I can't stress this enough: you must see this movie once in your life. The acting from Tom Hanks is unsurpassed, the storyline captivates you for hours without any pause, and the ending will bring a tear every time. Movies at IMDB tend to slowly lose rating points after they are released, and that is the only reason I can see for this movie being rated as low as it is. This movie is so good that the first time I saw it, I watched it over again as soon as it ended--the only time I have ever done that for a movie.
You can have your Gone With the Winds and your Citizen Kanes. The greatest movie of all time is Forrest Gump.
