At this point the movie begins to be ridiculous. Judd s acting is better than Jones, but not by much. Oh well, it will keep your attention for awhile anyway. If Tom Hanks is in a movie, you know it has to be a great success. This one is no different.
Hanks plays the head prison guard on death row.
He has a soothing manner about him which definitely makes a difference on the day a prisoner is to be executed. One day a new prisoner, Michael Clarke Duncan, arrives which changes everyone s life. The fact that he is the biggest man anyone has ever seen puts a real scare into everyone. Within minutes they realize just how gentle he really is. His performance is truly wonderful.
