A Stephen King fairy tale

Rating: 6/10 (31 July 2000)

If you love Stephen King film the Shawshank Redemption, you will even like this film more. If you're some kind of philosopher, this film can be seen as a modern version of the story of Jesus Christ's crucifixion.
When you leave the cinema, you may think differently about death penalty, although the film is more than just an anti-death penalty statement. If you don't believe in magic and if you don't like the cast of 'good'(Coffey, Des, ...) and 'bad' people (Percy, ...), then this 3-hour-movie will be hard to swallow. I, for my part, tend to be in the 2nd group.
