I'm so glad a site has this near the top

Rating: 10/10 (27 January 2003)

This is by far my favorite film, if not the best ever made. The direction and acting is beyond description, to the point where it could have been a silent film and we still would have known what was going on. A most triumphant start to a career for Frank Darabont, who has taken Stephen King's novella of about a hundred pages and made it into a masterpiece. It's about time a website ranked this movie towards its top, because that's exactly where it deserves to be. 10/10.
