The GOAT There are many great movies but to me, if I had to pick the all time best movie, it would be very difficult not to say Forrest Gump. It's basically a flawless movie between the screenplay, acting, mix of drama and comedy, and is the role Tom Hanks was born to play. It's hard to believe that John Travolta was who the producers originally wanted but he had chosen Pulp Fiction. I'm pretty sure that worked out for everyone because Travolta was perfect for Vega as well.
What's great about this movie is its a feel good story of a man who wasn't born with the best abilities but went on to live a remarkable life. It's an example of the old adage "It's not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog."
When people say that Citizen Cain is the best movie of all time, it's an absolute slap in the face to movies like Forrest Gump. If you haven't seen the movie then that should be the next thing you do.
