The greatest film of all time

Rating: 10/10 (12 September 1998)

You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll just have a darn good time. Tom Hanks gives the performance of his career, one year after his other brilliant performance in Jonathan Demme's masterpiece Philadelphia. The supporting cast is flawless, and the soundtrack would have to be right up there with the Star Wars soundtrack as the best ever, including my personal favourite Creedence Clearwater Revival. Anyone who says this film only won Oscars because, like Rain Man it was about an idiot, has no idea what they are talking about. Citizen Kane may be the greatest film of all time on a technical level, and I do love it, but is it as magical as this film?I think not.
