Robbins and Freeman

Rating: 9/10 (12 May 2014)

Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman, in the same movie.
Does one need to say more?
Morgan Freeman leads this all star cast on and interesting journey of the 1930's to 1950's prison system.
The story has been told is such a way that you feel as if you are actually there to see the events take place.
There are tears of joy and laughter, tears of sadness at the injustice.
This is a movie that requires some patience but have no fear if you pay attention the twists and turns will be plain to see.
Tim Robbins is magnificent as a jilted husband who is wrongly accused of his wife's murder.
Morgan Freeman is there a movie in which this man doesn't do well in? He is brilliant as an old con who is in Shawshank for murder.
Overall this is a brilliant movie and delivers on all counts.
