Great movie submitted by wellscai on August 5, 2018, 10:52am I had heard this was a classic, and now I understand why. I enjoyed Tim Robbins' performance, and the plot was excellent.

Wrongly sent to prison

Hope vs bitterness.
An innocent man sentenced to prison for murder he did not commit. His choices: die from terrible hatred and bitterness, stay and just put head down Or escape
His decision made, he begins to serve other prisoners with his skills.
Script written in a shallow way. Actors do their best.
