      The Man With One Red Shoe is much worse than Joe Versus the Volcano. And if made for TV movies count, you have to throw in Mazes and Monsters. Oh and Bonfire of the Vanities was a famous flop. And Volunteers was pretty bad. People forget how bad some of his early stuff was.

      Hell, both Forrest Gump and Castaway were tremendously overrated. Also the unwatchable Cloud Atlas and the stupid Dan Brown movies.

      <suddenly dawns on me that Tom Hanks makes a lot of bad movies>

        Tbh I struggle to come up with an actual good and not just mediocre movie that Tom Hanks was in.

        Adding to the trash list: Incredibly loud and extremely close. They massacred the book.

      i am honestly struggling to think of a good movie that man is in, mediocre and pandering are the two words i would use to describe.

        Saving Private Ryan is at least “very good” if not one of the greatest war movies of all time.

        And The Burbs is classic 80s screwball comedy simmered to perfection (even if it isn’t a 'high art ’ genre)

          Plus Saving Private Ryan directly allowed him to make Band of Brothers which is easily one of the best wat shows of all time.
