The final walk of a man on death row is called the 'Mile', in Paul Edgecomb's (Hanks) prison; the floor is a light green so it is known as the Green Mile. Having to deal with violent criminals comes as no great hardship to Paul and his team of prison guards, until the day a giant of a man, accused of killing two young girls, called John Coffey (Clarke Duncan) the sent into A-block. What transpires after that will change Paul's life forever.
Frank Darabont returns to a Steven King inspired prison drama for this emotional feel good movie that will bring a genuine tear to your eye. As he did with his last film "The Shawshank Redemption", Darabont proves that he is the consummate storyteller. At 3 hours 9 minutes, this film pulls you in and captivates you, making the time fly by. Wonderful performances by the cast, especially Michael Clarke Duncan as Coffey (For which he gained an Oscar nomination), make this movie is a must see.
Although not as outstanding as "Shawshank", it will still touch you in a way that will bring a little smile on your face and a tear to your eye as you leave your seat and head home.
