John The Shawshank Redemption is my favorite movie. Nothing better than watching this classic film on the big screen. Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins are at their best. The music of Thomas Newman is remarkable in the theater. An amazing movie experience! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/21/24 Full Review Jonathan L One of the greatest movies of all time it was tremendous to see it on the big screen as it was meant to be seen, as an electric roller coaster ride. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/21/24 Full Review Dave O. A classic, and still utterly enjoyable with every rewatch. This and Stand By Me may be the two best Stephen King adaptations and that neither is in the horror genre that Mr King is known for. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Rabab M I really enjoyed this movie. I appreciated the frequent use of ELS (Extreme Long Shots) that emphasized the scale of the prison and the feeling of isolation, which made Andy’s perseverance even more inspiring. I also loved how the director used dolly shots during Andy’s walk through the prison yard, giving the audience a sense of motion and freedom in contrast to the rigidity of the setting. The over-the-shoulder shots during conversations between Andy and Red made their friendship feel more real and personal. Overall, I would rate this film 5 stars for its beautiful visuals and storytelling. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Fareed U Why Shawshank Redemption is my most favorite movie of all times? It was in 2017, I was watching movies randomly, this movie poped up in my list, firstly I couldn't even pronounce the name and left it many times, one day I had to watch a movie and I had no other option but to watch this masterpiece, initially it looked boring but something in my mind said that it's going to be interesting, as the movie went on and towards the end it gave me goosebumps, I liked the movie so much that I started googling various facts about this movie and then I knew about IMDb rating, then I came to know it's top rated movie and my emotions were right on the spot. It's a masterpiece of one and only kind. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/04/25 Full Review Tyler S Of every movie I have watched, this might have been the most simple yet perfect movie. Not sure how they did it, but they took the most simple concept and made it mesmerizing and impactful. I was so intrigued the whole time. Well well done!
