Wissenswertes
As of 2023, this is the last live action film James Woods has been in.

Patzer
At the end of the film, there is a summary of what James has achieved since the movie time-line finished but there's a glaring spelling mistake and quite ironic in the context of the sentence: "He (James) studied writing and poetry at Borough of Manhattan Community College and hopes to continue his highter [sic] education"

Zitate
[first lines]
Conrad: [pinning James to the ground] We get a hundred little shits like you transferred from Youth Corrections every year. Now, you got two problems. One, you done all your time so far with kids instead of real cons, so you think you're tougher than you actually are. Two, the guards at the YOS still think they can put Humpty back together, which makes 'em soft. Means you're used to gettin' away with shit. Here, you throw an elbow at another inmate, we got a problem. You understand that?

The Description is Misleading

This movie was nothing like its description. There isn't any chemistry whatsoever between Jamesy Boy and the lifer. Not once did they portray a strong bond between both characters. So many great actors with not much to work with. What a waste.
