Pros: Excellent Story, plot actors. Cons: The floor in the theatre was a little sticky.
There is not a long enough page to express in words the excellence of this movie. It is truly one of the best movies of the 1999/2000 year. I felt a little strange going to a Stephen King movie because all of his stuff has been sort of, of the wall,...

Pros: Time and money well spent Cons: none
I saw this movie because my boyfriends mom asked me to. I really didn't think it would be my type of movie. Boy was I wrong. From the beginning I was really into the story. The performances by everyone was outstanding. There were twists and turns that...

Pros: Grips you and Glues you to your seat Cons: Cry way to much
My husband and I went with another couple to see this movie last night. Of course, one of our all time favorites is Shawshank Redemption, so we knew that this prison movie would probably be a great one too, and we weren't disappointed.
As...

Pros: superb story telling Cons: none
Before the Oscar "hoopla", and all those award shows bombarding us through their respective film nominations with "THIS IS THE ONE YOU SHOULD SEE!" I decided to go on with my own personal review and went to watch every nominated film...

Pros: wonderful movie, great acting, great story. Cons: might be too long for some people
The "Green Mile" is an excellent movie and I highly recommend it. It kept me intrigued; it made me laugh, made me cry, and made me re-think about life as it truly is. This movie touches on all emotions and kept my interest throughout. ...

Pros: exceptionally well written and played out Cons: Leaves you wanting more
I am a huge Stephen King Fan so when the Green Mile came out I knew I had to see it usually I have already read the book before I see the movie but in this case I hadn't gotten around to it and I am so glad this movie is one of the best that I've seen in...

Pros: Great story Cons: Gory death scenes
My teenage son saw this first and told me it was one of the BEST movies he'd ever seen. Needless to say this got my curiosity up as it takes A LOT to impress him! :-)
Anyway, my parents (60's) and I went to see it and thought it was...

Pros: excellent acting, great story Cons: long
I have been an avid Stephen King reader for years. To my disappointment few of the movie adaptations have lived up to the book. In fact Stand By Me from the short novel The Body was the one and only movie version that I believe lived up to its story....

Pros: Interesting study in what makes bad art Cons: Weak plot, half dimensional characters
I would not be surprised if some mediocre movie executive in LA LA land is planning a sequel to the "The Green Mile" tentatively titled "The Blue lap" in which death row inmates arrive at their hapless prison quarters by swimming a...

Pros: Wonderful story, great casting, stays true to the original story. Cons: This movie is about 3 hours long!
As an avid reader of Kings books, I often watch the movie adaptations with dread because so few movies come close to the story line of the book. This movie was an exception. This movie sticks as close to the story line of the book as it possibly...

Pros: great plot, excellent acting,funny,sad Cons: none
I will start out by telling you that this movie is not at all what I expected it would be. I thought it was a movie about the wrongly accused on Death Row. That would be an example of the biggest understatement of the year. I was in no hurry to see...

Pros: Great Acting Cons: 3 Hours Long
"The Green Mile" will have excellent chances at the Oscars because "Th Shawshank redemption" was over-looked at the Oscars in 1994. But it isn't as good as "The Shawshank redemption" probably because it isn't realistic at...

Pros: Great Cons: LONG
The setting of the movie, The Green Mile, is a Southern prison in 1935. The movie takes you to death row, where Paul Edgecomb, a kind and decent man played predictably by Tom Hanks, is the head guard. (The story is told in flashback as Hanks' character,...
