Forrest Gump became an instant hit at the box office when first released in 1994, and going on to win countless awards. It's about a young boy called Forrest Gump, who has a slight learning problem compared to other kids. This film takes you on a journey through the life of this remarkable person, from his youth wheen he was taunted by other for being stupid and wearing leg braces. To this, Forrest breaks free from this disability and joins the local american football team, becoming their star runner.
Forrest then goes on to fight in Vietnam and become a hero, then meeting the president of the United States and showing him the war-wound on his arse! Throughtout all the stages of his life, his life-long friend Jenny is always with him... but, much to his distress, only in his heart. It's amazing how incredibly smart and genuine Forrest Gump is, despite his "difficulties"... his heart knows what his limited IQ cannot.
There are a lot of tear-jerking moments in this film, there is also a lot of comedy, action, commendable acting and moments that will literally inspire you. This is one of the best films I'v ever seen, I strongly recommend you watch it so you can share in the experience too. As the incredibly true tag-line goes, "The world will never be the same, once you've seen it through the eyes of Forrest Gump."
