It's on tonight on Channel 4 at 9.10pm. I've not seen it before but it's been recomended to me so I'll give it a look.

If he went out, he'd tell people of the warden's crimes
I agree with the predictability element, but, that was only after they'd realised he'd escaped. As soon as the poster was shown in his cell it was obvious, but I hadn't known up to that point.
Although the shooting of 'the kid' was predictable it still made me jump when it happened. Why did the warden want Andy to stay inside? was it the stunts he'd pulled? the fact he did his taxes? ... I wasn't too sure of that bit.

I got a bit bored so flicked over to watch MOTD

Very nice. Well acted, touching, amusing and brutal in places.
I found some of it predictable though, such as the tunnel behind the poster, the kid getting shot and the setting the Warden up to get his.
Very enjoyable.

That's the first time I've seen it and I'd have to agree that it was marvellous.
A nice little twist and happy ending somehow went with the touching nature of the film.

What a great movie. It's absolutely excellent.
No film has ever touched me the way this has, it almost made me cry. :(
I love Morgan. :(

I saw it for the very first time, last week, after purchasing it on DVD, thanks to numorous reccomendations from people I know.
...And it touched my soul in a way I've never known before! Truly remarkable, highly memorable. The DVD extras made for good viewing also. It seems I'm not alone. :)
Yes, it is an act of disaster than it will be so badly broken up and shattered by the regular advert breaks and intervals. But hey, it could be worse - it could be ITV and you'd have to wait until AFTER THE NEWS to catch the last 20 minutes!!
I'd reccomend it to anyone now though. Anyone willing to listen to a film, instead of getting off on the idea of big guns, motorbikes, rap music and monstrous bosoms! :P

Shame Channel 4 will break it up with adverts...
