given my perpetual sarcasm and negativity, you'd be surprised to hear that from me...but this film gets better with age. tom hanks shows a versatility and flair for this role that he has yet to match elsewhere in his career, and the simple and yet heart-tugging story of a simple man with simple desires somehow resonates at the deepest places within me. i know it's a Hollywood film, and i know many folks will shun it for it's high budget and elaborate sets, but underneath the flash exists a truly original movie that is both grand and humble at the same time. |
