Leave your thoughts about The Shawshank Redemption.
| Time OutDerek Adams...a throwback to the kind of serious, literate drama Hollywood used to make. |
| CinemaBlendRafe TelschOne of the few movies that has come out in my lifetime that I consider a "classic film". |
| JoBlo's Movie EmporiumJoBloAn amazing movie. Easily one of the best movies made during the 90s and definitely one of the top 'prison' movies of all-time. Pretty much everything about this movie works and works extremely well! |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...has certainly earned its reputation as one of the most effective prison movies in cinematic history... |
| Urban CinefileLouise KellerI love this film. It's a story about hope and dreams and one whose emotional impact is as great as the Pacific Ocean is blue. |
| TIME MagazineRichard SchickelFreeman, who is simply a great actor, a man who has never struck a false note in his career, both narrates this tale and anchors it with his authoritative playing. |
| ReelTalk Movie ReviewsBetty Jo TuckerTop-notch performances, exceptional cinematography, and masterful direction combine to make this film something special indeed. |
| EmpireIan NathanA thumpingly good ode to friendship, hope, wit, wiles and wisdom, brimming with crackling characters and topped with the most twisteroo of twists since "The Crying Game." |
| Chicago TribuneGene SiskelThis is simply marvelous entertainment that breathes life into a genre that I thought had been dead for a decade-the prison picture. |
| BBC.comNev PierceFreeman, in particular, is exceptional. His performance is so unshowy it can easily go unnoticed, but it's the soul of Shawshank. |
