The best film that I have ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (3 May 2014)

In my opinion Forrest Gump is the best film I have ever seen. It is incredible how they have managed to fit a man's whole life into one film, that lasts just under two and a half hours, and not compromise on quality. They spend just enough time on every point in the film, so that you get enough detail but still don't get bored.
The character may not be considered clever but he still manages a lot in his life. The film sees him achieve a lot from going to war in Vietnam, to being a professional Ping-Pong player. However, The main aspect that keeps popping up in every section is how great he is at running.
Tom Hanks portrays the Forrest brilliantly and makes him a unique character unlike any other. The fact that he does not understand the world around him makes the film only funnier, especially in his narrated parts."They said it was a million dollar wound, but the army must keep that money cause i still ain't seen a nickel of that million Dollars."
Another clever thing about the film is that Forrest always seems to be there when famous events happen, and you see them from his perspective (normally him not understanding what's going on.
This film is great spanning across many different genres including romance, drama, action and always comedy.
