Words cannot express how much I hate this film. It literally insults its audience. "Hey, America- you don't know what the 50's- 80's was really about in America - so, We're going to explain it to you the only way you might understand- through the eyes of a moron." Roth and Zemeckis can blow it out their backsides, for this condescending drivel.
I think you guys are missing the whole point of the film.Ha, ha!
I'm in utter agreement @C.C. 95 !
I absolutely loathe this film!
I think the way it reduces something serious like the Vietnam War to a bit of a lark the most insulting!
I think you guys are missing the whole point of the film.
Of course the Vietnam war wasn't a lark. But we see the whole movie through the eyes of a simple man. It was how he perceived events around him. Although he was highly intelligent in his own way, his views on life were simplified. He didn't see fear when he was running through the jungle carrying his brothers in arms. He just had goals, and carried them out as best he could.
That, coupled with a satirical look at life in the U.S. during his life..........
At the end of the day it's really just a popcorn movie. And a very entertaining one at that. It's not a historically correct biopic.
I'm a little bit confused as I'm still a bit of a novice using this site for exclusives. Will there be a GB for this or do we have to purchase through the website links? Also, will we see all the different versions well in advance of needing to decide which one to commit to (assuming there will be group buys)? I love this film and I've only seen the exclusives offered where the slip is a box of chocolates. I just can't bring myself to buy something I dislike that much, so I'm really hoping one of the options here will be better. Thanks for any help.
stupid is as stupid does...I appreciate your opinion @BluSteel2012 and I know the film has a lot of fans, but for me it is a film that celebrates stupidity
HDzeta's FG is one of the most premium steelbook edition everThis and a bunch of other WEA releases have been put on the back burner by FA, it seems
It's a shame because I didn't much like HDzeta's Forrest Gump but really wanted to see how this one turned out
What the point if hdzeta and Blufans already have a premium editionI guess we're never gonna see this?
You could say that about any movie!!What the point if hdzeta and Blufans already have a premium edition
You could say that about any movie!!
Its nice to have the option.
But if you must know, HD Zetas has Chinese text on the spine (big no no for me) and Blufans is pretty rubbish (and overpriced at that especially on the secondary market now)
