Absolutely the best movie I have seen in my lifetime. I'm a hardcore action fan, but I sat and watched this movie and never checked the time. This movie is compelling. Tim Robbins gives a great performance nonetheless, but it is Morgan Freeman's character that adds such emotion to the movie. I always catch the movie on TNT and I watch it to the end. The end is fantastic, and it leaves me with tingles (if you know what I mean). Morgan Freeman's line "Get busy living, or get busy dying..." is one to remember. He adds so much feeling to the movie, and the entire thing is flawless. There isn't a line or scene out of place in the entire thing. I sat there thinking hard about the movie for a while, but then I got up and headed to the nearest shop. That movie was going to be my own.
