Rating: 10/10 (12 May 2013)

"Forrest Gump" is a classic masterpiece that showed the world the actor that Tom Hanks is, simply PERFECT in every detail. And the director Robert Zemeckis is fabulous. In technical aspects the film is very good, but the story is the one who shines.
Here we have the fabulous "fictional biography" of the unforgettable Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) a very smart autist. We follow his story since his adolescence to adulthood, having the chance to be part of various historical moments in American history, giving him the chance to meet Elvis, JFK, LBJ, Nixon, John Lennon. The movie always following closely the life of Forrest in a fantastic and inspiring way.
The visual direction of Zemeckis works perfectly in this film, from the first scene where we follow closely a feather afloat until the moment when Forrest meets JFK closely.
The writing of Eric Roth (screenplay) upon the story is superb, giving us truly emotional moments but also very funny moments. Leaving the movie extremely entertaining and exciting from the very beginning to the feather flying in the last scene.
The performances are fantastic. Tom Hanks, no comments, PERFECT in every detail with a performance so innocent and dear; Gary Sinise as Lieutenant Dan, the suffered and hilarious soldier with a superb performance since his first scene; Sally Field as Forrest's mother, despite not appearing much she has its many moments where her performance shines.
A film that is to be watched over and over again. With a heartwarming story, really well written, directed and performance. A story that will make you cry, laugh, have fun and involve lot about the life of this fantastic character. Run to watch now, RUN PEOPLE... RUN!!
