Pros: Heart warming, Godly and excellent morallity Cons: A bit fictional
The Green Mile, one of this year's top movies so far is a must see. Tom Hanks and his extremely inspiring role for others is the lead in this movie, and he plays a prison guard for the block called the Green Mile. Everyday people come in for a few...

Pros: Amazingly well written script Cons: Minor set back:three hour film
In truth we do not go to see a movie, to watch the characters on
screen overcome obstacles, be amazed by miracles , or be afraid. We as
an audience go to experience these emotions ourselves. In the space of
two hours, or so...

Pros: Acting was incredible Cons: Black stereotyping
I love Tom Hanks, so I knew it would be good. But I never knew it would be that good. I loved it. I am a tough guy, and it brought a tear to my eye. What a movie for humanity....this is a sad movie, but a feel-good. Makes you want to run right out...

Pros: Immsersive, Great acting, Good trailers Cons: A bit long
Hearing rumors that this movie was to be an award winner, and seeing a very well-rounded cast, my husband and I decided to "visit" the Green Mile for nearly 3 hours.
Indeed, it was a visit. The actors, and simple set designs...

Pros: Spiritual with a depth far beyond 'Touched by an Angel' Cons: I found no Cons.
Finally a Stephen King masterpiece that is capably converted to the big screen. And what a great conversion it is.
In our politically correct and cynical society, King's story points out symbolically some flaws in our criminal justice system...

Pros: everything Cons: nothing
I only can say positive things about this movie. It one of the most touching movies i've seen in a really long time. Its about a guy who gets falsely accused for a murder he didnt commit. He was accused since he was found at the scene, when all he was...

Pros: Excellent cast, adaptation, inspiring Cons: Movies this good only come along once so often
A movie, excuse me, let's be proper here, a motion picture, has really only one job. A motion picture should entertain. If it can do just that, then it is worth the price of admission and the time you spent watching it. But if a movie can make you...

Pros: Action, thriller, sad and HAPPY all together in one movie!! Cons: I didn't watch it sooner. I haven't met the actors in real life. I didn't become an actress.
I waited for a long time to finally watch this movie. I read part of the book, people told me about it. When I finally saw it, I ranked it the highest as a movie-to-watch-a-billion-times. Jon Coffe (Character name forgot his real name oooops! lol) was an...

Pros: great all around Cons: n/a
I have to say that I read the series of the books that Stephen King wrote, and I was disapointed when I saw that they were making a movie out of that series. I feel like that the screenplays of movies do not give King the credit he deserves for being...

Pros: great film by a great filmmaker, Frank Darabont Cons: none at all that I know of
When I first heard about this movie I had no interest in seeing it, I figured, another prison movie, how could it be any different than all the others.
Was I ever surprised. I absolutely loved this movie, it is now one of my favorites. I even went...

Pros: It is well written and the actors bring it to life so well Cons: it starts out slow
Listen. If you want to see a movie that will make you think about a lot of things that happen in this world and has a lot of emotions in it, then you have to see a GREEN MILE. It is fantastic story written by the master horror author Stephen King.

Pros: Made you think about miracles and that looks can be deceiving. Cons: None
This was an excellent movie. The characters were well thought out and the plot kept me on the edge of my seat. Tom Hanks does an excellent job in his role as the head guard. The man who plays Coffee gave an outstanding charisma to his character. I...

Pros: The cast, the writer, the story Cons: My inability to write a better review of this one.
Tom Hanks/Stephen King!! Enough said about why I saw this movie. AND everyone claimed it was a MUST SEE. I have to agree.
I want to warn anyone who hasn't already viewed this film to bring along some soft tissue's cause it will pull at the...
