Don't watch this movie...

Rating: 10/10 (11 December 2011)

Yes. No need to watch this movie, instead just play it on DVD, close your eyes and just listen to Morgan Freeman's narration of a prison Life, Hope, Friendship and the days in Shawshank.
Every important move in this movie is described by Morgan and his voice is such a plus that it lift the movie to next level.
In a scene, where the entrance of the prison tower was shown in the top angle, it shows the world in to which the prisoners are entering. It is a sample scene where the director relied on cameraman to convey the message instead of 10 line dialog.
Everyone expects Morgan and Tim to become friends after all both of them are big actors. It is predictable. But the way the friendship develops is truly amazing screenplay.
Many sub-plots, people with different attitude were shown in the movie. Not all of them are good people. But most of the characters are in transformation phase where they repent for their mistakes.
Poetic scene ? Many scenes are there. But the one in which Morgan, Tim and others drink beer at the top of the roof of one of the building and the way Morgan narrates the scene.. Amazing...
It contains a twist which is a ingredient for any thriller movie. Yet that brilliant scene is so subtle that everyone appreciate.
Will there be any other movie in our life time where it can be simple yet be so powerful and heart touching ?. Doubt we will see such a movie soon.
As many said before, don't rent it.. instead buy this movie and keep it safe for next generation to see this movie..
Hats off to Morgan, Tim and everyone who acted in this master piece...
