The best darn picture ever made

Rating: 10/10 (20 April 1999)

This truly has to be the greatest film ever made. This film has you hooked from beginning to end and never loses its edge. And to think that it came from "Stephen King" although this is not the first time King has given us such a great flick ("Stand By Me", "Misery", "The Shining"). Whats more unbelievable is that it was snubbed of the Best Picture for both the Oscars and Golden Globe. Sure "Forrest Gump" was a great film but it's not often that you find a movie so captivating and can have such a beautiful, edgy and realistic storyline. Even the AFI's "100 movies 100 years" didn't include this in their list. Both critics and audiences have had positive things to say about this movie. I think that if you haven't watched it yet, then you truly can't understand what true movie-making is all about.
