Review of The Shawshank Redemption (1994) by Movie1997 — 28 Apr 2013
Before, I never understood why this movie was #1 on the imdb top 250s list, but now I understand why. This movie was a beautifully crafted story on friendship, redemption and hope. The storyline was really well-crafted, and putting in these unforgettable characters made it even better.
From Red to Andy to Norton, they we're all just wonderful and enjoyable characters, especially Red and Andy. The relationship between those two is what really holds the balance of the movie. And putting in characters such as Warden Norton and Captain Hadley makes the story riveting and (in a sense) dark.
It's not like any other movie out there. Overall, it's a classic Stephen King story.
