<p dir="auto">Shawsank is a great movie but as a whole i really think The green mile is the better movie.<br />
I dont usually get teary after watching a movie but some have and the green mile really hit home with the emotions for me no other movie have made me feel so much for a person as i had for john coffey.<br />
Still shawshank is a great movie but at least for me its the second best movie frank did.</p>

<p dir="auto">I should care about the opinion of a doofus who doesn't know the difference between "then" and "than" why, exactly?<br />
There are 8.2 billion people in the world. 8.19 billion of them have never heard of and don't give a fuck about Charlie Kirk. Get over it.</p>

<p dir="auto">I like but don’t love Shawshank,  a beautifully shot movie, a;ways engaging, with a great performance by Morgan Freeman (and a rather dull one no Tim Robbins) which patches together just about every cliche from earlier, sometimes but not always better prison movies.<br />
I pretty much loathed The Green Mile, so I disagree strongly with the OP.</p>

<p dir="auto">People are eager to share the thoughts of the majority when it's in accordance with their own but quick to dismiss them as irrelevant when they say different, it's not a good practice.<br />
Roger Ebert is no better than any other critic just more of a household name his opinion is worth no more than mine neither is anyone who votes on IMDB, also consider the green mile is much more depressing in people's minds which could effect how they feel about it negatively a little bit when compared to a movie that makes them "feel good" like SR.<br />
Also Shawshank came out first and people LOVED it and heard the same guy was now doing another movie and a Stephen King book no less and starring Tom Hanks at the height of his popularity and even Tomas Newman returning for the score, hype would have preceded the release people came in with great exceptions now realising the potential of this team, this good never be a favourable circumstance over Shawshank which caught many people without warning and no hype at all, which as we all know is a much better way to go into a flim.<br />
Is there even such thing as objectively good art? that alone is highly debatable but one thing isn't that whatever the majority says is not a mark of quality just popularity which has many elements (like the two above) which affects it that are unrelated to quality.<br />
Everyone I know who has seen both movies likes the green mile more and some of them by a very large margin (myself included) does that mean, it's therefore better? no, not at all but personally the first 2 maybe 3 times I seen Shawshank I was bored to tears but then it did grow on me and now I like it but don't love it.</p>

<p dir="auto">The Green Mile<br />
is a good film, but<br />
The Shawshank Redemption<br />
is better imho! And both<br />
the people and the critics<br />
agree with me:<br />
The Shawshank Redemption<br />
9.3 on IMDb  and  **** from Roger Ebert<br />
The Green Mile<br />
8.6 in IMDb  and  ***1/2 from Roger Ebert<br />
