This is a really solid prison drama. Easily one of the best I have seen in a while probably since Felon, although not quite as memorable as that one IMO. Matthias Schoenaerts just kills it here and the scene between him and his daughter towards the end is so fantastically heartbreaking. The guy is just great a portraying characters who can be so damn imposing, but vulnerable at the same time. Bruce Dern is Bruce Dern which is always great and its cool seeing Josh Stewart pop up in stuff from time to time considering it feels like I don't actually see him in many mainstream movies these days. I really enjoyed the amount of levity Jason Mitchell brought to this movie as well.

His charisma and charm is perfectly suited for films like this.

B+
