Scott M Agree with reviewers on RT, that other than the knock out model looks of Sara Malakul Lane, this is a terrible terrible movie. Some of the worst acting imaginable. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/25/24 Full Review Audience Member The movie was really messed up. Best part was her getting out of prison. It was totally sick and horrible what she went through. Secondly she should of never been in there in the first place. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/18 Full Review Audience Member Makes me wonder why I have to pay $10 a month to watch complete shit like this. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Ok. So. Let's just start off by saying what a well shot, and I do use that term loosely, piece of shit this film is. First. Self defense. That's a thing. Second. The Latina botched the draw. Like it needed to be reshot, but I'm assuming they ran out of time to edit. Third. Just don't watch. I wasted a small chunk of time. It never stops assaulting your eye sockets. Did the graphic novel do the same, but you had to physically flip the pages? Like work muscles for this torture? I will never find out. If I want to watch pr0n, there is plenty else I can find with far better acting. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Genuinely a garbage piece of sexploitation. This movie managed to turn lesbianism, powerless women, and rape like literally just rape into one big fetish and it was genuinely sickening. It's basically porn? Which like-- if you want to make porn, just make porn. Don't fake like you're taking some gritty look at the women's prison system, or rape culture, or mental illness or drug use or whatever. The only requirement for any plot point in this trash was "Can I make this main character get naked as a result of this decision". As you can imagine, this entire movie is an hour and a half of scrambled together and extremely vague stances on such polarizing cultural issues as "drugs are bad!!!!" and "maybe don't kill yourself!!!!!!" It ends the way you think it's gonna end. Don't watch it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
