Why I believe it's an amazing, must-see movie!!

Rating: 9/10 (22 October 2015)

I believe the cast; as a whole, were amazing...but this movie is the whole reason I absolutely love Tom Hanks! His performance was outstanding to me! This movie has such a heartfelt message, you can't help but fall in love with it (unless you're a heartless piece of trash that is). Following Forest's life story captivates you from the beginning as you learn all the hardships he had to overcome starting from a very young age and ending with the present in the movie (after he finishes telling his story and you follow him in the present). It's just hands down an amazing movie that made me cry and smile, laugh and yell in anger, and helped me realize judgment is the worst crime anyone can commit!!
