Superb acting, touching story

Rating: 9/10 (6 February 2001)

This movie is 3-hour long, but I don't feel any regret seeing it. The 3 hours was truly watchable. This movie tells about the relationships between Death Rows guards and prisoners. The movie conveys a look at prisoners who are going to be executed in electric chair, and how they view their coming death. Tom Hanks was superb in this movie (Is there anything that this man can't do? )Michael Clarke Duncan also acts superbly as a prisoner who is innocent and has miracle power. I cried when I was watching this movie, because I pity him too much! The movie might seems heavy to some and adults might appreciate this movie more than children.
