Curious to see where the main actor goes, he's got that jake Gyllenhaal/heath ledger charm that's interesting. Unfortunately it's one of those movies where the guy starts off as arrogant in prison and grows to get respect of inmates and wardens unfortunately in this movie he never becomes humble or altruistic, he remains an asshole for most of the movie and i didn't feel it earned any of the heartfelt moments it shot for. It results in a deeply frustrating viewing experience and you kind of side with the other inmates hoping for his downfall. I'm happy for small budget films getting off the ground but even with that handicap I didn't enjoy this at all, I'd rather watch a sister act/green mile marathon, would hit all the same notes this one fumbled.
