well done m.r Darabont,you have made another masterpiece.

Rating: 9/10 (10 December 2006)

First of all,I would like to say ,well done to Frank Darabont,because as he done with Stephen kings short story Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption,he has produced a masterful film the green mile from Stephen Kings best selling novel the green mile.
there is a brilliant cast in this film such as Tom Hanks,who is brilliant as Poul Eagecomb,the prison officer.Michael Clarke Dunkan is amazing as the slow witted, kind John Coffey.David Morse,an actor i really respect from seeing him in other various things is very good Brutus Brutal Howell.there are other great performances in this film as well,but them performances i mentioned would seem to me to be the best to mention.in this film every actor picked for a serious roll fell into place with the character from the book they were playing, and I would know as I read the novel.A acting performance I thought was brilliant, that i would like to just mention would be Doug Hutchison as the annoying Percy Wetmore.
Even though this film is amazingly good, it is not as good as the Shawshank Redemption,previously directed and wrote by Frank Darabont and Stephen King.This film could have won awards,but as it was for the Shawshank Redemption it was released to cinemas on a year full of memorable masterful brilliant films.In this case,It was the epic outstanding American Beuaty which won the Oscer and to be honest deservedly so.
this film is another outstanding film from Darabont who is a great director,but still you feel he will not be remembered as much as Spielberg or Coppola,because he only is making brilliant films not very often,while for example Spielberg is making brilliant films the whole time.
back to the film the story and plot of this film taking from the novel is extremely good and the casting person who selected actors for the rolls of the characters in the novel is the real genius,because the casting of this film is brilliant, because anyone else apart from tom hanks for the main roll of Poul Eagecombe,the prison officer and this film might not have worked at all well.
I would just like to say that this film has amazing powerful music for this powerful brilliant film from Thomas Newman and Jeff Coopwood and congrats to the casting by Mali Finn.
this film is a masterpiece film,but not near the Shawshank Redemption or the godfathers quality.so my final words about the green mile is see it over and over again and you will see how brilliant it is,but you will still think it is not in the top ten films ever made. If you have not seen this film, simply........see it!
