Great Drama

Rating: Null/10 (14 June 2000)

Frank Darabot and Stephen King joins again after making "Shawshank Redemption" which was a hands down masterpiece (even though it didn't win best pic which it deserved, not FORREST GUMP!!!) but that's beside the point. Anyway...
First of all, great cast, of actors who all did awesome jobs. Frank Darabot seems to work magically with actors in his films.(even though he only has done two, but it's still all good) His actors never seems to be confused of what they are playing and they seem totally absorbed. Great pace of the film. I like films where it's not just cut and cut and cut and next scene. I personally like films where I have a time to just absorb what just happened and what's on the screen at the moment. The film seemed to be a little long, but I was absorbed in the film most of the time.
If there's a flaw I'm going to say that its flaw was in the content generally. Why am I saying this? Because I could not figure out what was necessarily a flaw in that film. It was a good film, as a matter of fact, a GREAT one. But, it could somehow have been better. Somehow. Because there are better movies than THE GREEN MILE. And if there are better movies than one movie, that means that you can somehow make it better by changing it around a little bit. How? I don't know. But you can make it SOMEHOW better. Am I saying this was just an OK movie? NO. But I'm saying that there are better movies. THAT is all I'm saying. Anyway....
All right, enough blabbing. Want my opinion on this movie in one sentence? It was a GREAT FILM. Go watch it. **** out of ****
