Cadence (1990)
7/10
Good, Not Memorable
22 February 2020
Franklin Bean (Charlie Sheen) gets sentenced to the stockade for striking an MP. He only has to do 90 days but he's the only white guy in a stockade with five Black men who have considerably longer sentences. "Cadence" is about Franklin's ability to get along with his stockade-mates while surviving Master Sergeant McKinney's bullying and dealing with his father's death.

The movie was pretty good, but nothing special. It's a drama with some dramatic moments. Naturally, there was some racial tension being that the movie was set in 1965, but I've seen a lot worse. This movie was tame compared to many others. The performances nor the script really leapt out at me. There was nothing about this movie that made it stand out amongst the crowd. It was a good movie and all, but barely memorable.
