Acting 9/10: Everyone did well acting but Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman really carried the movie. I especially enjoyed the narration in this movie by Morgan Freeman. Tim Robbins probably had a better performance in this movie over any other movie he has been in. I did really enjoy the chemistry between Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins. Especially the "Get busy living or get busy dying" scene.
Overall Rating: 10/10
Would I recommend it? It has a very well written ending if you do enjoy plot twists. Without a doubt watch it you won't regret it. It is after all in the discussion for greatest movie of all time.
