Tom Hanks Movies

Tom Hanks Movies seem to always reward audiences with more than unexpected. Be it Forrest Gump or Castaway, we can always expect the true cinematic experience with Hanks in the leading role! Thus his movies have come to be known as the best in Hollywood, second to none. Tom Hanks Movies have raised to great acclaim from his very first movie, “He Knows You Are Alone”. Since then he has acted in a lot of movies and subsequently taken up direction, production and writing the screen plays for various hit movies.

Like all movie artists Tom Hanks has also seen a lot many ups and downs in his movie career. While movies like Forrest Gump and Philadelphia were greatly received, there were certain Tom Hanks Movies that did not get the greatest of reviews. In spite of certain criticism, Tom Hanks quickly built a movies base that no other Hollywood artist could surpass. Till 2009 Tom Hanks Movies have reached 43 in number and two more movies are in production for 2010 and 2011.

This one of a kind artist was born on the 9th of July in 1956 as Thomas Jeffery Hanks. He has become known for his leading roles of drama movies, thriller films, and for providing voices for animation flicks. The years between 1986 and till about 1990 surely were a phase of his movie career that did not shine very well but after that he did get to play some really good roles and more than made up for all that time that was lost in that ill-fated 4 year period.

Tom Hanks Movies have always been a personal favorite for many people, especially when his performance is heart-felt and moving. Performances like the character Andre Beckett from Philadelphia, and the lead role in Forrest Gump will be remembered for decades to come. He did win two academy awards for both these movies in the year of 1993 and 1994. As the son of Colin Hanks, Tom surely has lived up to his (or any other) father’s expectations due to his excelling in his craft. His current US box office gross in excess of 3 billion dollars also makes it clear that audiences also appreciate his work.

Since 2006, Tom Hanks Movies have taken different form in the types of characters he had chosen to play. As Robert Langdon, he has provided one of the most amazing performances ever. If the saying “wine gets better with age” is true anywhere, it surely is true in the case of this outstanding actor, producer, and director who has kept us on the edge of our seats at home and in theaters for years now. Simultaneously, he has also done few animation movies like the Simpsons, and Cars which did show the audience the more fun side of Tom.

Of course, we can’t forget that Tom Hanks began as a crazy character on a really silly TV sitcom. Do you remember him as Buffy Wilson on “Bosom Buddies”. Tom was hilarious in that role but just one of many funny men at the time. How many of them were able to develop their skills from that level to the apex of the entertainment industry that Tom Hanks now occupies? What an amazing transformation!
