Excellent movie, a must see!

Rating: 10/10 (4 September 2013)

The Shawshank Redemption is one of the best all-round movies of all time. The story is powerful in that it represents real issues in society, not petty ones that a lot of movies nowadays base their stories off of, that are usually unrealistic anyways. The characters are interesting and have strong character arcs, and the highs and lows are extreme highs and lows, there's not doubt you'll be moved by this story. And to top it all off the acting is well executed, believable, and entertaining. It raised the bar for movies for ever. If you haven't seen this movie yet I'd say it is a "must see movie" in my books. Do not hesitate to give it a couple hours of your time, you will not be disappointed.
