Rating: 9/10 (7 November 2014)

The Shawshank Redemption is a movie involving story about life in prison that represents through crimes, bribery, sexual harassment, and drama. This movie was simple but it delivers meaningful messages in all characters' performance especially in the scene when their eyes contact. This film contains emotional impact about true friendship and hope. Brief the plot: Andy, a successful banker, was accused of murdering his wife and her affair. He was sentenced to Shawshank Prison for that. Later in prison, Andy helped one of the prison guards to evade taxes. In return, the prison guard gave Andy and Red, his best friend in Prison, some cold beer. From this cause, Andy became a popular guy in the prison and made a lot of friends. After several years of slowly piercing through the wall using some kind of art equipment, Andy finally broke out of prison. A couple of years later, Red was released out of Shawshank Prison. He came to meet Andy at the beach that Andy told him to meet up when he get released. The highlight of this movie is when Andy used his specialty in evading taxes to make the wardens trust him. The biggest surprise for me is when Andy asked the warden for rope, most of the people who watch will predict that he will commit suicide but the truth is, he used to it tight things up and escape from the prison. In conclusion, the acting in this movie is very good, the storytelling is amazing, exciting and brilliant, and production is quite simply. This movie is very amazing because it teaches me that people must always have hope to move on in their life.
