Voucherboys top 28 Magical Movies of all Time Part 6
We are continuing today with the Top 28 Magcial Movies countdown and have two fresh films selected for you today.
The criteria is that the movie had an impact on the audience and that it played more on the imagination of the audience than trying to trick them with fancy CGI. There will be 2 movies listed every day, so make sure you bookmark and get back to me every morning to follow along as the list gets ever closer to that number one Magical Movie.
18. Kick-Ass (2010)
This is most likely the freshest film this list will produce, the strangest and most wonderful title that hides what almost every teenager since the invention of super heroes has wondered.
Dave Lizewski is an unnoticed high school student and comic book fan with a few friends and who lives alone with his father. His life is not very difficult and his personal trials not that overwhelming. However, one day he makes the simple decision to become a super-hero even though he has no powers or training.
For its sheer brilliance and somewhat scary reality considerations (in a super hero movie) it lands hard on spot 18!
17. Forest Gump (1994)
This film may be the one film everyone knows about. Not only for the feel good quality and sad story it presents, it is also the film that completely wiped out of existance for a good ten year, what in this writing moment is the number 1 top 250 Movie of All Time – Shawshank Redemption. Forest Gump did however let us dream away into this magical life of Forest Gump whose story tops many legendary lives.
Forrest, Forrest Gump is a simple man with little brain activity but good intentions. He struggles through childhood with his best and only friend Jenny. His ‘mama’ teaches him the ways of life and leaves him to choose his destiny. Forrest joins the army for service in Vietnam, finding new friends called Dan and Bubba, he wins medals, starts a table tennis craze, creates a famous shrimp fishing fleet, inspires people to jog, create the smiley, write bumper stickers and songs, donating to people and meeting the president several times.
However this is all irrelevant to Forrest who can only think of his childhood sweetheart Jenny. Who has messed up her life. Although in the end all he wants to prove is that anyone can love anyone.
