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: 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: 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: 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: Tom Hanks, John Coffey Cons: none
There are very few movies that can get away with being three hours long. In most the plot ends way before the actual movie does. However The Green Mile will hold you in the arms of a delicious plot for the whole three hours. The story is one that will...

Pros: Movie has a great lead actor..Tom Hanks Cons: The length of the movie..over 3 hours
I saw this movie because I had read the book. I enjoy seeing how close to the book filmmakers can come. I enjoyed the book. The movie considering it had Tom Hanks playing the lead..was one I knew I had to see and was sure he would do a great job. If...

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: 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...

Pros: Great story all around! Cons: It's a cryer!
I've seen a few Stephen King movies, and most of them have good been, but The Green Mile is the best yet. I really had no idea what to expect, as I had not read the book before seeing the movie. But, I knew it had a good possiblity of perfection simply...

Pros: Great acting and story line Cons: A little long but still enjoyed
Let me put it short and simple because we don't have very much time these days and I don't want to waste your internet hours, so here goes. If you see one movie this year, it should be The Green Mile. It's heart-warming, good action scenes and the best...
