《2012》的观后感Each piece will be a disaster, people to ponder for a while, mostly from the fear of human beings to nature. 美国的灾难片会让人多沉思一会，因为在震撼的场面之中总会加入一些关于人性的探讨。 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访中曾经说过，《2012》将会成为灾难片的终结者。 Emmerich once in the previous interview once said, "2012" will be a disaster film's demise. 三个小时的电影看下来，虽然不能保证说后无来者，但是的确前无古人，而且即使这是一部不能带上脑子、只要带上眼球的电影，想要超越也不是一件能够轻易做到的事。 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，里面出色的特效能让人的肾上腺素和汗液的分泌都增加许多——如此足以载入史册的特效制作，可是占据了片尾字幕几乎一半长度的庞大的特效工作人员的成果，当然还有庞大的经费支持。 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、海啸、火山喷发这样的灾害全部集中起来，并且用远超历史记录可能存在的强度和范围把整个地球摇来晃去，产生了各种我们平时想都不敢想的场景，比如让肯尼迪号航母把白宫压爆啊，海啸漫过喜马拉雅山啊等等，足以让之前的同类影片相形见绌。 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. 甚至为了地震场景的拍摄，特效组制做了专门的可以摇动的平台，用来让演员有更真实的演出。 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. 人类的灭亡倘若真能如此华丽，倒也不算太糟糕。 If the extinction of mankind really could be so beautiful, the idea is not too bad. 与特效相关的一点，是其中那些方舟的设计，诸如可以升起来的塔台、侧面可开启的舱门、巨大的传动装置和具有巨大科幻感的外形，无一不是吸引人的地方呐。 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.
世界末日对整个人类来说是一个最大的考验，如果明天一切都将不存在，你会怎么做？ 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? 你更关注的是生存还是尊重？ You are more concerned about the survival or respected? 选择前者的是那位俄罗斯富豪，选择后者的是那位美国总统。 Who choose the former is the Russian billionaire, who opt for the latter is the U.S. president. 然而，因为人性使然，总统醒悟之前一直在剥夺民众的知情权，富豪最终却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，我们是注定买不到方舟船票的，注定要被大海啸吞噬的。 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，记得一定要在2012前好好珍惜没有地震没有火山没有洪水的日子。 Therefore, we must remember that before 2012 there is no treasure there is no volcanic earthquakes do not flood days. 阿凡达英语观后感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 英语电影影评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.
电影《小时代》自诞生以来始终伴随着争议，相比而言，《小时代2》比《小时代1》更多了某些内容。在《小时代2》里，除了光怪陆离的物质秀，我们看到了顾里大三就拿到了双学位，至于她付出了怎样的努力，电影没有表现。毕业后，她仍然接济着家境困窘的闺蜜，即使是依靠着家族的力量。而顾源则在经历了女朋友身体出轨的痛苦后，最终能够选择宽容，放弃财富来重拾爱情……
《小时代》不是绝对差，更不是绝对好，它所营造的争议造就了它的票房，或许这争议也才是带给观众的真正收获。
《2012》是一部灾难巨片，片中当然少不了许多震撼的地球毁灭情景。当地震来临，高楼像儿童的积木玩具一样倒塌，温馨的房屋眨眼间坍陷为一片废墟。在大自然狂暴的力量面前，人显得如此无力，几秒钟，或者几分钟，在地震、火山、海啸、超级洪灾面前，都消失的无影无踪。但我也看见美国总统在灾难注定来临的时刻，选择留在美国与自己的人民在一起直到最后时刻，“船长不愿丢下正在沉没的船，这是他高贵的选择”
按照玛雅人的预言，2012年12月21日是地球的毁灭日。虽然，这只是一个预言，但值得我们思考。在大自然面前，我们都是渺小的。在巨大的自然破坏力前，我们都是无力的，唯一能拯救自己的，除了方舟，更重要的是我们自己，是我们天性中光辉灿烂的人性，是为了亲人和朋友不惜付出一切乃至生命的英勇。当我们能够做到这一切，我们也才能够拯救自己，我们也才能够拯救人类和文明。
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.

⑸ 《night at the museum》电影英文介绍！！！
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.
还有一篇…
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 关于英文电影的观后感
2012
除了宏大的场面,其实给我最深刻的还是影片中的对各种人物的亲情、爱情、责任的展示，以及人类不分国籍互相关爱、灾难面前相互扶持。影片的每个人物都是人类不同国籍不同层次的典型代表。当然与社会道德相悖的反面人物是不可缺少的，这是每个影视作品及社会都存在的。
1、亲情
刚开始我的注意力完全被杰克逊一家给吸引住了，过于专注于热爱的事业而忽略了妻子及子女的杰克逊在影片开始的时候，开着别人的豪华轿车带着一子一女到曾经和妻子一起去过的黄石公园野游，儿子一副完全爱理不理且表现出很喜欢妈妈的新男朋友的样子，为父亲这恐怕是莫大的讽刺。送子女回前妻家看到情敌戈登医生和妻子出来应邀请他一起到家里吃煎饼，杰克逊面对了另一个尴尬。送双胞胎上飞机，在双胞胎与他对骂时不小心透漏了灾难的降临及政府的计划，杰克逊全速开车回到刚刚离开且正在面临灭顶之灾的前妻家，来营救他的家人当然也接上了前妻的男友。逃难的过程是影片的一大看点，也就在这一过程中，使这一家人一直隐藏的爱涌上来。杰克逊一直都是爱他的前妻及子女的，这个在开始就很明显了，只是因为前妻和儿子不理解他对写书的痴狂，在无奈中他埋藏着自己的感情和自尊；其实前妻和男友（不好意思，忘记他的名字了，暂且叫他医生吧，因为他的职业是名医生）在超市第一次遇到地裂时，医生在言语上冒犯杰克，前妻极力维护他，就已经表现出了她仍然爱着杰克逊，后来他们偷偷进入方舟一路上相互扶持，尤其是只剩几分钟海啸就到来而方舟的门却关不上杰克逊返回去检修时，儿子对父亲的爱完全爆发了，趁大家不注意，诺亚尾随父亲，两人齐心协力在最后几秒的时候解除了故障，大门及时合上，方舟发动了引擎，整个船上的人脱离了危险；诺亚回到了母亲身边，妈妈问他爸爸呢，他说就在我后面，可是他们却没看到杰克逊，母子俩抱在一起为失去亲人哭泣，指挥中心的人都陷入了哀默中，就在此刻杰克逊出现了，当他浮出水面与前妻儿子相拥的画面通过监控显示出现在大家面前时，所有的人都欢呼起来；（当时自己也松了一口气，不喜欢看灾难片的原因之一就在于导演或者作者总是喜欢把相爱的情侣或者温暖的家庭生生拆散，让人看得撕心裂肺的痛，还好此片没有让人如此绝望。）最后灾难结束，地球恢复平静，一家四口出现在大屏幕上，女儿问：“我们什么时候回家？”父亲说：“我们就在这儿建立一个新家好吗？只要我们在一起到哪儿都是家。”我想说的是，在我们还来得及的时候，请好好珍惜身边的或者远方的家人吧，不要等到你的一个转身变成了一世的诀别。如果儿子觉得父亲不够爱你，其实你错了，因为作为一家之长，他必须养家糊口以及担负着这样或那样的责任，他想把最好的东西放到你面前，而你的冷漠刺伤了他；如果父亲觉得儿子不够敬爱你，其实你也错了，他只是感觉不到你的爱与重视，所以想用冷漠和叛逆来引起你的注意。
当方舟的大门要关上时，尤里用他所有的力气和希望将儿子推上了方舟而自己却葬身于海啸，我才开始注意这个自始至终的反面人物，哪怕再冷酷无情的人也是有爱的。他漠视小人物时的残忍，以及在危难时刻毫不犹豫的丢掉信任他的拳击手和女友的无情，然而在这一刻他变成了一个伟大的父亲，为儿子争取活着的权利，将希望全部寄托到了生命尾声的那跳跃着向上的一举。
劳拉的父亲，那个美国总统在最后关头选择了和国民一起面对这场灾难，然而再伟大的人物也只是一个普通的父亲，就在劳拉登上方舟以为父亲在指挥中心忙碌时，打来了那个诀别的电话：“劳拉，如果让你在等船之前知道，我想你是绝不会登船的。”
影片的另一个主人公，博士再登船之前也给父亲打了最后一通电话，父亲很安详的等待着灾难的降临，并告诉博士：“我跟你妈妈的这一生过得都很精彩，我们最成功的是有这样一个优秀的儿子。”博士父亲的搭档哈里也给一直冷战的儿子打了多年来的第一通电话，然而却没来得及跟儿子说上一句话，但是导演留了一个让观众想象的空间，因为哈里的小孙女说是爷爷打来的，这是不是意味着儿子已经知道了父亲原谅了他去了一个日本妻子？毕竟父子之间还是有一些默契的。
影片里另一反面人物，我忘记他叫什么名字了，在总统放弃生机后成为美国的总指挥的那个人，他像往常一样给母亲打了一个电话，还跟母亲说下个星期的这个时候再打，手中拿着两张票，然而89岁高龄脑子已经不清楚且腿脚不便的母亲显然不能登船的，手中那张多余的票已经没有可送之人，我想这是影片中最悲哀的人吧。
......
2、爱情
在每部影片中，爱情都是不老的传奇，它的伟大与震撼在于没有血缘关系的两人之间因为存在爱情可以为对方付出生命。劳拉与博士在逃难以及拯救人类的过程中发现了共同的价值观，在人们脱离危险后，爱情就这样顺理成章的产生了。
尤里和他漂亮的女朋友，救援人员请他们出示登船卡时，他们之间相互利用的关系爆漏，尤里早就知道女友和飞行员之间的关系，因此他毫不犹豫的丢弃了女友，而他的女朋友也在后来向杰克逊承认了她其实爱的的确是飞行员，她真应该早点儿做出选择。然而她一直选择呆在尤里身边，也不过是看上了人家能够拿安225作私人飞机的财富。贪婪的人总是没有什么好下场的，他们最后都没有逃离那场灾难，尽管在危难时刻他们都表现出了人性善良的一面。
杰克逊的前妻和戈登医生，不说杰克逊，是因为他和前妻虽然离婚了，但他们彼此相爱，还共有一对儿女，已经成了深入骨髓的一家人。不可否认戈登医生是爱杰克逊的前妻的，而这个女人显然也是被对方吸引的，曾一度认为是爱他的，只是在最后关头她才明白谁才是自己等的人，导演给戈登的结局看似残忍，其实在爱情上这是最好的归宿，艺术是高于生活的，也许在现实世界里什么都不如活着更有意义，而在艺术里的爱情总会以一种悲剧来成全另一场喜剧，杰克逊一家在一起了，他们都不会忘记戈登，尤其是被他爱的那个女人，他永远活在她的心里。我想说的并不是得不到爱情的人都应该以死亡这种悲壮的方式活在对方生命中，而是想说如果不能够和我们爱的人在一起，请把最美好的自己留给他/她，然后退出他/她的生活，成全他/她的幸福，那么我们就会永远以最好的形象出现在那个人的回忆中。
......
3、友情
友情在这部影片里表现得并不是很多，毕竟在钢筋水泥的现代社会，很少再有人关注一些与我们毫无血缘关系的人了，何况是人类面临灭顶之灾的时候？我能想到的只有博士的朋友在死亡到来之前的那通电话。但那个镜头是一家三口相拥着等待死神的降临，毫无畏惧，也许亲情真的更为伟大吧。
4、责任和人性
虽然没有过多的描写友情，但是影片中人与人之间，完全的陌生人或者仅仅是认识的人，在关键时刻都没有只顾自己逃命而放弃别人的生命，是责任还是人性的伟大，我无法区分。飞行员用自己生命的最后一刻驾驶那架安225，只是为了让其他人安全降落，甚至尤里根本就不领情，更不会因此更感激他，他应该是知道的，然而还是选择了牺牲。
尤里的女朋友在闸门合上前一霎那，把杰克逊的女儿丽莉推了上去，而自己却失去了逃生的机会；
那个中国藏族老太太说：“我们都是地球的儿女！”这句话道出了人性的良知，也是对整个影片中那一个个对生命的尊重的行为的诠释，她代表了最平凡的生活在社会底层的人民。
博士则代表了社会上层人物，不管是底层也好，上层也罢，他们都是人类道德规范的象征。
不知道行不行啊?
⑺ 美国总统Eisenhower英文简介
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《阿甘正传》的影评。中英都有的。谢谢。
本片最吸引人的地方就在其隐藏在主人公行为下的哲学，让我们暂且称其为“Gumpism（阿甘哲学）”吧。仔细思考一下阿甘哲学的本质，你会惊奇地发现阿甘哲学和中国古代历史上两个著名的思想有异曲同工之妙。一个是道教老子提倡的“无为”思想。任凭周围的世界如何变化，阿甘总是我行我素。他从来不是事件的发起者，只是像风中的羽毛一样响应着那些事件，始终保持着自己思想的纯净和无忧无虑。而那些尝试去改变，与历史进程作斗争的人都最终受到了相应的惩罚。阿甘的处世态度，就是一种被动的、自愿的、随波逐流的态度。
无为思想之所以在本片中得到推崇，是因为理性--这种做任何事都必须有理由的原则的集合--被证明是容易犯错误的。拿布巴为例，在临死的时候，布巴问阿甘“为什么”，阿甘只是简单地回了句“你要死了”，英文原文更简单，就是“u died”。这种回答拒绝了给布巴的死提供任何解释，而事实上阿甘完全可以从政治、经济、社会等各方面给予布巴越战起因的深层次的解释，他不这样做的原因就是：在布巴只有几秒钟的存活时间的状况下，一切解释都是多余和毫无意义的。或者也可以理解为，越战本身就是一场错误的战争，没有人能给出一个合适的理由来解释它为什么发生。片中还有一个例子就是美国前总统约翰肯尼迪的遇刺事件，本片同样没有给出任何解释，从历史的角度来看，这一安排是十分合理的，因为数十年来美国人一直未能弄清肯尼迪遇刺的真相，所以影片里如果给出任何解释都将会是很愚蠢的。阿甘在理性（rational）和合理性（reasonable）之间，选择了后者作为自己的人生哲学。
阿甘哲学中另外一个比较“东方”的思想就是“塞翁失马，焉知非福”，事情的好与坏之间并没有绝对的界限，在某种特定的情境下，两者是可以相互转化的。人的特质之间可以存在好与坏的转化，阿甘天生智商低，但这点在他进入军队里就转化成了优势。珍妮天生丽质，后来却只能沦为脱衣俱乐部的唱歌小姐。类似的，事件之间的好与坏也能进行转化，阿甘被人欺负，却因此发现自己能跑的潜质，从而进大学后加入了校橄榄球队，也不幸地在毕业后参军去越南打仗，在那他遇到了一生最好的朋友布巴，也决心以后事业的方向--在自己的家乡买一艘捕虾船捕虾，之后遇到了暴风雨，然后他们的船只是仅存的一只，最终致富了。。。
阿甘哲学还有一个重要的特征就是它的不可表征性。当阿甘准备在华盛顿纪念堂前进行反战演说时，话筒的电源正好被周围的人群不小心给切断了，当话筒恢复有声状态时，阿甘刚好已经说完了。在场的观众和银幕前的观众都没能知道阿甘究竟说了些什么。阿甘跑遍全国的壮举吸引了许多忠实的追随者，当被问及是何种宗教信仰让阿甘坚持下来的时候，阿甘什么也没有说。阿甘式的真相，是由它的不可表征性来定义的。
阿甘与美国
电影评论界在阿甘作为一个电影角色其代表整个美国这个国家的可能性的分析上一直有着浓厚的兴趣。这个争论产生了三种不同的说法：一是阿甘是美国传统的那种简单的、纯净的哈克贝利费恩理想主义的化身；二是他代表了走过过去200年的历史轨迹的美国；三是他反射了美国对其周围遭难的一种忽视甚至是无视。
第一种评论说的是阿甘是一种美国理想主义的化身：一种纯净的美德，一种高尚而诚实的简单，不受旧世界偏见和复杂性的限制。阿甘的简单使他能跨过种族和阶级的障碍，不受它们存在的干扰。如果有两个美国，一个是在外侵略在内分离，还有一种“可能的”具有人道精神、知性、团结的美国，那么阿甘无疑代表了后者。正如这样，阿甘提供给了美国观众一种对其国家宽容和人道的自我定义的一种可能性。
还有评论者认为阿甘就是近现代美国，其作为一个国家在历史进程中走来的一个代表。美国--和片中的阿甘一样--就像是一个愚笨的巨人笨拙地在历史中前进着，但是尝试着给身边的人或事物带来好处。美国作为被上帝选中的给全人类造福这一观点在影片中也能找到影子，那就是命中注定给周围人带去希望的阿甘。
然而，评论界还有一种不太积极的说法。说阿甘是一个没有能力理解周围世界的傻子。他不了解自己好运之外的外界的不幸，也不知道自己的成功是建立在别人不幸的基础上的。从这个角度来说，阿甘反映了美国的一种道义的失败。就像阿甘一样，很多美国人也有过不理解自己的幸运是建立在别人的痛苦之上的经历。作为个人，阿甘的道德标准是无可争议的，但是他也同样自愿参军去越南打仗，却从来没有考虑过会给越南当地人民带来多么严重的后果；为了挣钱，他也获取了商业上的优势由于风暴打翻了他的竞争对手的船。阿甘是一个具有两面性的角色，同样，他所代表的美国也是。
阿甘和历史
意识形态可以定义为“个人与他的实际生存状况的理想关系的一种表达”，从这个意义上，阿甘正传是一部意识形态的电影。他是一部传统意义上的好莱坞作品，对历史采取了完全乐观的态度，粉饰了历史上南部的种族问题和60年代的社会问题
