Saw this on late night TV and only half watched it to the end because the only other channel alternatives were infomercials and televangelists. A shallow and vapid regurgitation of every prison film cliche you've ever seen without even a hint of imagination or style to perhaps give SOMETHING a fresh twist. There is nothing here beyond badly scripted foul language and wimpishly poor staged violence. Even some shower attempted gay rape scenes that would breeze into a PG rating. This is a fat blob of nothing and I am left wondering why it was ever funded or made. If you looked at the script on paper, perhaps it would have some potential as trash cinema if the material was pushed to visceral extremes - but it wasn't. It is too timid to do so and the end result is just a waste of resources, talent and time that were stolen from someone else's film project that could not possibly have ended up worse. It is an embarrassment. If it ever shows up on your late night viewing, go to bed with a book instead. You will thank me for it,
