Rating: 10/10 (27 August 2004)

There are some movies that come along that truly make a difference in cinema and in peoples lives. In my opinion, this is one of those films.
***spoilers***
(minor)
The movie is about a man wrongfully accused of a crime. He is sentenced to life in prison. He ends up at Shawshank. A prison with a lot more going on than what shows on the outside.
There are quite a few things that make this film a masterpiece. One is the story and its qualities and values. Another is its amazing acting by all cast members in the film. The music was great and the cinematography is creative. I don't believe there's a flaw in this movie.
11/10 haha!
