Shawshank Redemption is a movie which has crept into my mind ever since I watched it. Some movies wither out of our memories days after we have watched it. But this movie has remained fresh in my mind and all the scenes pass through my mind very clearly. Based on a true story, a viewer can't predict the direction in which the movie goes. The small nuances that the movie contains is worthwhile as these nuances will later take the movie to a different level. A rhythmic movie right from the start changes its gears at the last one hour which provides an awesome experience for a movie lover. It has every element that a viewer expects in a movie.
Green Mile is a supernatural crime drama plot. Why I think that Shawshank Redemption is better than Green Mile is that the story of the latter movie is quite predictable. John Coffey is on a death row and has supernatural powers. He is tried for a crime that he hasn't committed. He finds that ''Wild Bill'' Wharton is responsible for the crime for which John is on a death row. He takes back the sickness in Hal's wife and passes intro Percy, who is then unable to talk and shoots down ''Wild Bill". Having seen all these I expected a bit of twist at the tail but the movie finishes in a haste at the end. Tom Hanks once again gave a splendid performance. The plot didn't had that suspense as the former movie had. Rising from the unexpected took the former to a higher state.
