The Shawshank Redemption (1994) - (Movies To See Before You Die - Drama) |
Surprisingly it is one of the most appreciated movies all over the world, with love and emotions as its basic theme, but there is no female character in the movie. Quite unimaginable, but it’s true. The movie teaches you how to feel for others, how to keep on living in the toughest situations, how to love your life with all its sad moments and still….. it has no female character in the script. Directed by Frank Darabont (who later also gave us another masterpiece “The Green Mile”), this is a remarkable film with a brilliant script and performances.

It is a very good piece of cinema but I dont think that it deserves 9.2 on imdb. Movie is sometimes slow and lengthy.
Otherwise, its a good movie with a very nice subject matter and an outstanding script. But it doesnt deserve 9.2. What do you think about it?

Hi Vinayak, As I see it, there are two ways of seeing movies, first the technical aspect of waching it and second the way it can influence your own life and thinking patterns. So all the movies can be given two kind of rating according to this. Therefore its possible that you individually may find a particular movie - just Ok as per the movie, but as a life teaching lesson its might turn out to be just terrific. So, simply try to see the movies in these two ways....For instance in India, movies of Hrishikesh Mukherjee are the simplest in terms of cinematice achievements made in them......but as per the lessons of life in them they are above many other bigger HITS and near perfectly canned movies made till date. Cheers!

This movie is one of its own kind and one of the best i\'ve seen. But you missed to talk about its important message. "Hope!"
