Through the Eyes of Forrest Gump Review



This is a good documentary about the excellent film "Forrest Gump". Even though it was good, it could have been improved. I feel as if they left out so many questions I wanted to ask about the film and answered so little. However, the few questions they did answer, they answered very well, with footage of the people actually showing how they did a good special effect or thought of certain plot points. One thing this documentary did great is have most of the cast answer questions and talk about the movie, even though I got tired of people saying "Forrest Gump is a great movie". I actually think every person in the documentary said the movie was great at least twice, and, after a while, it got old. In the documentary, they discussed what they did in the movie, and they answered several questions, but I think they mostly discussed special effects, which was pretty interesting, but once again, after a while, it got old. Luckily, by the time you start to get bored, they move on.... right to the credits..... GAHHH!!!! Couldn't they make the documentary longer so they could discuss more? I have to admit though, even though I complained a lot, it isn't a half bad documentary. It answers some good questions, has a lot of the cast in it, and it keeps you interested for most of it. Long story short, it's an interesting documentary for you Forrest Gump fans, but it doesn't feel finished, like they were planning to make it longer but just decided not to. It's good, but it should have discussed more topics.


3/5
