Simply Awesome

Rating: Null/10 (2 April 2000)

This movie grew on me when I walked out of the theatre I gave it a 7, but taking the time to appreciate it I gave it a 9. Tom Hanks was his usual excellent self along with the rest of the cast. Good to see David Morse in his role as Brutus. Micheal Duncan as Joe Cofee was excellent if not only for the biggest arms I have ever seen on screen. I heard all the other reviews saying how it was too long and how the electrocution scene was gruesome (Which by the way it was). But the story was good enough for me not to look at my watch once. For me the story was about how good men die at the hands of society and sometimes there's nothing we can do. Real touching drama. A definite go see....
