CGiii Comment

A prison drama that brings nothing new to the genre.

Bouhnik directorial style is sadly lacking in sophistication - the performances are testament to this unfortunate fact...stilted and wooden.

The last scene is a prime example of how not to end a film. Annoying rather than overwrought.

The(ir) Blurb...
