I'll never understand this cheeseball trainwreck of a movie getting such a high IMDb score; I feel like even 6 is being EXTREMELY generous. Not that 'Green Mile' is badly-made; Technically and production-wise it's great. But it's INSANELY sugary, condescending, and one-dimensional- Feels like one of those old Hallmark Channel, made-for-TV movies that granny likes so much, except with 50x the budget, and a-list actors. (idk, maybe it's just me; I have a low tolerance for all these saccharine, 90's tear-jerkers, like this movie, 'Dead Poets', 'Good Will Hunting').
Or, you know those Christian tv shows, where the new guy in town SEEMS like just a drifter, but it turns out he's REALLY an angel, who solves everyone's problems using literal plot-magic? Green Mile is just that, but somebody threw $60mil at it. - DirectorSteve MinerStarsBridget FondaBill PullmanOliver PlattFour people attempt to stop a gigantic crocodile, who is terrorizing residents in Black Lake, Maine.6/10*
