Who could possibly forget the movie Forrest Gump?! Forrest Gump is a very character driven movie. Throughout the movie Forrest is telling his life stories, even though he has a low IQ his life stories have made him one of the most inspiring men. When his mother leaves him at an early age he has to choose his destiny. Once Forrest leaves the army he and Bubba start running a shrimp co. He then inspires people to jog and becomes world’s best ping pong player. In all of his successes he is unable to find his childhood sweetheart Jenny. The end is left for you to find out… Tom Hanks staring as Forrest was a great actor chosen for this movie he was able to bring the character to life. Some traits that describe Forrest would be honesty, compassion, and love. He believes is it very bad to tell a lie, along with never giving up on what he believes in. He knows that he and Jenny are meant to be together he can’t let it go. But as for Jenny she is hopeless, she thinks that she needs to experience the most out of life and pays the price of her actions. A good theme would be live life and don’t give up. What people may get from this is that no matter how hard it gets or no matter where life takes you, you just have to keep moving forward. If something is meant to be it will come back to you. My personal overall opinion on this movie is fantastic! I love it, but if you’re a sensitive kind of person I’m warning you it’s a tear up kind of movie. If you don’t feel as if it’s still not worth the money to watch this movie I advise you to go eat at a Bubba Gump sometime in your life someone there might be able to persuade you differently to watch the movie!
