《2012》的觀後感Each piece will be a disaster, people to ponder for a while, mostly from the fear of human beings to nature. 美國的災難片會讓人多沉思一會,因為在震撼的場面之中總會加入一些關於人性的探討。 The United States, more than a disaster film will make people ponder for a while, because the shock will always include some of the scenes among the discussion about human nature.
艾默里奇在之前一次的采訪中曾經說過,《2012》將會成為災難片的終結者。 Emmerich once in the previous interview once said, "2012" will be a disaster film's demise. 三個小時的電影看下來,雖然不能保證說後無來者,但是的確前無古人,而且即使這是一部不能帶上腦子、只要帶上眼球的電影,想要超越也不是一件能夠輕易做到的事。 Three hours of movie watching down, we can not guarantee that none ever after, but it really unprecedented, but even if this is a can not bring my mind, as long as the eye onto the film and want to go beyond is not one to easily achieve thing. 至少,裡面出色的特效能讓人的腎上腺素和汗液的分泌都增加許多——如此足以載入史冊的特效製作,可是占據了片尾字幕幾乎一半長度的龐大的特效工作人員的成果,當然還有龐大的經費支持。 At a minimum, which is good for the good effects of adrenaline and sweat secretion increased in number - so enough to go down in history effects proction, but account for almost half of the length of the end credits of the effects of a large staff of the results, of course, huge financial support. 艾默里奇把地震、海嘯、火山噴發這樣的災害全部集中起來,並且用遠超歷史記錄可能存在的強度和范圍把整個地球搖來晃去,產生了各種我們平時想都不敢想的場景,比如讓肯尼迪號航母把白宮壓爆啊,海嘯漫過喜馬拉雅山啊等等,足以讓之前的同類影片相形見絀。 Emmerich to earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions such a disaster all together, and used far more than the historical record may exist in the intensity and scope of the whole earth shaking to Akira to go, resulting in a variety we usually think the unthinkable scene, for example so that the aircraft carrier John F. Kennedy to the White House press blasting ah, ah tsunami submerged the Himalayas, etc., enough to make a similar video before the dwarfs. 甚至為了地震場景的拍攝,特效組製做了專門的可以搖動的平台,用來讓演員有更真實的演出。 Even to the earthquake scene of shooting, special effects team have done a special system that can shake the platform for allowing his actors to a more realistic performance. 人類的滅亡倘若真能如此華麗,倒也不算太糟糕。 If the extinction of mankind really could be so beautiful, the idea is not too bad. 與特效相關的一點,是其中那些方舟的設計,諸如可以升起來的塔台、側面可開啟的艙門、巨大的傳動裝置和具有巨大科幻感的外形,無一不是吸引人的地方吶。 And effects related point, is one of those Ark design, such as the tower can rise up the side of the door can be opened, a huge sci-fi gear, and with great sense of shape, and both are attractive places na.
世界末日對整個人類來說是一個最大的考驗,如果明天一切都將不存在,你會怎麼做? End of the world for the whole of humanity is one of the biggest test, if tomorrow, all would not exist, how would you do? 你更關注的是生存還是尊重? You are more concerned about the survival or respected? 選擇前者的是那位俄羅斯富豪,選擇後者的是那位美國總統。 Who choose the former is the Russian billionaire, who opt for the latter is the U.S. president. 然而,因為人性使然,總統醒悟之前一直在剝奪民眾的知情權,富豪最終卻用自己的生命托起了下一代。 However, because of human nature, the president wake up until the deprivation of the people's right to know, the rich end up with their own lives hold up the next generation.
如果真有世界末日,我們是註定買不到方舟船票的,註定要被大海嘯吞噬的。 If there end of the world, we are doomed to buy tickets the ark, and is destined to be swallowed by the tsunami. 所以,記得一定要在2012前好好珍惜沒有地震沒有火山沒有洪水的日子。 Therefore, we must remember that before 2012 there is no treasure there is no volcanic earthquakes do not flood days. 阿凡達英語觀後感Yesterday I went to watch 3D IMAX 'Avatar' with my mother and the teachers in her school. I have to admit that the film is such a wonder that I thought it is well worth watching in one's whole life. 'Avatar' is not just a film. Yes the view in it is really beautiful, charming, amazing, wonderful...I can use hundreds of words to discribe what I saw. The film is not just about the love story between a 'human' and a Na'vi princess, but also a ecational file.
The film has someting in common with the USA history. The Na'vi people live on the planet called Pandora, seems like the Indian people who used to live on the America continent. They first welcomed the new guys who came to settled on the new land. They gave them food, provide them with warm clothing, and taught them the living skills, including how to hunt, to build house... But soon everything changed. The settlers became robbers. They robbed many things of the Indians, and treated them very bad, even began to drive them out of their living places. The Indians became homeless. What a shame! The new settlers treated their benedactor in such a crul way. How coldblood they were.
In this film, the charactors were just changed. The Americans are changed into human beeings, and the locol Indians turn into the Na'vi people on the Pandora. They begin to rob again. They, or should I say 'we' are miserly. We have already damaged too much on the earth. The environment has been destroyed, the water has been wasted, the air has been polluted, the forest has been cut, millions of animals have been killed and we can never see them again. It is just so sad! I just cannot stand it. We must live in harmony with the nature.
On the The U.N. Climate Change conference, which was held in Copenhagen, Denmark, our Chinese govenmengt published our aim, recing the Carbon Dioxide. The USA government did not promise anything, they just focus on their own instry development. Do they really want to act like what the film has shown? Though I admire Mr. Obama, I can't understand why did he do this.
In the film, I saw a Circumstances, the commander told the soldior that the Na'vi people believe that the Eywa would bless them everybody laughed at it. Because they don't have anything to believe in. Or can I say they just believe in themselves. It is so sad! People hang together because they have the same belief. But the soldiors in this film, have completed been coldblood killer. What did they fight for? For resources? Then they're robbers. For the commander's orders? Then they're idiot...
⑶ 英語電影影評2篇。 150字一篇
Since the beginning of the movie "tiny times is always accompanied by a controversial, by contrast," small age 2 "more than" small age 1 "certain content. In the small age 2, in addition to dazzling material show, we saw three is got a double degree, what efforts as for her, no film. After graation, she still support the family embarrassment girlfriends, and even to rely on the power of the family. While Gu Yuan after a girlfriend, the pain of infidelity, eventually be able to choose tolerance, give up the wealth to regain the love...
"Little time" is not the absolute difference, more is not absolute good, it builds the controversy contributed to its box office, perhaps this dispute is also bring the audience really harvest.
電影《小時代》自誕生以來始終伴隨著爭議,相比而言,《小時代2》比《小時代1》更多了某些內容。在《小時代2》里,除了光怪陸離的物質秀,我們看到了顧里大三就拿到了雙學位,至於她付出了怎樣的努力,電影沒有表現。畢業後,她仍然接濟著家境困窘的閨蜜,即使是依靠著家族的力量。而顧源則在經歷了女朋友身體出軌的痛苦後,最終能夠選擇寬容,放棄財富來重拾愛情……
《小時代》不是絕對差,更不是絕對好,它所營造的爭議造就了它的票房,或許這爭議也才是帶給觀眾的真正收獲。
《2012》是一部災難巨片,片中當然少不了許多震撼的地球毀滅情景。當地震來臨,高樓像兒童的積木玩具一樣倒塌,溫馨的房屋眨眼間坍陷為一片廢墟。在大自然狂暴的力量面前,人顯得如此無力,幾秒鍾,或者幾分鍾,在地震、火山、海嘯、超級洪災面前,都消失的無影無蹤。但我也看見美國總統在災難註定來臨的時刻,選擇留在美國與自己的人民在一起直到最後時刻,「船長不願丟下正在沉沒的船,這是他高貴的選擇」
按照瑪雅人的預言,2012年12月21日是地球的毀滅日。雖然,這只是一個預言,但值得我們思考。在大自然面前,我們都是渺小的。在巨大的自然破壞力前,我們都是無力的,唯一能拯救自己的,除了方舟,更重要的是我們自己,是我們天性中光輝燦爛的人性,是為了親人和朋友不惜付出一切乃至生命的英勇。當我們能夠做到這一切,我們也才能夠拯救自己,我們也才能夠拯救人類和文明。
2012" is a disaster epic, the film of course, and ultimately, the Earth's destruction of many shocking scenes. When the earthquake coming, high-rise building blocks, like children's toys, like the collapse of a warm house for a blink of an eye Tanxian ruins. Rage in the face of the forces of nature, people seem so weak, a few seconds, or minutes, in the earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, floods in front of a super, all disappear without a trace. But I also saw the U.S. president in the disaster destined to come a time chosen to remain in the United States and their people together until the last moment, "the captain was unwilling to leave the sinking ship, it was his noble choice"
In accordance with the Mayan prophecy, December 21, 2012 destruction of Earth Day. Although this is only a prediction, but it is worth our consideration. In the face of nature, we are all petty. The enormous destructive power of nature, we are powerless, the only way to save himself, in addition to the ark, but more importantly is that we ourselves, in the glorious nature of our humanity, to family and friends willing to give up everything and even lives heroic. When we can do all this, we also be able to save ourselves, we also be able to save mankind and civilization.

Night At The Museum Film Review
Ben Stiller is Larry Daley, new nightwatchman at New York』s struggling Museum of Natural History, where, unbeknown to the outside world, the exhibits spring chaotically to life after sk. Larry』s first experience is being pursued by a the skeletal remains of a T-Rex, and at this point the film looks like it could be quite a hoot. But it all goes pear-shaped as soon as an Easter Island statue cracks an insipid joke and the Neanderthals start grunting. According to former security officers Dick Van Dyke and Mickey Rooney, an ancient Egyptian tablet is to blame. So, with the help of Robin Williams』 waxwork Teddy Roosevelt, Owen Wilson』s miniaturised cowboy and his nemesis, Steve Coogan』s inch-high Octavius, Larry sets out to restore calm… The special effects for this 『Jumanji』-esque fantasy must have cost a bomb. A shame, then, that the result is such an aimless and riotous mess.
還有一篇…
This movie was definitely a surprise with other actors making their appearance (i.e. Owen Wilson). Ben Stiller was hilarious and the movie overall was great along with the special effects. Definitely a great movie that made my family laugh and totally enjoy every moment of this movie. This was one of those surprise movies that had great special effects and some great surprises and twists and the movie was definitely moving a great speed, not boring at all. Robin Williams was great as President Teddy Roosevelt. For those who think this movie was not that great have no imagination because each one of my sons ranging in age 12 - 21 loved it and that speaks for itself. I would go watch it again.
⑹ 關於英文電影的觀後感
2012
除了宏大的場面,其實給我最深刻的還是影片中的對各種人物的親情、愛情、責任的展示,以及人類不分國籍互相關愛、災難面前相互扶持。影片的每個人物都是人類不同國籍不同層次的典型代表。當然與社會道德相悖的反面人物是不可缺少的,這是每個影視作品及社會都存在的。
1、親情
剛開始我的注意力完全被傑克遜一家給吸引住了,過於專注於熱愛的事業而忽略了妻子及子女的傑克遜在影片開始的時候,開著別人的豪華轎車帶著一子一女到曾經和妻子一起去過的黃石公園野遊,兒子一副完全愛理不理且表現出很喜歡媽媽的新男朋友的樣子,為父親這恐怕是莫大的諷刺。送子女回前妻家看到情敵戈登醫生和妻子出來應邀請他一起到家裡吃煎餅,傑克遜面對了另一個尷尬。送雙胞胎上飛機,在雙胞胎與他對罵時不小心透漏了災難的降臨及政府的計劃,傑克遜全速開車回到剛剛離開且正在面臨滅頂之災的前妻家,來營救他的家人當然也接上了前妻的男友。逃難的過程是影片的一大看點,也就在這一過程中,使這一家人一直隱藏的愛湧上來。傑克遜一直都是愛他的前妻及子女的,這個在開始就很明顯了,只是因為前妻和兒子不理解他對寫書的痴狂,在無奈中他埋藏著自己的感情和自尊;其實前妻和男友(不好意思,忘記他的名字了,暫且叫他醫生吧,因為他的職業是名醫生)在超市第一次遇到地裂時,醫生在言語上冒犯傑克,前妻極力維護他,就已經表現出了她仍然愛著傑克遜,後來他們偷偷進入方舟一路上相互扶持,尤其是只剩幾分鍾海嘯就到來而方舟的門卻關不上傑克遜返回去檢修時,兒子對父親的愛完全爆發了,趁大家不注意,諾亞尾隨父親,兩人齊心協力在最後幾秒的時候解除了故障,大門及時合上,方舟發動了引擎,整個船上的人脫離了危險;諾亞回到了母親身邊,媽媽問他爸爸呢,他說就在我後面,可是他們卻沒看到傑克遜,母子倆抱在一起為失去親人哭泣,指揮中心的人都陷入了哀默中,就在此刻傑克遜出現了,當他浮出水面與前妻兒子相擁的畫面通過監控顯示出現在大家面前時,所有的人都歡呼起來;(當時自己也鬆了一口氣,不喜歡看災難片的原因之一就在於導演或者作者總是喜歡把相愛的情侶或者溫暖的家庭生生拆散,讓人看得撕心裂肺的痛,還好此片沒有讓人如此絕望。)最後災難結束,地球恢復平靜,一家四口出現在大屏幕上,女兒問:「我們什麼時候回家?」父親說:「我們就在這兒建立一個新家好嗎?只要我們在一起到哪兒都是家。」我想說的是,在我們還來得及的時候,請好好珍惜身邊的或者遠方的家人吧,不要等到你的一個轉身變成了一世的訣別。如果兒子覺得父親不夠愛你,其實你錯了,因為作為一家之長,他必須養家糊口以及擔負著這樣或那樣的責任,他想把最好的東西放到你面前,而你的冷漠刺傷了他;如果父親覺得兒子不夠敬愛你,其實你也錯了,他只是感覺不到你的愛與重視,所以想用冷漠和叛逆來引起你的注意。
當方舟的大門要關上時,尤里用他所有的力氣和希望將兒子推上了方舟而自己卻葬身於海嘯,我才開始注意這個自始至終的反面人物,哪怕再冷酷無情的人也是有愛的。他漠視小人物時的殘忍,以及在危難時刻毫不猶豫的丟掉信任他的拳擊手和女友的無情,然而在這一刻他變成了一個偉大的父親,為兒子爭取活著的權利,將希望全部寄託到了生命尾聲的那跳躍著向上的一舉。
勞拉的父親,那個美國總統在最後關頭選擇了和國民一起面對這場災難,然而再偉大的人物也只是一個普通的父親,就在勞拉登上方舟以為父親在指揮中心忙碌時,打來了那個訣別的電話:「勞拉,如果讓你在等船之前知道,我想你是絕不會登船的。」
影片的另一個主人公,博士再登船之前也給父親打了最後一通電話,父親很安詳的等待著災難的降臨,並告訴博士:「我跟你媽媽的這一生過得都很精彩,我們最成功的是有這樣一個優秀的兒子。」博士父親的搭檔哈里也給一直冷戰的兒子打了多年來的第一通電話,然而卻沒來得及跟兒子說上一句話,但是導演留了一個讓觀眾想像的空間,因為哈里的小孫女說是爺爺打來的,這是不是意味著兒子已經知道了父親原諒了他去了一個日本妻子?畢竟父子之間還是有一些默契的。
影片里另一反面人物,我忘記他叫什麼名字了,在總統放棄生機後成為美國的總指揮的那個人,他像往常一樣給母親打了一個電話,還跟母親說下個星期的這個時候再打,手中拿著兩張票,然而89歲高齡腦子已經不清楚且腿腳不便的母親顯然不能登船的,手中那張多餘的票已經沒有可送之人,我想這是影片中最悲哀的人吧。
......
2、愛情
在每部影片中,愛情都是不老的傳奇,它的偉大與震撼在於沒有血緣關系的兩人之間因為存在愛情可以為對方付出生命。勞拉與博士在逃難以及拯救人類的過程中發現了共同的價值觀,在人們脫離危險後,愛情就這樣順理成章的產生了。
尤里和他漂亮的女朋友,救援人員請他們出示登船卡時,他們之間相互利用的關系爆漏,尤里早就知道女友和飛行員之間的關系,因此他毫不猶豫的丟棄了女友,而他的女朋友也在後來向傑克遜承認了她其實愛的的確是飛行員,她真應該早點兒做出選擇。然而她一直選擇呆在尤里身邊,也不過是看上了人家能夠拿安225作私人飛機的財富。貪婪的人總是沒有什麼好下場的,他們最後都沒有逃離那場災難,盡管在危難時刻他們都表現出了人性善良的一面。
傑克遜的前妻和戈登醫生,不說傑克遜,是因為他和前妻雖然離婚了,但他們彼此相愛,還共有一對兒女,已經成了深入骨髓的一家人。不可否認戈登醫生是愛傑克遜的前妻的,而這個女人顯然也是被對方吸引的,曾一度認為是愛他的,只是在最後關頭她才明白誰才是自己等的人,導演給戈登的結局看似殘忍,其實在愛情上這是最好的歸宿,藝術是高於生活的,也許在現實世界裡什麼都不如活著更有意義,而在藝術里的愛情總會以一種悲劇來成全另一場喜劇,傑克遜一家在一起了,他們都不會忘記戈登,尤其是被他愛的那個女人,他永遠活在她的心裡。我想說的並不是得不到愛情的人都應該以死亡這種悲壯的方式活在對方生命中,而是想說如果不能夠和我們愛的人在一起,請把最美好的自己留給他/她,然後退出他/她的生活,成全他/她的幸福,那麼我們就會永遠以最好的形象出現在那個人的回憶中。
......
3、友情
友情在這部影片里表現得並不是很多,畢竟在鋼筋水泥的現代社會,很少再有人關注一些與我們毫無血緣關系的人了,何況是人類面臨滅頂之災的時候?我能想到的只有博士的朋友在死亡到來之前的那通電話。但那個鏡頭是一家三口相擁著等待死神的降臨,毫無畏懼,也許親情真的更為偉大吧。
4、責任和人性
雖然沒有過多的描寫友情,但是影片中人與人之間,完全的陌生人或者僅僅是認識的人,在關鍵時刻都沒有隻顧自己逃命而放棄別人的生命,是責任還是人性的偉大,我無法區分。飛行員用自己生命的最後一刻駕駛那架安225,只是為了讓其他人安全降落,甚至尤里根本就不領情,更不會因此更感激他,他應該是知道的,然而還是選擇了犧牲。
尤里的女朋友在閘門合上前一霎那,把傑克遜的女兒麗莉推了上去,而自己卻失去了逃生的機會;
那個中國藏族老太太說:「我們都是地球的兒女!」這句話道出了人性的良知,也是對整個影片中那一個個對生命的尊重的行為的詮釋,她代表了最平凡的生活在社會底層的人民。
博士則代表了社會上層人物,不管是底層也好,上層也罷,他們都是人類道德規范的象徵。
不知道行不行啊?
⑺ 美國總統Eisenhower英文簡介
Dwight David Eisenhower was born in Denison, Tex., on Oct. 14, 1890. His ancestors lived in Germany and emigrated to America, settling in Pennsylvania, early in the 18th century. His father, David, had a general store in Hope, Kans., which failed. After a brief time in Texas, the family moved to Abilene, Kan.
After graating from Abilene High School in 1909, Eisenhower did odd jobs for almost two years. He won an appointment to the Naval Academy at Annapolis, but was too old for admittance. Then he received an appointment in 1910 to West Point, from which he graated as a second lieutenant in 1915.
He did not see service in World War I, having been stationed at Fort Sam Houston, Tex. There he met Mamie Geneva Doud, whom he married in Denver on July 1, 1916, and by whom he had two sons: Doud Dwight (died in infancy) and John Sheldon Doud.
Eisenhower served in the Philippines from 1935 to 1939 with Gen. Douglas MacArthur. Afterward, Gen. George C. Marshall, the army chief of staff, brought him into the War Department's General Staff and in 1942 placed him in command of the invasion of North Africa. In 1944, he was made Supreme Allied Commander for the invasion of Europe.
After the war, Eisenhower served as army chief of staff from Nov. 1945 until Feb. 1948, when he was appointed president of Columbia University.
In Dec. 1950, President Truman recalled Eisenhower to active ty to command the North Atlantic Treaty Organization forces in Europe. He held his post until the end of May 1952.
At the Republican convention of 1952 in Chicago, Eisenhower won the presidential nomination on the first ballot in a close race with Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio. In the election, he defeated Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson of Illinois.
Through two terms, Eisenhower hewed to moderate domestic policies. He sought peace through Free World strength in an era of new nationalisms, nuclear missiles, and space exploration. He fostered alliances pledging the United States to resist 「Red」 aggression in Europe, Asia, and Latin America. The Eisenhower Doctrine of 1957 extended commitments to the Middle East.
At home, the popular president lacked Republican congressional majorities after 1954, but he was reelected in 1956 by 457 electoral votes to 73 for Stevenson.
While retaining most Fair Deal programs, he stressed 「fiscal responsibility」 in domestic affairs. A moderate in civil rights, he sent troops to Little Rock, Ark., to enforce court-ordered school integration.
With his wartime rank restored by Congress, Eisenhower returned to private life and the role of elder statesman, with his vigor hardly impaired by a heart attack, an ileitis operation, and a mild stroke suffered while in office. He died in Washington, DC, on March 28, 1969.
⑻ 求一篇《阿甘正傳》的影評。中英都有的。謝謝。
本片最吸引人的地方就在其隱藏在主人公行為下的哲學,讓我們暫且稱其為「Gumpism(阿甘哲學)」吧。仔細思考一下阿甘哲學的本質,你會驚奇地發現阿甘哲學和中國古代歷史上兩個著名的思想有異曲同工之妙。一個是道教老子提倡的「無為」思想。任憑周圍的世界如何變化,阿甘總是我行我素。他從來不是事件的發起者,只是像風中的羽毛一樣響應著那些事件,始終保持著自己思想的純凈和無憂無慮。而那些嘗試去改變,與歷史進程作斗爭的人都最終受到了相應的懲罰。阿甘的處世態度,就是一種被動的、自願的、隨波逐流的態度。
無為思想之所以在本片中得到推崇,是因為理性--這種做任何事都必須有理由的原則的集合--被證明是容易犯錯誤的。拿布巴為例,在臨死的時候,布巴問阿甘「為什麼」,阿甘只是簡單地回了句「你要死了」,英文原文更簡單,就是「u died」。這種回答拒絕了給布巴的死提供任何解釋,而事實上阿甘完全可以從政治、經濟、社會等各方面給予布巴越戰起因的深層次的解釋,他不這樣做的原因就是:在布巴只有幾秒鍾的存活時間的狀況下,一切解釋都是多餘和毫無意義的。或者也可以理解為,越戰本身就是一場錯誤的戰爭,沒有人能給出一個合適的理由來解釋它為什麼發生。片中還有一個例子就是美國前總統約翰肯尼迪的遇刺事件,本片同樣沒有給出任何解釋,從歷史的角度來看,這一安排是十分合理的,因為數十年來美國人一直未能弄清肯尼迪遇刺的真相,所以影片里如果給出任何解釋都將會是很愚蠢的。阿甘在理性(rational)和合理性(reasonable)之間,選擇了後者作為自己的人生哲學。
阿甘哲學中另外一個比較「東方」的思想就是「塞翁失馬,焉知非福」,事情的好與壞之間並沒有絕對的界限,在某種特定的情境下,兩者是可以相互轉化的。人的特質之間可以存在好與壞的轉化,阿甘天生智商低,但這點在他進入軍隊里就轉化成了優勢。珍妮天生麗質,後來卻只能淪為脫衣俱樂部的唱歌小姐。類似的,事件之間的好與壞也能進行轉化,阿甘被人欺負,卻因此發現自己能跑的潛質,從而進大學後加入了校橄欖球隊,也不幸地在畢業後參軍去越南打仗,在那他遇到了一生最好的朋友布巴,也決心以後事業的方向--在自己的家鄉買一艘捕蝦船捕蝦,之後遇到了暴風雨,然後他們的船隻是僅存的一隻,最終致富了。。。
阿甘哲學還有一個重要的特徵就是它的不可表徵性。當阿甘准備在華盛頓紀念堂前進行反戰演說時,話筒的電源正好被周圍的人群不小心給切斷了,當話筒恢復有聲狀態時,阿甘剛好已經說完了。在場的觀眾和銀幕前的觀眾都沒能知道阿甘究竟說了些什麼。阿甘跑遍全國的壯舉吸引了許多忠實的追隨者,當被問及是何種宗教信仰讓阿甘堅持下來的時候,阿甘什麼也沒有說。阿甘式的真相,是由它的不可表徵性來定義的。
阿甘與美國
電影評論界在阿甘作為一個電影角色其代表整個美國這個國家的可能性的分析上一直有著濃厚的興趣。這個爭論產生了三種不同的說法:一是阿甘是美國傳統的那種簡單的、純凈的哈克貝利費恩理想主義的化身;二是他代表了走過過去200年的歷史軌跡的美國;三是他反射了美國對其周圍遭難的一種忽視甚至是無視。
第一種評論說的是阿甘是一種美國理想主義的化身:一種純凈的美德,一種高尚而誠實的簡單,不受舊世界偏見和復雜性的限制。阿甘的簡單使他能跨過種族和階級的障礙,不受它們存在的干擾。如果有兩個美國,一個是在外侵略在內分離,還有一種「可能的」具有人道精神、知性、團結的美國,那麼阿甘無疑代表了後者。正如這樣,阿甘提供給了美國觀眾一種對其國家寬容和人道的自我定義的一種可能性。
還有評論者認為阿甘就是近現代美國,其作為一個國家在歷史進程中走來的一個代表。美國--和片中的阿甘一樣--就像是一個愚笨的巨人笨拙地在歷史中前進著,但是嘗試著給身邊的人或事物帶來好處。美國作為被上帝選中的給全人類造福這一觀點在影片中也能找到影子,那就是命中註定給周圍人帶去希望的阿甘。
然而,評論界還有一種不太積極的說法。說阿甘是一個沒有能力理解周圍世界的傻子。他不了解自己好運之外的外界的不幸,也不知道自己的成功是建立在別人不幸的基礎上的。從這個角度來說,阿甘反映了美國的一種道義的失敗。就像阿甘一樣,很多美國人也有過不理解自己的幸運是建立在別人的痛苦之上的經歷。作為個人,阿甘的道德標準是無可爭議的,但是他也同樣自願參軍去越南打仗,卻從來沒有考慮過會給越南當地人民帶來多麼嚴重的後果;為了掙錢,他也獲取了商業上的優勢由於風暴打翻了他的競爭對手的船。阿甘是一個具有兩面性的角色,同樣,他所代表的美國也是。
阿甘和歷史
意識形態可以定義為「個人與他的實際生存狀況的理想關系的一種表達」,從這個意義上,阿甘正傳是一部意識形態的電影。他是一部傳統意義上的好萊塢作品,對歷史採取了完全樂觀的態度,粉飾了歷史上南部的種族問題和60年代的社會問題
