A deep message

Rating: 10/10 (9 May 2020)

I understand what is the reason for considered Forrest Gump the best movie of his time when it was released in 1994, directed by Robert Zemeckis and written by Erick Roth, although the movie was inspired in a novel with the same name, both are different but the movie continue being interesting
The movie plot is about Forrest´s life who is a simple person with some problems because he was considered mad but, despite that, he could do more things about his life than the expected. Forrest is performed by Tom Hanks who developed the personality of a man with low intellect reflected in his accent and gestures, these qualities do the movie more engrossing and witty due this character is involved in different adventures also we could think that only people who have some kind of special resource or intelligence have the capacities of getting achievements but Forrest can do us to think we can be part of some like that whether voluntarily or involuntarily.
Another characteristic of Forrest is he did not think much before to act, so in the movie, as a consequent of his actions, he is part of some historical events including he had been face to face with important historical characters and greet them, in those scenes, there are visual effects which allowed to Tom Hacks be in those moments and alter the speeches of those characters according to the situation, and other special effects in the movie for generated different atmospheres or setting like war moments or events with a lot of people were innovative to film technologies in that times.
Sync up Forrest´s life with historical moments allow us to imagine some characteristics of that age and understand some consequence in the plot, also some characters like Jenny performed by Hanna R, Hall, and the captain Dan performed by Gary Sinise, who appear in different moments of the movie and every time with changes physically or in their way of mind due to his age or relationships with another people, causes a notion of time and the thinking that the people change.
This movie is accompanied by whit classic music compounded by Alan Silvestri which generates different feelings about you are watching at that moment, doing more emotive the scenes.
The end was lightweight, in comparison with the rest of the plot but this is thought-provoking due you could think or have different feelings about the movie after watching it, although in the majority is amusing.
In my opinion, it is one of the best movies that I have watched, also I recommend it for people who want something classic and comical with different messages about life.
