some things are better left unsaid, but i can't hold it on

Rating: 7/10 (18 January 2011)

The Shawshank Redemption is a beautiful film with a perfect cast and a wise plot. It had its good times, had entertainment and lead us to some reflections about life. Sadly it had some predictable conversations and seemed to be just another Morgan Freeman's movie. It dares to almost offend our intelligence the fact that the prison officers didn't check that poster carefully one single time in twenty years. And I have two questions: was the American justice that weak back in 1994? Were the condemned all smart and good people as this movie portrayed?
If it deserves to be at 1st spot here? Maybe. If it became one of my favorite movies? No, just a good watch.
