The Review for this movie is long overdue, that has me write after 10 watchings. Fine, the first plus-point is that the soul remains untanned even after screening No.10. Let me not elaborate on the positives because it might necessitate a thesis. But still ‘Forrest Gump’ drives me to do nothing but applaud.

The first movie that made a strong impression in my love for cinema. Robert Zemeckis is a director to watch. After his ‘Back to the Future’ trilogy his enchanting U-Turn towards Forrest Gump is nothing short of a genius. Tom Hanks provides the life and breath to the character of the protagonist.

The characters revolving around Forrest, their philosophies of life are terms to cherish. The feather wafting through the air provides chills to the mood of the film. The crisp and cynical visuals provide to be Emotional and Heart-Warming. Goose-Bumps are available in plenty if you’re interested in watching ‘Forrest Gump’.

In short, it’s a classic. A MUST WATCH.
