Samenvattingen(1)
Eric is een jonge delinquent die vanwege zijn gewelddadige gedrag wordt overgeplaatst naar een gevangenis voor volwassenen. Daar wordt hij geconfronteerd met zijn eigen vader, die het grootste deel van zijn leven in de gevangenis heeft doorgebracht. (Cinemien)
Recensie (2)
In the end, the father/son storyline leads somewhere, but everything that goes before it is just an annoying observation of dull, uninteresting prison inmates and their skirmishes with each other or with the prison staff. Even the character of a psychologist who wants to help junior does not add anything useful to the film. The weakest of any dozen brutal prison dramas you can recall.

The drama is good, there are no moments when one could laugh. It intensifies towards the end, although it is basically an inevitable culmination, as suggested by the previous course of the whole movie. There are excellent scenes that will truly give you chills, which is exactly what the movie needs. Maybe making it even more intense would be truly climactic.
