A resplendent spiritual journey.

Rating: 9/10 (13 June 2001)

Even slight flaws appear to loom larger when embodied in a near perfection. The few defects, however, do not mar the overall excellence of this fine production.	Here, we learn once more that our journey through life might not be what we expected and that it might hold challenges that will in the end make us stronger. The spiritual depth of this film is profound. At a more superficial level, it is an engrossing adventure, a story not just about love but how badly we humans need each other for our happiness.
Robert Zemeckis, by this creation, seems to have blossomed from an imaginative filmmaker to one of penetrating depth. Like Frank Capra before him, Zemeckis draws upon the subtle whispers of the spiritual realm beyond and in so doing, has delivered to us a timeless movie.
