Oddly, Hanks is one of small handful of contemporary A-listers (Cruise, Pitt, etc) who are nowhere in my top 50 films.
I know The Terminal gets a poor rap, though to be fair it is Hanks playing fish outta water same as Big. The movie is decent meh, his performance is fun enough.

1. A League of Their Own--playing hero types (Sully, Jim Lovell, Captain Miller, Captain Phillips) always makes an actor look great. But taking this mediocre, self-hating goofball character and giving him a certain kind of nobility takes real talent (and he was funny, too). Few actors could do this like Hanks does as Jimmy Dugan.
2. Forrest Gump--another actor could have played this as a cloying, sentimental character; Hanks avoids that cliche.
3. Bosom Buddies--what could have been just another silly, one-joke sitcom is enhanced by Hanks' natural ability to actually be funny.
In no particular order:
Philadelphia
Apollo 13
Big
Joe vs. the Volcano
Splash
Dragnet
Nothing in Common
Even in the less-than-great stuff, he always stands out as likeable despite himself. And always remember this bit of wisdom:
Avoid the clap!--Jimmy Dugan

The terminal the man with one red shoe! never seen that one. gunna have to change that. Be warned, I saw it in the movie theater when it first came out and was disappointed (may have been due to high expectations). Maybe I'd feel differently if I watched it today, I don't know, but just be on guard. |
