CGiii Comment

Since it borrows heavily from Scum - comparisons are inevitable.

The writing is appalling, the direction rushed and unaccomplished and the acting is strained - bordering on the wooden.

Character development is nil, the ending ridiculous.

Chapiron has all the shortcomings of an inexperienced auteur.

Either direct or write - you plainly can't do both.

The(ir) Blurb...

When 17-year-old Butch is sent to the Enola Vale Youth Correctional Center in Montana for blinding an abusive correctional officer, he brings with him a deep-seated intolerance for injustices and a penchant for meting out retributions on his own. No one had better mess with him or anyone else while he's there. Unfortunately, many do.
