Pros: Great job by all the actors Cons: length
One of the best ways to spend hard earned money, if you plan to spend it on movie, is to spend it on Frank Darabont's The Green Mile, it is a great piece of cinema, and well worth the price of the ticket, and your time (the movie runs somewhere in the...

Pros: It has a great story behind it. Cons: It's 3 hours long and makes your eyes water.
The Green Mile is just a sensational film. Stephen King has done it again. The way the movie goes is sort of the same way the Titanic started. It starts out about 60 years after what happened. Then a character starts telling what happened years...

Pros: Excellent characterizations, interesting plot developments, good cinematography Cons: special effects damage credibility
After seeing the Green Mile, I will admit that this was possibly the only movie ever to make me "misty-eyed". The main plot was extraordinary, as well as several sub plots, in which a lot of attention was given to properly describe each of the...

Pros: Excellent acting, great special effects, serious subject matter Cons: Too gruesome, definitely not a "feel good" movie
The death penalty is indeed a powerful subject. When I wanted to see this movie I really didn't know what it was about. I knew I love Tom Hanks, I knew that it was about a prison. That's it. I was not prepared for the
subject matter presented...

Pros: Great plot Cons: It was long
I recently went to the theater to see The Green Mile. Having not much of an idea what this movie was about I did not know what to expect. Once at the theater I found out that this movie is about 3 hours long and I was getting myself ready to have the...

Pros: Well thought out Cons: Maybe to long
I have always liked Tom Hanks in all of his Movies. And I liked this one,but it was just to long.I watched Saving Private Ryan,and it was to long But they were good and to the point I guess you have to tell the story and leave nothing unturned. I took my...

Pros: Good story Cons: could of done without the mean guard
If you like Tom Hanks this is a must see movie. Tom Hanks along with several other popular actor's put on an excellent display of life in a death row cell block. Keeping the inmates calm before put to death. This movie will make you laugh and cry, It is...

Pros: gives you a reality check Cons: realistically disturbing
The Green Mile was highly recomended by my friends and family. When I went to go see it I was completely for the death penalty. The movie takes place in a prison where all the inmates are on death row. In the beginning of the movie you think that the...

Pros: sensitive, emotional Cons: long not for most husbands
Stephen King is one of my favorite authors, and Tom Hanks, well what more could one ask for. I had read this book and of course wanted to see the movie. It is surprising how King can write a story about something like death row and make it so...

Pros: Developed plot, nice visual effects Cons: You need to be attentive and want to see the movie
It bothers me when the first thing that I hear from a friend is: "Well, it wasn't as good as the book." Who cares? The movie is a totally different form of telling the story. The two shouldn't be compared. That is why I went into "The...
