Hypnotic

Rating: 10/10 (14 October 2014)

Every movie I have ever watched more than once - and i have watched a lot - has at least one scene that i would either skip or use to go grab something from the fridge, turn up/down the AC or something. Except The Shawshank Redemption. From the opening scene till the very end, i want to do nothing but sit through and watch, feel and react to each part of the story.
Everything in the film fits together in an amazing harmony, engaging all your senses and emotions from the very beginning. This is my humble opinion, and I am not surprised to see it on the top of so many lists.
A true example and a benchmark to many film makers, from story to acting, cinematography to editing.
