The Shawshank Redemption (1994,  R)
The Shawshank Redemption
One of the most outstanding films ever made. Brilliently written, well casted, by Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins.

Adaped from book to film, each twist accurately calculated, which will not fail to bring a smile to your face. A very powerful on screen relationship between the two main characters, which only adds to the depth of this amazing tale.

VERDICT: For the small minority that haven't seen this film, be prepared to be blown away.

Mystic River (2003,  R)
Mystic River
Directed by Clint Eastwood and boasting an all star cast of some of Hollywood?s most talented Actors. This is Hollywood minus the Hollywood glint, it?s down to earth, believable, with some impressive performances all around, in particular, Tim Robins, Sean Penn and Marcia Gay Harden.

This Murder mystery, turned vigilante storyline is tough, raw and deeply personal.

The brilliance of the film is that it doesn?t just build to a climatic ending, there are some pretty big things that happen throughout the film that make a huge impact.

One of my favourite films that I have watched over and over.

War of the Worlds (2005,  PG-13)
War of the Worlds
Amazing effects and great acting as usual from young Dakota, however that's where the good review ends. I was pretty disappointed from the time the tripods made there appearance, to me I was expecting something a little more advanced, instead came something from what could have been from an 80's movie.

I am proud, however, that I made it to the end of the film, even though it seemed to go on and on - maybe I should give up trying to like Sci-fi?

Dead Man Walking (1995,  R)
Dead Man Walking
A fantastic performance from susan Surrandon in this film, alongside Sean Penn, who never fails to impress me.

Certainly an unusual story of a num befriending a murderer on death row up to his execution date.

Watch out for a younger Jack Black.

VERDICT: A good film, worth watching
