I found this to be one of the best films of all time.

Rating: 10/10 (30 June 2000)

Being a Stephen King fan, I have been mostly disappointed in the movies made from his works. ("Stand By Me" & "The Shawshank Redemption" being exceptions). I was not sure if "The Green Mile" would be worth watching, but after seeing so many rave reviews on IMDB, I decided to rent it. I am sure glad that I did, as this film is truly outstanding! Every one of the supporting characters did super jobs in representing the feelings and emotions created by the King novel. At just over three hours in length, it is a bit long for some people's taste, but I found that not to be a problem, as I was being entertained for the entire time. The movie contains some fairly graphic violence, but it is contained within the framework of the plot, and seemed to me to be a necessary element. The musical score was very well done, the filming was outstanding, the plot was faithful to the source material, the acting was great, and this movie had warmth, humor, style, and a well intentioned moral message. What's not to like? I give it a resounding 10 out of 10!
