Pure cinematic Quality on all counts from the page to the screen

Rating: 10/10 (23 January 2004)

How the hell Forest "Dam" Gump won best picture over this Gem of a movie, is totaly beyond me. It just shows how the critics and hollywood itself can get it sooo wrong sometimes. Thankfully like all great movies that often sleep at the box office.. true quality shines through, and its great to see that the public recognise and all round great movie, regardless of what some overpayed over inteligent critic would have them believe. For me it's the kind of film you just don't want to end.. it's 2 and half hour long but it never drags, and when it ends, you know you've seen "A GREAT MOVIE" and you feel full like you've just dined at the Ritz
