It's extremely difficult to find a great movie that doesn't have a single funny moment in it. Most non-comedies find room for some comic relief, and if the movie is otherwise great then the comic relief doesn't usually fail.

The Shawshank Redemption comes very close to being elite while being totally unfunny, but I enjoy the line where Red bemoans the fact that he doesn't have Rita Hayworth stuffed down the front of his pants right at the moment.

The greatest bromance of all time.

I love the director's decision to only give us the Red/Andy reunion on an extremely wide zoom.

A very good movie and still vastly overrated.

I thought Morgan Freeman's exchange with Lau here was funny.

"The project attracted many stars of the time for the role of Andy, including Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise, and Kevin Costner."

Our perceptions are always biased by great performances, but come the **** on

The only possible upside is the knowledge that Tom Cruise would have crawled through 500 yards of **** to prepare for the role

I still want to live in a world where Will Smith took the part of Neo in The Matrix instead of doing Wild Wild West.

I read that Will Smith would have over-acted the **** out of that role and said Keanu was perfect for it.

keanu's "just be there in front of the camera" methodology was ideal for neo

I've had a can of Sierra Mist just kickin it real in my car for like two months. Been all over the place, but recently resting in my cup holder. Yesterday was the hottest day of the year, reaching mid 90s.

Found this today, can half empty. Never seen anything like it.

Do you like to imagine what happened over the ensuing months?

Sometimes I think I'd like for a qualified imaginary mind to draw it up for me. An hour and a half of Red and Andy just soaking up sun and suds on the beach, with well written dialog.

I wouldn't have guessed the whole top would blow 80% off to relieve pressure.

People have always apologized away Keanu’s performance in that movie and I’ve never understood it.

Still a great movie.
