Wilson was Snubbed

Rating: 9/10 (27 February 2020)

In a career full of defining performances, I think THIS is truly Hanks career-defining performance. It capture everything that is magnificent about him: effortless likability, pure commitment, humor, ethos, pathos. After Back to the Future, this is Zemeckis's most immensely satisfying picture; even its worst moments (recounting past by fireplace) are filled with undeniable humanity. SIDE NOTE: The chemistry between Hanks and Hunt is so perfect, I wish we could get a true-blue rom-com starring them.
