The Shawshank Redempton

The Shawshank redemption - Frank Darabont

I had to come to prison to be a crook.






Plot:
Well...A guy called Andy is sent to jail for killing his wife (Or did he not?) and he makes friends with the prisoners easily..A guy called Red is impressed by his qualities and the movie shows the bonding between them...


People weren't allowed to take bath in prison regularly


Review:
Well...I can't understand why IMDb has this move in its #1 position but meh...It was good and not too good...It is a movie about hope...faith...friendship (One could confuse with homosexuality) and a path of fighting despair...The movie is full of memorable performances...Powerful acting and direction...People say its depressing and oh my god the best movie on earth...I don't think so...It isn't depressing...You may feel attaining redemption...But by that time the movie would have made you sleepy...This movie should be praised...It is a fine and a good movie and does its best portraying a prison (Dark and creepy) but it shouldn't be high enough...It is indeed worth watching more than two times...

P.S: Watch it if you are ready for a loong movie

Pros:
Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins...

Cons:
Too draggy and boring and overrated

Guaranteed...(Two Thumbs up)
