Very good movie but doesn't live up to The Shawshank Redemption

Rating: 8/10 (28 April 2004)

I think the green Mile was a wonderul movie in many ways. A little too much violence maybe and a little farfetch'd but it does succeed very well. It is a touching movie after all though. Michael Clarke Duncan brings us a good performance in being charged of guiltiness but was actually an innocent man. Tom Hanks was also wonderful as he usually is in most of movies too and I did like Barry Pepper's character and David Morse's too. This was a well played movie with great scenes. The intellegence of what Frank Darabont put into this was pretty impressive and I'd like to see another movie of his but i don't think that The Green Mile beats The Shawshank Redemption.
8/10
