Movies are meant to entertain. Most of the times, they even fail to do that. In this era, dominated by Computer Generated Imagery (CGI), most movies project an alternative reality, a getaway from our dry world. In such manner, it is fun to watch and even very entertaining.
Only might bring up The Dark Knight, which is also a truly great movie, in such conversations but in the end it is futile.
The Shawshank redemption is a class of movies, which until now has only got itself in it. This movies forces us to question ourselves. Through these movies, we live someone's else life and understand it.
It is entertaining as hell not cause of the imagery or the camera work or the some cool gadgets rather cause it strips down the beautiful human nature and portrays the intricate feelings in a form so powerful that it may be more of a reality than this life is.
Every time you watch this movie, you learn about yourself. You grow. You believe.
With lots of awe admiration and respect, A Shawshank Redemption Fan
