"Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane."

Date of Review:  Oct 14, 2008
The Bottom Line: Although there are many good adaptations of Stephen King's literary works out there, The Shawshank Redemption is among the best.
Review: One of the few good things about television and the home video business is that, on occasion, a box-office "flop" that is simply a good movie that didn't find a receptive audience in theatrical release can still make a comeback thanks to repeated...

Am I being obtuse??

Date of Review:  Jun 30, 2001
The Bottom Line: This is a movie I watch again and again, especially now that I have it on DVD. A "must see" movie!
Review: What a great movie. I must say, I am partial to prison movies (Escape From Alcatraz is one of my favorites). This movie was based on a Stephen King story. As we all know, Stephen King makes great horror stories. But when he writes non-horror...

Rejoice a decent Stephen King movie

Date of Review:  Sep 29, 2001
The Bottom Line: Watch it for the rarity of a good Stephen King adaptation
Review: With a recent showing again on tv last week, I watched the film again for maybe the third time to see if I could work out why it has become such a classic in the eyes of so many people. I am a fan of King but so many of his books have been made into...

One of a kind

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 1999
Review: Have you ever been sitting around the house, bored with what is on T.V. and just wanted to watch a good movie. Well "The Shawshank Redemption" fills the bill nicely. I saw this in the movie theater and after I left I knew that I would buy it when it...

Stop what you're doing and watch

Date of Review:  Jul 20, 2001
The Bottom Line: Watch it in a house or with a mouse. Watch it everywhere or in your underwear.
Review: I remember back in the early 90's when the Shawshank Redemption came out. I was a mere youngin' so I wasn't allowed to watch it. A couple years later I was taking a gander through the Blockbuster selection and I saw the movie just sitting there,...

An unfortunate name

Date of Review:  Dec 11, 1999
Review: I am ashamed to admit that I saw this movie for the first time last weekend. The reason for this is obviously the name. Its name is also the reason for its unbelievably low box office draws. This is proof that you can't judge a movie by its title...

I'm addicted

Date of Review:  Feb 6, 2000
Review: This movie is narrated by Morgan Freeman, who plays "Red" in this movie!
Tim Robbins was perfectly cast as "Andy.

I think that Morgan Freeman's narration (which takes on an aura of its own) of this movie was the major factor that I...

Shawshank Redemption: A Well-Deserved Requital

Date of Review:  Aug 15, 2002
The Bottom Line: I just had to weigh in on this film.
Review: The film Shawshank Redemption is not in desperate need of my praise as there are certainly hundreds of jubilant reviews to take the place of this one. But, because this is one of my favorites and it is the movie that inspired me to explore the...

First Class

Date of Review:  May 27, 2000
Review: Stephen King's "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption" has been brought to life, in an extended movie format. It entails a young businessman who is sentenced to life in prison for a crime he didn't commit. However, his spirit cannot be broken,...

"Some birds were never meant to be caged"

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2001
The Bottom Line: A majestic, moving ode to the indomitable human spirit.
Review: For most of us the future stretches as far as the eye can see, peppered with kaleidoscopic visions which provide us, in our lowest moments, with a reason to believe. So it is that we draw our plans, visualise our dreams, and ignore the bitter voice...
