Not uninteresting but not for me
27 January 2023
It is rather unusual to show a prison movie this way, from the psychological point of view. The classical jail scheme is about violence, brutality, escape plan, not from this angle. That said, it is unusual but, sorry, I was pretty bored. I prefered RIOT IN CELL BLOCK 11 or BRUTE FORCE, or THE LAST MILE. I tried to avoid this Hugo Fregonese film all long those years, and I finally tried it. And that confirmed I was damn right to run away from it. Again, I don't say it's a bad film, not at all, but for moviegoers in search of prison films, I warn, it is very special. Psycholgical study of inmates; it is definitely a drama and not a crime flick, as some dictionaries say. Not the Hugo Fregonese's film that I will remember in first. Or only to avoid it again in the future.
