culture shock falters

Rating: 1/10 (13 February 2005)

frankly speaking, given that an average Asian people person entrenched with conservative and Confucian ideology in comparison with Westerners in particular, i really sense somewhat awkward for not appreciating this movie way thoroughly although i truly consider it should be a glorious showdown of self-righteous high social status dudes versus underdogs advocated and mocked by fates or certain "papacy" when destiny displays a hideous face.as far as i am weightlessly concerned,tom hanks delivers an incredible portrayal of a veteran who unfortunately is a imbecile,meanwhile his slightly overbearing mother somehow manages to be impeccable and pushy despite the fact that her son happens to be physically and psychologically handicapped. all the tragical climax culminates when gump's little son was born and his overdosed wife passed away. you can clearly see the shock of middle-class populace wrestles with life and struggles to keep track with others pace,,however,i remain sort of suspicious why the general tempo and rhyme of the movie goes so smoothly and peacefully, i am also not able to totally understand the humor permeating throughout the whole movie,the genre of which to my knowledge belongs to unique Americanism.by no means to be offensive but it is destitute of emotive burst and spicy aggression which is vital to vivify the whole movie.
