The Shawshank Redemption {1994)

Tag Line: Fear Can Hold You Prisoner, Hope Can Set You Free

Director : Frank Darabont. Cast : Tim Robbins, Morgan Freeman.

This movie is considered to be one of the best movies ever made. Unfortunately, this movie was released in 1994, a year dominated by

1. Forrest Gump

"A 6 Oscar Winner Romantic-Drama directed by 'Robert Jemeckis' starring one of the finest actors ever,'Tom Hanks' who undoubtedly deserved the Oscar. This film still stands in the list of top 50 Highest Grossing Movies with over $650million worldwide gross....

* This is my all time favorite, i must say, being a big fan of Tom Hanks :D " -----------

2. Pulp Fiction

"An Independent Crime-Drama directed by one of the best Screenplay/Script Writer, Quentin Tarantino who got Oscar in the Best Original Screenplay category.

* I still cant see much innovative screenplay than this flick." -----------

3. The Lion King

"An Animated feature film by Disney Pictures, a major financial success with gross revenue of over $750million and stands as the Highest Grossing 2D animation film of all-time." -----------

Due to the heavy financial success of the above three flicks, our topic, The Shawshank Redemption[1994] was unnoticed on its release and became a huge financial disaster. But gained good 'Reviews'(for which a lot of viewers don't care for}. The film gained 7 Oscar/Academy Nominations, but hasn't one any.

* This movie is Undoubtedly 'The Greatest Movie' to have not won an Oscar.

* I cant say that, this is my most favorite, but definitely is one of my Top Favorites.

* I think that this movie deserved 2 Oscars, one for The Best Picture of 1994 and another for Best Director.

PS : If you cant understand this note or you think that this is just some sh*t, just try and watch the movie once. Then, you'll definitely agree with me. :)

Well, for obvious reasons, this movie gets very good ratings and a highly positive review...... This is undoubtedly the best of E.V.V...... but the maximum credit for the success of the movie goes to Rajendra Prasad..... His performance as Atukula Chitti Babu stands as a role model for all those comedy heroes of Telugu industry...... and Rao Gopal Rao as Royyala Naidu excelled the character as the owner of a rich fishing factory...... two and a half hours of absolute entertainment......

an absolute 10 out of 10 for this movie........

I strongly recommend everyone to watch this movie at least once..... and I'm sure you cant really stop at one.........

Definitely a big disappointment for those who waited for it..... it is a disastrous piece of film making....... the film was so boring and so dull...... i almost slept for a good one hour...... the director had no proper control on the film... the film seems to start off very well..... it gets weak as the film progresses especially by the end..... the second half was completely spoiled....

Definitely one of the biggest flops in Telugu film industry..... and i strictly recommend not to watch this one even if you are paid back money for doing so..... you will definitely regret for wasting your precious time on this one......!!!!
