Superb Film

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 1999)

I saw this movie while in Florida on vacation with my girlfriend. We really hadn't heard anything at the time about, and had no idea what to expect. Well, it's my favorite movie of the year probably. The movie is an emotional roller coaster with superb acting and decent cinematography in a not so cooperative environment (prison). Hanks, Duncan, & Sinise were all great. I am not a King reader, so I can not compare book to film as may do. Why even compare? I think this movie does all a movie is supposed to do. It moves you! Makes you think! Overall, I loved it!
