“No one knows how a movie is made — though everyone thinks they do,” Hanks said. “I’ve made a ton of movies , and I’m still amazed at how films come together. From a flicker of an idea to the flickering image onscreen, the whole process is a miracle.”
Hanks has led some of cinema’s most celebrated films over his four-decade career, including “Forest Gump” and “Philadelphia,” both of which earned him the Academy Award for best actor. Hanks was also Oscar-nominated for “Cast Away,” “Big,” “Saving Private Ryan” and 2020’s “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.” But it’s unclear which titles in Hanks’ filmography he considers to be the best.
“Movie-making is very hard work over a very long period of time that consists of so many moments of joy slapped up against an equal number of feelings of self-loathing,” he said. “It is the greatest job in the world and the most confounding of labors that I know of.” Hanks, who starred in box office smash “Elvis” and Disney’s live-action “Pinocchio” remake this year, is gearing up to release his first novel, titled “The Making of Another Major Motion Picture Masterpiece,” out May 9, 2023. Per the synopsis, the book is about the making of a “colossal, star-studded, multimillion-dollar superhero action film and the humble comic book that inspired it.”
Easy. Volunteers, Bachelor Party, Big and Toy Story
The Burbs.
4 pretty good? Never seen
Philadelphia, Castaway, The Terminal, Polar Express
Forrest Gump, saving private ryan, the road to perdition, the green mile. There his best ❤️ but he’s definitely made more then 4 good movies.
Splash, The Man with One Red Shoe, The Money Pit, Joe Vs The Volcano
Ok, Captain Modesty.
He just being very humble to say that. I think his good movie were more than that.
That Thing You Do and the other 3! 😄
Big would be one of them.
Saving Private Ryan; The Green Mile; Forrest Gump; Road To Perdition
Well he’s absolutely made more than 4 pretty good movies, despite the comments, that’s for sure. I tried to come up with 4 and kept ending up with 10. Lol
He’s just embarrassed about the last pos
The Terminal, Road to Perdition, Bridge of Spies, Philadelphia.
- Forrest Gump - Cast Away - Catch me if you can - The Green Mile
Forrest Gump, Saving Private Ryan, The Green Mile, Cast Away. For leading roles.
Philadelphia has got to be in there somewhere
he didn't make them though, just appeared in them
Saving Private Ryan Captain Phillips Charlie Wilson’s War Toy Story (series)
My votes for: Cast Away, Catch Me If You Can, Forrest Gump and Philadelphia.
The Man with One Red Shoe The Bonfire of the Vanities Volunteers Nothing in Common
Wilson definitely knows which 4 of them
Volunteers, The Money Pit, Turner and Hooch, Nothing In Common
Joe vs the Volcano Dragnet Turner & Hooch Toy Story sorry to report Hanks hasn't done a good movie since 1995 ;)
Apollo 1, 2, 5, 13
I'm guessing he probably meant a few of his movies in a humble way, and not literally 4.
I hate when actors say this shit. SHUT UP.
Big Splash The green mile Perdition
Forrest Gump, Philadelphia, Cast Away and I'm going Big, only because it was one of my favorites as a little kid.
Forrest Gump, Cast Away, Saving Private Ryan, Captain Phillips.
Bachelor party … x 3
Maybe it's me, and it probably is me, but I'm finding Tom Hanks very tiresome these days.
He’s made lots of good ones and some underrated ones: saving private Ryan, splash, Philadelphia, cast away. But also Forrest Gump, big, Apollo 13, road to perdition.
A League of Their Own, That Thing You Do, Splash and Forrest Gump. Also Saving Mr Banks, it’s 5 lol
My Guess is Hanks was being self-effacing or joking and didn't literally mean he's only made 4 good movies, Just in the 90s he was in Saving Private Ryan, Philadelphia, Forrest Gump, Apollo 13, A Legue of Their Own, Toy Sory & Sleepless in Seattle, he's made a ton of great films.
Saving Private Ryan, Toy Story, Castaway, and Forrest Gump
Easily his top one is Bachelor Party.
Im sure he didn’t mean anything specific with what was likely an off-the-cuff, self-deprecating, jokey comment, but pretending he did: I’m going to assume even he thinks Forrest Gump sucks now, so going with Philadelphia, Cast Away, & his Spielberg collabs. Maybe sub Big for CA.
Bachelor Party, Sleepless in Seattle, Philadelphia, Forrest Gump
Joe vs volcano Sleepless in seattle You've got mail The man with one red shoe
You've got mail is one of them
Big toy story 1 ,2 and Forrest Gump
He’s not wrong.
Toy Story 1,2,3 & 4.... This is tongue in cheek before anyone has an aneurysm.
There’s a strong likelihood that he was just being humble/joking when he said this. I highly doubt he was serious.
The road to perdition The green mile Cast away Splash
Here's one of them.
Big Gump Philadelphia Splash Apollo 13 Saving Private Ryan Catch Me If You Can
Bachelor Party, Dragnet, That Thing You Do!, Cloud Atlas...
BS!
The Green Mile, The Burbs, Philadelphia & Toy Story 3.
The Burbs has to be one of them.
A League of Their Own Philadelphia Big Catch Me if You Can
Saving Private Ryan, A League of Their Own, Philadelphia & Toy Story 3
His color does not look good.
HighDefDiscNews I love That Thing You Do!, so that HAS to be one of the four.

My guess would be that he’s referring to Saving Private Ryan, Forrest Gump, Philadelphia, and Big. But he could also be talking about Bachelor Party, Splash, Cast Away, and Toy Story. It’s hard to say.
Big Forrest Gump Philadelphia Sleepless in Seattle
Splash, Dragnet, The Burbs and Turner and Hooch.

“But it’s unclear which titles in Hanks’ filmography he considers to be the best.” 😩😩
Forrest Gump Saving Private Ryan The Green Mile Catch Me If You Can
Philadelphia, A League of their Own, Cast Away, Big
def more than 4
Guaranteed Joe vs the Volcano is one of them.
