Shawshank is one of my favorite movies of all-time. It'd be hard to make an official top 10 list, but there would be no doubt this would be in the top 3. The acting, pace, atmosphere, narration are all perfectly done.
I first saw Shawshank Redemption when I was 14 years old, and I did enjoy it back then, but didn't fully appreciate it until I saw it years later.
But as good a movie as it is, it isn't one I am able to watch over and over. My mom always says its one of her favourite movies of all time though!
Shawshank aaredemption is easily one of my favorite movies
This is a great movie and I liked the whole Count of Monte Cristo analogy (my favorite book), but I really don't have much to say about it. I dislike Morgan Freeman in general but he does a decent job here. I didn't get to see it with a critical eye (meaning as an adult) until it was on netflix a few weeks ago, and I probably would have enjoyed it more if I didn't suddenly recall everything about it from seeing it as a kid.
Excellent movie. Like kekeru, I don't have much to say about it. It's just really really good. It's not one I'd watch over and over again, but if it were on, I'd have a hard time changing it to something else.
