Webster couldn't come up with the proper words

Rating: 10/10 (10 August 2002)

I am what you might call a movie fanatic. I have literally seen thousands of movies. I have a movie collection of over 1000 different movies. When asked, "what's my favorite movie?", I can think of a favorite movie in a category, a favorite movie by a particular actor, a favorite movie in a particular year, a favorite style of movie, and a favorite in practically anything else you can think of. However, there is only one movie that I felt it necessary to sign up for IMDb, there is only one movie that still sends chills up and down my spine when I watch it, there is only one movie that stands out among the rest, there is only one movie that leads the pack over the thousands of movies I watched in the last 9 or ten years, and there is only one movie that I can truly say is my favorite, number one movie of all time, and that movie is Shawshank Redemption. This is my first review and when you look up the top voted lists on IMDb and you see Shawshank Redemption in the top 3, you will know that I, too, was mesmerized by this movie. The only movie, in my opinion, that was ever worthy of a 10. Phillip
