The Experience

Rating: 10/10 (19 March 2015)

No matter how many times I watch this movie, it still manages to move me and take me on an adventure. I find myself always getting lost in Tom Hanks acting, it's not Tom, it's Forrest, which is something I find difficult to see when watching other actors. As a viewer you feel as if you're one of the people sitting with Forrest at the bus stop, listening to his compelling story. As the viewer, as you go on this journey with Forrest you're on a roller coaster of emotions, from happiness, sadness, anger, frustration, if a movie can make you feel all these different things, that's what I see as a successful movie, a film is supposed to connect with it's audience on an emotional level, and this movie does that on a number of levels.
I'd recommend this as a must watch movie to anyone.
