Forrest Gump: Now you wouldn't believe me if I told you, but I could run like the wind blows. From that day on, if I was ever going somewhere, I was running!
A lake deep in the country with lot of plants. A bunch of animals like birds, butterflies, a beaver, lizard, horse, ducks, horse well just have a look yourself. Great music of Forrest Gump. Matching Wallpaper available. Enjoy DF Source: Ezthemes Size: (3422)
Since I began reviewing films, no film has left me as stumped as FORREST GUMP. While I was watching, I was carried away, delighted by an original and stunningly executed experience. But almost as soon as the closing credits started to roll, I began to feel that something just wasn't working. FORREST GUMP is, by turns, hilarious, overly precious, touching and disturbingly simplistic. So the question becomes, which FORREST GUMP do I review: the in-the-theater experience, or the in-the-car experience? The undeniably entertaining crowd-pleaser or the pre-digested primer in pop philosophy? Naturally, I found my answer somewhere in the middle.
