Everything of an American story

Rating: 8/10 (8 October 2016)

It's quite a good movie, but far from the best movie of all time.
You won't lose your time watching it, but don't create big expectations about an revolutionary thing. The movie gets the best part that an American history movie have, with the characteristics that you may expect from one of this. It's the success, the break through, the plot twist and the great actors.
It's a good way to begin watching the top IMDb, easy to see.
Probably it's on the top 1 for natural organic votes through this years, despite not being all of this.
Take your family to watch with you, they will like it. Maybe even you friends and dates. But don't say to a Cinema lover that it's your top one. Maybe a way to discuss about life and society. Even about the culture of American cinematic history and how the blockbusters turned quickly from great plot movies to high amount of explosions and graphic effects, just made for selling tickets, not for art itself.
Shawnshaw Redemption gets points by being part of the last farm of American blockbusters with great plots and actors
