Still Excellent To This Day.

Rating: 10/10 (25 May 2015)

I've grown up with my parents talking about how great this movie is and finally I've got round to seeing it. It really is as brilliant as they say. It's moving, powerful, emotional, and brilliantly acted. I particularly loved Morgan Freeman's character. It had the same sort of tone as Forest Gump, and now I am a certified fan. Despite its age,it's still as amazing and excellent today as it was after its release. Very impressed and I'd definitely recommend it to everyone. The plot twists are also very enjoyable. When we see that a hole has been made through the prison wall, and we see the main character crawling through a sewage pipe to escape! Remarkable, moving, powerful stuff. I might just go and re-watch it now.
