My quick rating - 6,6/10. Brutal yet well done prison tale that doesn't use a lot of flash to get its point across. Action scenes are slow paced, and have a good sense of realism. Nothing heroic about gunfire, or people acting out of normal. Realism was the point of this movie, and yes, at times, the protagonist (Vince Vaughn) is kind of superman in hand to hand, but still acts out the pain (or for wrestling fans, "sells") and keeps this rooted into the ground. Good watch if you like a crime flick that happens to be pretty violent, but holds an honor and family message in it.
