[Film] Top 3 Tom Hanks Films

[Solid at the back]

1. Road to Perdition
2. Catch me if you can
3. Green Mile

Top two on that list are hugely underrated films. They are just excellent.

I too enjoy Catch Me but felt it was a little too Leo-y to go down as a top Hanks film.

Green Mile
Cast Away
Saving Private Ryan

But, really, I struggle to think of a film he's in that I don't like.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

There is too many to choose from but
Green mile, Saving Private Ryan, Forrest Gump, Saving Mr Banks....plus about 30 others

Impossible to pick three, the man is an all time great. But here was my gut reaction. Have seen all three numerous times and EVERY single time it is a pleasure. But I'd gladly watch Forest Gump over and over again as well. Just chose not to as it is a little bit sad for me. But fantastic nonetheless. I'm a major fan.

Saving Mr Banks
Saving Private Ryan
Apollo 13

Just re-reading through this thread and there are so many others aren't there. Fabulous in the Da Vinci Code. Fabulous in all of the Toy Story stuff, oh my. I love that man.

Possibly only Robin Williams comes close for me.

True, Leo is the main star in that Movie but I love the role that Hanks plays too

Blimey @Gabbafella we are poles apart. I felt the same way about Eastwood and his films. Hanks winds me up in a Pardew stylee.

I like Eastwood both as an actor as a director, Richard Jewell, Sully, The Mule, Gran Turino, American Sniper, Space Cowboys, Million Dollar Baby, all cracking films that he's either starred in or directed/produced.

How do you feel about Sully? Directed by Eastwood but Starring Hanks.

Geena Davis was seriously hot when she was younger.

 

[Pevenseagull]

As evidenced by the range of comments there are loads of contenders.

I'm going with Splash because it's got Daryl Hannah's arse in it.

 

[Braggfan]

I keep trying to pick three, and as i read down someone mentions another one which is amazing. He's made a hell of a lot of fantastic films.

 

[Braggfan]

Looking at the list of films he's made, he made Philadelphia, Forest Gump and Apollo 13 consecutively. That's hard to beat for best 3 films somebody has made in a row.

Anyone seen his new film (A Man called Otto)?

I read the book - (A Man called Ove) which was very enjoyable.
