Simply a masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (27 September 2016)

This film delivers an emotional and soulful performance. The entire ensemble, big names and small, was so perfectly cast. The brilliant collaboration between director, writer, actors and even the music department is one for the history books. Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman's on screen chemistry is undeniable. The narration really captures the story and makes the audience feel like they're watching real life tragedy. The director's unique take on using a blue tinted lens really demonstrated the misery and dark tone of the plot. A very powerful "art imitating life" take on the corruption in the judicial systems. This film will go down in history as my favorite movie.
