One Sentence Plot Summary: The unlikely adventures of a simple minded, but extraordinary man.
Starring: Tom Hanks, Robin Wright Penn, Gary Sinise, Mykelti Williamson, Sally Field, Haley Joel Osment, Siobhan Fallon
Best of: A quirky and extremely unique story. Hilarious when it needs to be, heartbreaking when it wants to be. I can't imagine it would be nearly what it is without Hanks. Forrest's run across America is one of my favorite cinematic representations of grief.
Worst of: I never really liked Jenny...is it just me?
Notable: A lot of snooty reviewers list this among the most over-rated films ever. But that's cause they are snooty and reviewers.
Also nominated: The Shawshank Redemption (an even better film) and Pulp Fiction (which actually is one of the most over-rated films ever).
