Wow, frankly I am shocked that Forrest Gump was as low as it was in the popularity rankings among the voters.

Wow, I’m surprised at these results. I can’t believe Splash is that popular.

The Green Mile is good, but over-long. The one film that cements him as a star is definitely Forrest Gump, and probably one of my favorites from him, and his most overrated being Philadelphia.

I think Saving Private Ryan is a piece of drivel – two gory battle scenes separated by 90 minutes of phony sentiment – and I’m not looking forward to the Top War films list- I’m sure Spielberg’s war opus mucus will make the cut.

I’m definitely surprised, and happy, that people chose Green Mile because it was also my personal choice – it’s the best film in Hanks’s resume.

Loved the Green Mile but it doesn’t hold a candle to Saving Private Ryan! Never understood the fascination for Cast Away though

Hopefully I’ll be doing more Reader’s Choice soon, Rodney.

No appearance by Forrest Gump? Boo.

No Money Pit? Boo.

I’d have put Private Ryan before Green Mile but only just, and Cast Away third. Three utterly brilliant films in their own right.

Any chance of more “reader’s choices” coming along soon?

Shocked that Saving Private Ryan didn’t win. All good performances though.

Pretty surprised, but an awesome movie all the same. Guess people really connected with Tom Hanks and his infected bladder.

Shocked at the lack of love for Big.
