Summary: Laughable !!
Review: This is a truly a amazing movie.You'll howl with laughter when you understand all the jokes in this movie.It seems like the movie only lasts one hour instead of 2 hours.
"Forrest Gump" is about a man who is a bit mentally retarded.When he was on a bench with a few people,he tells them about his past.You might think that this movie is boring but you are wrong.When you get a bit further in this movie,you will be so engrossed that you will not hear anything around you except the sound of the movie.
This man who is telling his story to people is Forrest Gump.His mother and a girl,Jenny are the only people who treat him well.He had an I.Q of 75.When he was older,Forrest Gump joined the army force.He was the fastest to load a gun,fastest runner and many other things.His sergeant said that he had an I.Q of 160!! Think of that!
I wouldn't tell you the whole story.Watch this movie to find out.

Summary: One of the greatest movies I have ever seen
Review: If you want to feel that life is worth living altough you may not have everything on your side, you need to watch this movie.
A movie that is based on the heart of a man who is not very smart, but his lack of intelligence makes him a happy, giving, and honest man.
Outstanding perfomance by Tom Hanks, who has become one of the best actors on Hollywood and one of my favorites actors.
Anyway the whole cast was excellent. Actors such as Sally Field, Gary Sinise, ect are great as well as the movie director Robert Zemeckis.
Excellent movie. Five thumbs up altough i only have two

Summary: Good film, but Pulp Fiction was robbed at the Oscars.
Review: Europeans know how to appreciate good films way better than US industry, so it is no surprise that Pulp Fiction won at the Cannes Festival, and Forrest Gump won the Oscar. Don't get me wrong, Forrest is a good film, but Pulp Fiction is one of those films that mark a generation, but it was too "edgy" for the Academy.
Forrest Gump is not a great movie.

Summary: Excellent and moving film
Review: A triumph in film making and feel good story telling. Forrest over comes challenge after challenge and shows such grace to others it is hard not to completely love him. Hanks showed that he is one of the greatest actors ever to hit the screen in this movie by portraying Gump in such a way that the viewer loves him and knows him but never feels pity for him even though his circumstances may seem to warrant it.
Gump gives us a vision of true loyalty in friendship, he is patient, kind, doesn't hold grudges (doesn't keep accounting of wrongs suffered), he believes all things and hopes in all things. This movie is very enlightening and a true pleasure to watch. It is fun to watch, it is entertaining, it is a good family movie (older kids) and it is definitely a "thinking movie" and a challenge to how we all live. Very highly recommended.

Summary: Way to go GUMP on DVD
Review: This one DVD you must own. The movie itselfs says it all, Award winning movie on 1994 and nominated for sound, special effects, and other stuff. This DVD really gets you into the movie magic "through the eyes" of Forrest Gump. The special features keep your attention on how great technology can be mixed with decades of american history and celebrities both popular and political. This is a great movie with not just a sense of humour, it has what it takes to be considered as must have movie on DVD.

Summary: Gump...even better than before
Review: This DVD is great! I synched the video with the DVD (via PIP)...and the color is much better. You would be amazed by what you were missing out on with the VHS screenfit version! The behind the scenes cd is pretty neat too, most of the information is common sense, but the other info such as the mysterious deleted senses are really worth the purchase.

Summary: One of Tom Hanks Best!!
Review: This movie is one of the best. It really shows off Hanks' acting ability. The casting of Robin Wright as Jenny was also excellent. If you are looking for the perfect "feel good" movie this is the one!! To think that Forrest did all of those things is sometimes hard to imagine, but overall still an excellent watch.

Summary: A Special Edition DVD is like a box of chocolates....
Review: I've watched Forrest Gump for the first time since its initial theatrical release and was quickly reminded just how great a film it really is. The film itself has been critiqued many times, so I will instead concentrate on the DVD contents and presentation, as usual. Disc 1 contains the movie as well as two different running commentaries. The first commentary by director Robert Zemeckis, producer Steve Starkey and production designer Rick Carter is full of details and never lags, but I couldn't escape the feeling that I wish that they had answered a few more questions about specific scenes, etc. That's not to say that they didn't divulge interesting information about the making of the film, or that I didn't enjoy it, but I expected a bit more from a commentary by three people. The second commentary is by producer Wendy Finerman, and is fairly insightful. There are a few extended moments of dead air, but for the most part she offers information about characters, their development and the subtle visual and verbal cues used to convey that growth. She occasionally resorts to describing the action on the screen and stays away from the technical info of the first commentary, but provides a nice analysis of the film's emotional undercurrents. Disc 2 contains most of the good stuff about the production that was omitted from the commentaries, and as I felt with Zemeckis's Cast Away DVD collection, it was probably planned that way so as not to be redundant. The "documentary," Through the Eyes of Forrest Gump, is actually just a promotional fluff piece that was also included on the original laserdisc. There are a couple of screen tests which only underscore the acting abilities of Tom Hanks and Robin Wright, as well as some great breakdowns of makeup, sound and production design. An extended section on visual effects is the centerpiece of the second disc and includes some unfinished deleted scenes and disections that are very informative and entertaining. As Zemeckis says in his commentary, if you notice the effects, then he hasn't done his job, and as with Cast Away, you'll be surprised just how often visual effects were used besides in the obvious circumstances. All in all, this is a good, thorough DVD package. It's not quite as good as some (Fox's "Five Star Collection"), but better than most. And that's all I have to say about that.
