Review of Forrest Gump (1994) by Ethan T — 07 Sep 2014

I remember talking to a bloke once, and I asked what he thought was the greatest film of all time. He said Forrest Gump was by far his favourite film. I'd never really thought about it before but it an absolute classic.

I'm not saying it's the greatest film of all time but it is well up there. It's got everything you need in a film comedy, drama, romance, action and tragedy. There's not many films that can say they feature all of those. Tom Hanks is brilliant as always and there's a great supporting cast. I love the way they managed to edit Forrest into history like meeting various presidents meeting John Lennon ect.
