I watched Forrest Gump again this weekend. It is such a really great movie. I watched it with some people who had not seen it before and they were amazed at the story. It was well written (adapted precisely from the book), some of the production techniques were really neat for the time, and Hanks acting is tremendous. How many times have you watched it? If you haven't viewed it lately, I'd recommend you do so soon. I bet you'll be even more impressed watching it now than when you first did. (and if you haven't watched it, please go out and do it asap).

That is one of my favorite movies of all time. I enjoy it tremendously. I have it on VHS and still need to get it on DVD. The only part that I don't care much for is the war scene, it is too much for me.

I watched this movie several times in the past. At the beginning I didn't understand it and I just thought it was a so so movie. Later when I watched it more times. It seems that I can understand it. I think this movie tells people to keep on their faith. Then you will be successful at last.

I love that movie, it is seriously one of the best movies ever and I watch it every time it comes on tv, I don't care how many times I've seen it, I'll watch it again and again. I've even gotten my boyfriend to love it.

i've watched this only twice. the first time was it was used as the material in our film showing back in high school and the last was just early this year when it was shown in a local channel. i loved the film the first time i saw it so i didnt make a mistake to just let it pass when it was shown in a local tv channel. ^__^
tom hanks is really great dramatic actor and he just really made me cry as forest gump. and for sure it gave hope to a lot of disabled people like forest.
i didnt know it was based on a book though. ^__^;;

I've seen it several times. We have the DVD. I thought it was very well produced,directed and acted. Of course Tom Hanks seems to do everything well.

Hi bgerig! I did watched Forrest gump for at least three or four times already. I completely agree with you that it is a very amazing story and a beautiful one indeed. It is very inspiring. My favorite line is "Life is like a box of chocolates.." Take care and have a nice day.

Yes, i watched forrest gump many a times too. it is seriously a wonderful movie. Tom Hanks' performance in the movie was astonishing. He even won oscar for the best actor in the leading role for that movie.
it is very difficult to play a role like that, a good man, an innocent man, etc.
I have watched that movie about 4-5 times now and i would watch it many number of times in the future.

I have seen Forrest Gump probably about 3 or 4 times, but it has been about 2 years since the last time. It is without a doubt one of the best ever. UIt has all the characteristics a good movie should have: action, humor, love, sadness, happiness, and a great ending.

I haven't seen this movie yet. But I heard rumors that this movie is quite great.
