Plot
Rayford and Claude end up taking a trip for a New York (mafia?) boss down to the south. While they are down there, they are robbed and arrested, tried for the murder of a bad guy and thrown into prison for life. Of course they didn't kill the guy but no one would listen to them because they're in the south. So, how do they survive prison? Or can they get out before their life sentence is up....? And what will happen between the two of them - will they become friends or just stay mad at each other for all the years in prison that they are serving together?
Rating Criteria
0/5 – No value whatsoever. Absolute waste of time.
1/5 – Barely worth any time.
2/5 – Pathetic but has a bit of something to hold the attention a little.
3/5 – Somewhat kept the attention but could definitely have used more.
4/5 – Good, but not awe-strikingly amazing. Could have maybe used a bit more to the movie.
5/5 – Go see it! Wonderful movie all around. – characters, music, theme, story line, etc.
3.5/5 - This is a decent comedy though it is about being stuck in prison. It is interesting to see how people try to survive inside a prison, especially since Ray and Claude didn't do the crimes they were committed for. It is funny to watch Ray try his darndest to get out of prison and the ending makes you go "well....". I'm not going to spoil it for you but it is cute and they do end up as friends, after many years in the prison.
Ray's Boom Boom Room (a fantasy about owning a club):
I have seen this movie at least twice. I would recommend this movie as something to watch though it seems like there isn't much to see during the movie because they are stuck in the prison (except watching the failed attempts to get out of the prison, of course). The camaraderie between the inmates is cute, as seen in the dream sequence of Ray's Boom Boom Room. Is this a kid-friendly movie? Not necessarily but it isn't too violent or graphic.
Anyways, that's my movie review. Thanks for reading! More reviews to come eventually.
