Stupid is as stupid does, says Forrest Gump (played by Tom Hanks in an Oscar-winning performance) as he discusses his relative level of intelligence with a stranger while waiting for a bus. Despite his sub-normal IQ, Gump leads a truly charmed life, with a ringside seat for many of the most memorable events of the second half of the 20th century. Entirely without trying, Forrest teaches Elvis Presley to dance, becomes a football star, meets John F. Kennedy, serves with honor in Vietnam, meets Lyndon Johnson, speaks at an anti-war rally at the Washington Monument, hangs out with the Yippies, defeats the Chinese national team in table tennis, meets Richard Nixon, discovers the break-in at the Watergate, opens a profitable shrimping business, becomes an original investor in Apple Computers, and decides to run back and forth across the country for several years. Meanwhile, as the remarkable parade of his life goes by, Forrest never forgets Jenny (Robin Wright Penn), the girl he loved as a boy, who makes her own journey through the turbulence of the 1960s and 1970s that is far more troubled than the path Forrest happens upon. Featured alongside Tom Hanks are Sally Field as Forrest's mother; Gary Sinise as his commanding officer in Vietnam; Mykelti Williamson as his ill-fated Army buddy who is familiar with every recipe that involves shrimp; and the special effects artists whose digital magic place Forrest amidst a remarkable array of historical events and people.

I have this film on my tablet and also have 2 copies on dvd, just in case I lose one! All joking aside though, this is one of the greatest pieces of cinema ever and if you are hesitating on whether it is worth watching then trust me: it is priceless. Not many movies can make you laugh out loud, then cry in the space of a minute but this does it effortlessly. The Oscars are seen to many now as awards for movies that aren't entertaining but are 'arty' and to some level I have to agree, but Tom Hanks shows just why he is so respected in easily his best ever part. Effortless excellence!!!

This is simply amazing good move. Unreal actors in it. One of my first Tom Hanks angry Gary Sinise films to watch. Can't wait for 20th anniversary screening in cinema.

Brilliant movie. You never know where the story plot would take you next. It's very touching, sad at times and definitely heartbreaking at the end. There's however moment of warmth too. All time classic
