Review of The Shawshank Redemption (1994) by Vanessa T — 01 Oct 2017

I watched this movie knowing it was and is considered the greatest movie of all time. I didnt know anything going in. What I got up to was truly the greatest movie of all time which after first watch became my favorite movie.

Being one of if not the best written, directed, acted and filmed movie of all time. I couldnt help but smile throughout the whole movie. In the beginning you think you know exactly what will happen. But then the movie goes in so many different direction.

leaving unsure. It doesn't shock you in any way but you did expect it but you do not know what happens. You expect it enough for it to not be shocking. But you are unsure enough for it to hit you on an emotional level.

Having been able to find flaws in many classics. This is the only movie where I feel like it is 100% perfect. Nothing feels off. There is no flaw that I can find at all. And even if you nitpick then it can still easily be argued against.

Everything in this movie is either perfect or better than perfect. Nothing in this movie could have been done better. being 100% perfect The Shawshank Redemption truly is the greatest movie of all time.
