Trivialidades:

The fights filmed during production were frenetic and were not choreographed. Many of the actors in these scenes were ex-convicts, thus the fights were an accurate representation of the mixed martial arts and street fighting common in this subpopulation.

Errores:

Errores cometidos por los personajes (posiblemente errores deliberados por los cineastas): In the beginning of the movie John refers back to how his daughter would have been 27 at that time but by the tattoo calender on his arm she should have only been 22 or 23.

Citas:

Officer Collins: Close 13.
[door closes]
Snowman: Come on. I'm supposed to be in PC the rest of my term. Jackson said.
Officer Collins: Jackson's dead... you can get up.

one of the better prison films

I give it a 10 out of 10 because it kept me in front of the screen, I think it portrayed the prison life from many different perspectives. Despite this dark storyline it's a film I enjoyed more than many others in the last years. It's the first time I leave a comment in 3 years at IMDb, just to let you understand how I enjoyed this film. All characters are developed to suit the overall story, without going too deep or to shallow. Especially Harold Perrineau surprised me, this is his best performance to date. Val Kilmer was just a pleasure to see, this dark Character suited him very well, his acting becomes better and better the older he gets. Great screenplay followed up by a formidable cast. I look forward to see more from Ric Roman Waugh.
