The Shawshank Redemption

I think this is one of the BEST movies ever. I had to have seen it over 10 times and everytime i still get chills during the quotes at the end of the movie. Its just amazing.

I love the movie but its always on tv.

Kinda like TBS showing The Beastmaster in the early-mid 90's like every freakin day.

I watched this movie on a "there's nothing else on" notion.

Didn't have a clue what it was about - ended up thinking it was one of the coolest films I had ever seen.

Yes 'The Shawshank Redemption' has to be one of my favorite movies. I have also studied it in English. And it's disappointing that it gets over-played on TV.

I have noticed the DVD is always a lot more expensive than other DVDs. Although the current DVD should go down in price as I think a new special edition DVD version is coming out soon.

I feel it's very overrated but still very good, i kind of perfer " The Green Mile" over Shawshank any time even though i wanna get the 2-Disc Shawshank DVD.

The movie wasn't suppose to be an academy award nominee OK, it's suppose to be a CULT movie ok like the Rocky Horror Picture Show, end of story.

SHAWSHANK is a great film...but why the makers couldn't leave the original Stephen King novella title RITA HAYWARD AND THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION smacks of underestimating the audience's IQ... miffed

I got mine for four pounds. But yes, obviously the ten year anniversary edition will be more expensive!

The film keeps the book's line where Red says, "maybe it's because I'm Irish," despite the fact that Morgan Freeman is playing him! big grin
