I don't buy it for a minute
I was about to begin this review with the statement that I don't understand why this film inspires such intense adulation - but unfortunately, I understand all too well. Mediocrity and cheap sentimentality has always sold well in America; a "feel-good" movie wins the audience every time.

But what are you "feeling good" ABOUT...?

This movie sells the premise, "It's DESIRABLE to be mentally deficient."

There is NOTHING desirable about being mentally challenged.

I think this film could be called subversive, perhaps even dangerous, in its glorification of simple-minded "innocence" over rational, thoughtful consideration of what's going on in the society around you. This film makes light of many serious events in America's history for the sake of some "gee-whiz" special effects.

Come to think of it, it's probably the PERFECT movie for the G. W. Bush era.

Definitely NOT entertainment for any thinking, rational person.

Run Forrest Run

I know Pulp Fiction is brilliant, but Forrest Gump deserve the oscar.I can watch this movie everyday, anyday.
