Hollywood, CA – Love it or hate it, no one can deny that The Shawshank Redemption is one of the most iconic film franchises of all time.
The Shawshank Redemption launched the career of then-little-known actor Morgan Freeman, who went on to star in the Million Dollar Baby series and The Bucket List cinematic universe.
Based on a novel by the writer of the Stand By Me franchise and distributed by the same studio that produced beloved film series like Erin Brockovich, Christmas with the Kranks, and The Emoji Movie, The Shawshank Redemption movies were destined for greatness.
Here is the definitive ranking of every installment of The Shawshank Redemption from best to worst:
- The Shawshank Redemption
The Shawshank Redemption is the best The Shawshank Redemption movie ever made. Thanks to a timeless story, a triumphant score, and masterful acting, it’s no surprise The Shawshank Redemption was the first movie in the franchise to be nominated for an Academy Award.

This remastered version has the same actors and the same script that made the first film such a triumph, but the cinematography is terrible. The choice to re-film the original movie with a shaky camcorder while it’s playing on a laptop was uninspired, and the sound of someone eating pretzels in the background is wildly distracting.
- The inevitable remake starring Glen Powell
The point of making movies is to remake them, right?
A Shawshank Redemption remake hasn’t been produced yet, but somehow, it already has a 47% on Rotten Tomatoes. The scene where leading actor Glen Powell kneels shirtless in the rain is already trending on Twitter, and a certain subset of fans are already outraged that a person of color has been cast in a role previously played by a white actor.
