To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Val Kilmer, I thought I might as well check it out.

Indeed, I don’t think it’s was unjust that Wade had to go to prison for what he did and his sentence actually seemed to be fair.

Elokuvapäiväkirja 2017 (315 movies items)

"16.11. Kunnon kansalainen joutuu vankilaan, koska hän hakkaa pesismailalla taloonsa murtautuneen pikkurikollisen. Kiven sisällä vangit laitetaan tappelemaan, koska he tappelisivat kuitenkin. Vartijat lyövät vetoa siitä kuka on kovin, Val Kilmer ei pyyhi persettään kunnolla ja pidin tästä yllättävän paljon. "
