The movie, based on a series of novelettes by Stephen King, is as flawless an adaptation of a printed work as I've ever seen. It has it all: great cast, great story, and some truly riveting moments. It also clocks in at a whopping three hours. | |

The casting is great. It is about an innocent man on death row and what it would be like in the day to day activities and interaction of the guards and prisoners. Well worth adding to your collection. | |

Tom Hanks was a fantastic actor in the movie as was Michael Clarke Duncan. It is a movie that you watch and turn around and watch again and see items you missed the first time. Great movie!!! Two thumbs up | |

After reading the book by Stephen King, I couldn't imagine how they could make it into a movie and do the book justice. I just love Tom Hanks movies. He has shown that he can portray any type of role and do a terrific job, everytime (not counting Joe Verses The Valcano). I try to buy every movie that he stars in, because for the past decade and longer, he doesn't take a script that he doesn't believe in, totally. There is no way that I can predict how many times that I'll watch the DVD, but undoubtedly at least double figures. | |

Everyone of the critics thought that Stephen King would bomb using this long forgotten writing technique. Little did they know. Not only were the books a #1 hit, the movie that followed literally blew everyone away! This is definitely a real tear-jerker of a movie - I give it *4 Hankies* in that department! With its all-star cast and Mr. Jingles, the mouse...what can I say? I never tire of watching this movie and that is why I had to buy it. I recommend it to everyone - especial Tom Hanks fans! :) | |
