Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

This is the 200th review I have written, and I wanted to review a classic that is one of my favorite movies! The Green Mile, based on a series of novellas by Stephen King, is about a prison guard who runs a death row. He befriends an inmate, who has the power to heal by kissing someone and touching what needs healing. This is one of the most powerfully emotional movies I have ever seen-and it's one of the few that actually make me cry. (If you don't cry at the end you have no soul!) This is also written and directed by the writer/director of The Shawshank Redemption-another Stephen King adaptation. Both of these films were Best Picture nominees as well. This lost to American Beauty, and this earned it so much more!(It's rated 1% higher on this website!) Such an emotionally powerful movie this is! Very highly recommended!

Its hard to get much better than this! Take everything that you knew about prison movies and throw it out of the window. Prepare to be entertained and left with mixed emotions.

Simply brilliant! A very different Stephen King film, and very special indeed! The film touches you on so many levels. It is both funny and dramatic, and simply spellbinding. Although it has a long running time, the film is never boring. With an exceptional cast, special mention must go to Doug Hutchison. He is fantastic! You can't help hating him with a passion, and then rejoices when the dog gets his day! Michael Clarke Duncan is also an absolute delight!
