A film that rips off Justin's novel 35 years before he wrote it. Its a prison film (obs) that gets fast and loose with the rules of early release - time off for punchin' dudes.

Prepare for a short film review.

I don't like it. It should be fun. It looks like it would be. The scenario lends itself to be fun. Its just not somehow. They get it right in the later films but somehow this just isn't really worth anyone's time.

UNLESS - you're a student of film history, based on its budget, technical ability and how its a part of a larger movement in cinema.
