Top five all time Tom hanks movies

Tom hanks is one of the most versatile and greatest actor till date, not only has he been nominated maximum times for Academy Awards, this guy has a phenomenal choice when it comes to making movie.
1. Forrest Gump


This one surpasses genres, you wouldn't have seen anything quite like it. A dork, a beautiful person and served best with situational comedy. There's nothing in this movie that's missing.
2. Philadelphia
 

Denzel Washington with Tom hanks, two very competent actors, this movie was destined for Oscars. Not only did it raise issue like HIV, the vulnerability with which the movie sways the audience, is commendable.
3. Saving Private Ryan

My all time favorite war movie, (corny ones like Pearl harbor don't really stand a chance in front of this). This would definitely change something withing you.
4. Castaway
 
 The name suggests it all, based on a true story, the movie is enthralling, and has what i can say one of the most romantic moment ever.
5. Road to perdition
 
A side of Tom Hanks that wasn't discovered before.

For light comedies or easy screenplays there are movies like Catch me if you can, You have got mail, A league of their own and the one that paved the platform for his stardom 'Big'

CLARK KENT OR SUPERMAN?

Both look same, and a woman in love with any, should have figured it all out. Lets assume for a second, superman changes face, not just putting on old shady geek glasses, the one i so hate! If you saw the first installment of the movie, Clark and Lois had connection much before the Mighty Superman landed on the 'heartwagon'. Just when superman arrives, saves our lady, swept her off, its turns into one big Superman love story. If poor Clark Kent would have been some real earthly person, it would have been shattering! 
Superman is exactly the camouflage we woman fantasize about, our deep down desire to be rescued. Its a whole lot of crap, and i may now enter into the arena of what critics call 'Destructive Feminism'. When single, we exactly have the idea of how our guy should be, Great sense of humor, Gentleman, Personality .....
I have had the pleasure of meeting some really wild and simple girls over the years. Though both belong to the opposite end of the life's philosophy, with guys its just the same, a deep seeded urge to be rescued and protected. (Pampering is cooler though!)
Why really wasn't Lois in love with simple Clark? He helped her, probably would have been there and most of all in her eyes was a normal earthly guy. 
Superman though was always out of reach. So let's just say it, We like to mess our life up by wanting something that we might never receive, and even if we do, a lot of our much useful time and youth is wasted on it! 
Carrie Bradshaw is so fixated and into taming Mr Big (Sex and the city), Felicity (J.J Abraham's show) followed a guy, changed the course of her life only to discover he was cheating on her all the while.
All these wonderful women, (FICTION i know ) would have made a great deal out of life, only love or let's just say vision of love wasn't such a spoiler.
