A three hour tour

Rating: 10/10 (11 January 2000)

I thought this movie might be excruciatingly long to sit through...how wrong I was. I never looked at my watch once. In comparison to "THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION" (since everyone's doing it), "THE GREEN MILE" is a simple story of good and evil...and it is no "SHAWSHANK"...but it is a well-cast/well-acted movie that drew me into its characters and moved me as much as when I saw "E.T." for the first time as a kid. This movie is well worth your time and money.
