Plot: Stupid is as stupid does, says Forrest Gump (played by Tom Hanks in an Oscar-winning performance) as he discusses his relative level of intelligence with a stranger while waiting for a bus. Despite his sub-normal IQ, Gump leads a truly charmed life, with a ringside seat for many of the most memorable events of the second half of the 20th century. Entirely without trying, Forrest teaches Elvis Presley to dance, becomes a football star, meets John F. Kennedy, serves with honor in Vietnam, meets Lyndon Johnson, speaks at an anti-war rally at the Washington Monument, hangs out with the Yippies, defeats the Chinese national team in table tennis, meets Richard Nixon, discovers the break-in at the Watergate, opens a profitable shrimping business, becomes an original investor in Apple Computers, and decides to run back and forth across the country for several years. Meanwhile, as the remarkable parade of his life goes by, Forrest never forgets Jenny (Robin Wright Penn), the girl he loved as a boy, who makes her own journey through the turbulence of the 1960s and 1970s that is far more troubled than the path Forrest happens upon. Featured alongside Tom Hanks are Sally Field as Forrest's mother; Gary Sinise as his commanding officer in Vietnam; Mykelti Williamson as his ill-fated Army buddy who is familiar with every recipe that involves shrimp; and the special effects artists whose digital magic place Forrest amidst a remarkable array of historical events and people. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

GREAT COLLECTOR'S ITEM
Added 1/31/2010

Forrest Gump is probably one of my many favorite all time movies. It looks phenomenal in HD and probably one of the best conversion to blu-ray movie i've seen in a while. If the other Sapphire series look this great, i'll definitely pick up Braveheart and Gladiator.

You will not be disappointed with the quality of the movie at all. I have this on VHS, DVD collector's edition, and now Blu-Ray, and i'm very happy about my purchase. A must have for any avid movie collector and just anyone who enjoys watching cinema.

Great movie, terrible gift set

For those of you who are wondering whether to get the regular blu ray or the chocolate box set, got with the regular. The chocolate box set offers nothing, its cluttered, and has no chocolates! The blu ray from what i understand is also an outdated version so I was disappointed with this version of the product. Get this movie but stay away from the chocolate box set, totally lame and useless.

Great experience
Added 1/20/2010

Like most folks here, we love this movie. We've watched it several times on TV, but getting our blu-ray player inspired us to buy a copy. Gee! We had forgotten the scenes snipped out of the TV showings. They were great fun to see again. And like many people who find the sound track a walk down memory lane, hearing it through our Klipsch 5.1 system and seeing it in blu-ray HD was a blast.

Forrest is like a box of chocolate's

Will go down as old classic, with time. The story is special but sound track is what makes the movie. Seeing it and hearing it in Blue Ray makes it worth while, that is making the purchase.
