A story that has become a classic An amazing story, deep meaning, great acting, catch phrases, warm memories of the film — all this is "Forrest Gump". Full of events and drama, the film has collected an excellent collection of various awards: Oscars, Golden Globes and the British Academy Award for Best Visual Effects. The film looks easy, but at the same time makes you plunge into history. The hero of Tom Hanks is interesting and extraordinary, he is kind and naive. This is what captivates the viewer. He wants to help or even prompt, but as you can see, he copes very well himself. I liked the visual solutions. The creators of special effects masterfully inscribed Forrest in historical moments, "introduced" influential people. I remember when I first watched it as a child, I was very surprised that some historical figures were being filmed in the film. It's only later that you realize that it's all a matter of masters of effects. Forrest Gump, despite his problems with development, is very purposeful, diligent. He is a strong-willed person. Despite the fact that it was always hard for him — he was bullied in childhood and in adulthood, the young man did not give up, but showed himself to be the true creator of his destiny. Let him be incredibly lucky in many places, but Gump teaches us all to be strong and go to our goal, do good and love people. In our life, it's not easy to follow this. Actor Gary Sinise showed himself well. A little cheeky, loving to tell the whole truth, he is a great friend to the main character, becomes a victim of war, but does not lose faith in life, although he often swears at her. I like the love line in the movie. Forrest falls endlessly in love, has been helping his chosen one for many years, but she constantly leaves him. Gump, on the other hand, believes in the best, does not demand anything in return from her. He is sincere, kind and honest. Forrest shows the viewer the basics of the basics — treat people the way you want them to treat you. And this works quite well in his particular case. He finds real friends, adherents and even admirers. It's not for nothing that the people of America start running back and forth across the country after him. And he seems to find in this a solution to live on. "Run, Forrest, run!" These words have sunk into his soul, and into our memory for many decades. The duration of the film is high, but it does not spoil the impression in any way, because the story is interesting to watch, to empathize with the hero. The film is beautiful, kind and sensual. After watching the view of the world changes, you feel some kind of warmth that this hero gave you. Even if you understand that this is still a film with a lot of fantastic things in it, but its main message has been heard. 9 out of 10
