Forrest Gumpis famous worldwide. It is one of the best comedy dramas of all time. It has a great story, great characters and great acting. It is not a true story but it takes place in real events in America.

This movie has many famous sayings. The most famous one is“Life is like a box of chocolates.You never know what you are going to get.”It means that life is full of delightful surprises.Another famous saying is“Run,Forrest,run!”It is said in a scene when the main character is running away from bullies. For fun, people in America sometimes use these two sayings in conversation.

It is about a mentally disabled man’s life in America in 1960s and 1970s. He lives through many big events and eventually becomes famous for many things. It shows that people with disabilities can also lead fulfilling and extraordinary lives. But it is not a realistic movie. It is almost fantasy that the main character, Forrest Gump fights in the Vietnam War, plays table tennis in China and runs across the entire United States. It is an enjoyable movie to watch because of these fun stories.

Forrest Gump is really creative and interesting. He is a mentally disabled man who always has big life surprises. He is extremely kind to people, but they are often not kind to him.He is very curious and tries many things in life.In the beginning of the movie,you may think he will never succeed in life. Later in the movie, you can start to see that he succeeds in many big ways.He becomes rich and even marries the girl he loves in his whole life.

Why does the writer say“he succeeds in many big ways”?（不超過15個詞）

Good films are valuable treasures. My favourite film is calledWolf Warriors 2.I have watched it many times.

In this film, Jason Wu is not only the director but also the lead role of Leng Feng. It tells a story about how he manages to rescue the Chinese people in Africa. What’s more, it is a film that joins humour and exciting action together. Each time I watch the film, I feel that our country is powerful, and I feel a strong sense of pride. People around the world also think highly of the film.

All in all, I should learn from the lead role. If I have the courage and determination like him,I can overcome all the difficulties in life.
