finally watched this movie the other day for the first time in my life.
>one of the best movies ever made
so they say. im not impressed at all. in fact, this movie was shit.
the shawshank prison wasnt even that scary of a place and didnt feel like it was full of convicted murderers at all.
i think the biggest problem the movie has is that there is no one to root for, or it is unclear who to root for. it is not really revealed whether or not main character killed his wife. he clearly has a meticulous mastermind personality type and one would expect he could be capable of anything. i spent the whole movie questioning his motives and wondering whether he was a good person or not. and by the end i still couldnt tell. actually i think he fucking killed his wife by the end. he says he didnt but he is clearly capable of lying to another mans face when he claims to be this guy that he made up. and that other guys story could have been bullshit or even a coincidence.
the movie's message is also shit and it is clearly written by an athiest or a jew. the movie teaches that trickery, mischief, deceit, and contraband is the path to "redemption".
the movie teaches that if you are annoying enough and you write two letters a day to your senator bitching and moaning about stupid pointless shit no one cares about but you, you'll eventually get your way at the taxpayers expense. to boot, the bad guy is the man of god, and the bible is good for nothing except hiding your pick hammer. the whole movie just feels like leftist propaganda.
i give it a 2/10.
what is /tv/ opinion on this film? also shawshank memes thread. are there any shawshank memes?
