How sad is this?
Admirable film.
A Masterpiece!
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Perfect Movies from plot, cinematography, take, anything
The movie is nothing especially. It is not bad and have good scenes but it is realy overrated. I cant understand this rating.
This movie shows us the power of perseverance. Whenever I felt low , I watched this movie. True masterpiece.
The Shawshank Redemption was never a summer blockbuster or a critically acclaimed behemoth of a film but it is widely regarded now as one of the best American films of all-time. Many people have cited this movie as having changed their lives for the better when they were going through difficult times in their personal or professional lives. Above all else, The Shawshank Redemption is a story about one man's ability to remain hopeful during the most difficult and harsh circumstances. As Red states at the end of the film, "Get busy livin' or get busy dyin.' That's goddamn right."
