A Rebel Born

A tempting topic that proposes to cover a notorious individual and a brutal portion of history. But at the first moment of dialogue the bubble of potential is brutally burst by a sequence of dreadfully wooden acting. You'd think that perhaps this is an attempt to ironically introduce Forrest's origin backstory as a sort of ridiculous made up fable. But this drivel is not in fact a clever device but the pinnacle of the directors ambition for the rest of the film! It's as if the actors are blind reading the script on a first take. The other discomfort is that it appears to be shot at a 30fps more common of TV format instead of the more romantic and usual 24/25fps used for film. Just watch it to learn how not to make a film. Believe me when I warn that it doesn't improve from the first minute in.

Going through garbage to find receipt to try and get my money back,

That's really all you need to know about the historical accuracy. Worst thing I have ever seen.

This is the worst film I have seen. I don't know where to start. Everyone and everything were awful. Was this meant to be a comedy? I really don't quite know.

This is just about the worst movie, I have ever seen. No acting at all, the caracters just say their lines. An advice: Don't watch this movie, unless you can do it at no cost.
