Our take

Robert Zemeckis's career-best — a baby-boomer history-of-America told through the eyes of a man too uncomplicated to be cynical about it. Sentimental on purpose, ruthlessly well-crafted, and worth the rewatches it gets.

Good for: Anyone who enjoys big, accessible, era-spanning storytelling.

Overview

A man with a low IQ has accomplished great things in his life and been present during significant historic events—in each case, far exceeding what anyone imagined he could do. But despite all he has achieved, his one true love eludes him.
