Extremely overrated

Rating: 4/10 (8 March 2019)

While iconic and inspirational (in a way), Forrest Gump is still an absurd cheese fest with a silly performance from Hanks (he sounds like a redneck Bert from Mary Poppins) and not a whole lot of likable characters. The movie is ridiculous and also tries to embrace autism while simultaneously making fun of it. The biggest highlight of this film is its visual effects.
