The Shawshank Redemption is one of the best films I ever seen.

Rating: 8/10 (10 December 2013)

The Shawshank Redemption is one of the best films I ever watched. I normally do not like watching films about prisons. However, This film changed my opinion. It was boring and a usual prison based movie at the very beginning. It keeps you watching as you watching. I would recommend to keep watching the whole movie in order to understand fully.
I would in fact recommend you to watch for several times. As you watch again you see different things.
It has a great storyline. The pace of the film changes. Cast are nicely chosen. And actors act very well. It has an adventurous story. Although most of the film is about prison life, it surprises the audience by freedom at the end.
Costumes were chosen nicely as well. I felt time travelling through watching the film. I do not know if I needed to comment on this too. However, when ever I watch a film I watch in detail.
Performance, costume, location, reality, story, picture and sound quality are very important for me. I can tell you I have seen good quality in most of the above mentioned aspects.
