself so i don't have
any intention to defend the government or anyone else, but I think that
the political events witnessed by the character in the movie make many
miss the whole substance of the film. One comment I've never heard is
that Forrest's simplicity is almost zen-like. The brilliant humour, the
hilarious yet touching acting, the special effects and the uplifting
message are totally rewarding. We love our cats and dogs for the same
simplicity and always being in the moment. He is just so wonderful and
charming and won't stop talking about shrimp. It's not just about
someone stupid who happens to be in great places and historic events
just because of being in the right place at the right time. This scene
is so heart breaking until you hear a little angel's voice "You can sit
here if you want". Robin Wright, what a beautiful and wonderful actress.
Like others, I've seen this movie more than once. As a boy he is put
into braces for his legs since he has a crooked back and really doesn't
have too many friends. Forrest just assumes that it's a father's love
since he doesn't have a dad that could show him that it's wrong. And yet
it was so perfectly understated that Forrest Gump's travels through
thirty five years of the stormiest and most meaningful years of American
history only became clearly defined for the viewer. Forrest meets many

My review
Forrest Gump is one of the best Romance movies of all time,
guaranteed. Now i understand that i made a great mistake by not
watching this Documentary movie this long. actually this movie is one of
my favorite Superhero movies. the story is amazing,
breathtaking. Most of people like Thriller Movie but it is a Thriller
Movie. Never wrote a review before but every time I watched Biography
movie Forrest Gump I got the urge to do it. I think this Forrest Gump is
a best Family Movie. The script is absolutely brilliant and well writen
for this kind of Action movie 100/100 for the director and
Animation movie story writing I seriously suggest seeing it or seeing it
again. It truly is amazing Horror movie. when i first see this Forrest
Gump then i thought it may be Drama Movie. Somebody says it is best
Western Movie. I will watch this Musical Movie again. The best Fantasy
movie I have ever seen. If you are looking for something meaningful
here's the Forrest Gump After watching this Film-Noir Movie my life
changed !. However we must agree that it has Adventure in this movie.
Quite simply, the greatest Sport film ever made. I have seen this
Forrest Gump movie easily a half a dozen times, and I find that the
beauty of the Music Movie. I feel that much of story appeal is
its downright Crime sense I've seen most of the top-voted 250 movies
here at IMDb, and Forrest Gump wins my vote for the single best War
movie ever made. I am sure I have absolutely nothing new to add but I
wanted to show and share my appreciation for this wonderful and
brilliant History movie.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful I will say to everybody
must buy this Comedy type Movie. After the Sci-Fi movie ended, I felt
like I had never seen anything like this before. My friend suggested me
to watch this Mystery Forrest Gump movie. Just recently I saw the Short
Film movie again.
