Shawshank now has an average rating of 9.2 and still it has been placed as number 2, i don’t really get it

For me, Shawshank’s always been the winner and been “hoping” that it gets the elusive first spot.. After all, “hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies”.

These are two of my favorites. I love both of these movies so it’s hard to pick but I’d have to say that the Godfather is a better film all together.

Mayank, Godfather is definitely worth watching more than once

Vasu/Raj, probably there is truncation in the rating With more “regular” voters voting in favor of Shawshank, it should probably eclipse Godfather soon ..

I too like both the movies, and in Godfather its more to do with the characters and the cast
Shawshank on the other hand is a powerful drama..

I am tempted to see both of these movies again

I agree with Vasuki. The rating have been truncated. So while we see both the ratings as 9.1, those are actually different.

Honestly, I think “The Godfather” is one of the most overrated movies ever. I would like “The Shawshank Redemption” to be no. 1.

I am a huge huge fan of both the movies…I would be pleased and disappointed at the same time if any one of them comes first

And both are very different movies…so I cannot really pick one…

The ratings are truncated to one decimal digit. I think the reason why Godfather is placed first might be because it is slightly ahead of Shawshank in second decimal place…

Well, I’ve not seen godfather but i’ve seen shawshank and shawshank was really cool. I’ve heard a lot about godfather and I guess my new year resolution will be to watch godfather

Nice catch though…even I’m not sure why shawshank isn’t at top…IMDB corrupt?????
