Product Description

Tom Hanks gives an astonishing performance as Forrest in this acclaimed film from director Robert Zemeckis that rocketed to box-office history and touched the hearts of filmgoers like no other movie. Through three turbulent decades, Forrest rides a tide of events that whisks him from physical disability to football stardom, from Vietnam hero to shrimp tycoon, from White House honors to the arms of his one true love. Forrest is the embodiment of an era, an innocent at large in an America that is losing its innocence. His heart knows what his limited IQ cannot. His moral compass never wavers. His triumphs become an inspiration to us all. "Forrest Gump." It's the story of a lifetime.

5.0 out of 5 stars My #3 Favorite Movie, February 13, 2009
By Ghost "Still Learning" (Northern California) - See all my reviews
Definetely one of my top three movies. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind, that what most people got out of it was an archetype that they could forever make fun of, but for me this isn't the case. You've never had a friend like this, actually I think most people go their whole lives without ever really having a friend at all. Forrest Gump is a true friend. I've been blessed enough in my life to know someone like this. People surely think that he's some dimwit worth nothing more than making fun of, but I've read something like 100 books on spirituality/religion/psychology/philosophy, and I can think of no other "archetype" that fits the mold of nirvana or real enlightenment than Forrest. If it were "in" to be as humble as him this sick world would instantly be healed and have zero problems, but instead he is forever mocked and crucified. Anyways, a classic film and my third favorite of alltime. 7 stars out of 5.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ping Pong Champ, December 4, 2008
A Kid's Review
This movie, about a man who 'talks kinda funny', is weird yet completely awesome. While carrying the audience through various events of late 20th century American history, the movie's main theme says that being smart is less important than love, honor, bravery, kindness, honesty and perseverance.

Bought as a gift. Received in good shape. Shipping was a little slow but, it was worth the wait.
