"I hope..."

Rating: 10/10 (16 October 2000)

...that if you've never seen this movie, that you'll take the time to watch.
Even if it's from the beginning, the middle or the last 20 minutes. I watch this movie when it's on TV. Morgan Freeman is one of the finest actors in America, and his portrayal of Red's journey of friendship and to freedom is touching. His words, "get busy living or get busy dying," never fail to hit home. It's just a good story that Frank Darabont turned into an excellent movie. The performances are all good - Freeman deserved an Oscar. Absolutely one of the best movies ever.
