After working as a drug courier and getting into a brutal shootout with police, a former boxer finds himself at the mercy of his enemies as they force him to instigate violent acts that turn the prison he resides in into a battleground.
I was questioning wether to quit or not in the first 30 minutes, it felt flat and boring. The rest of the movie subverted my expectations. Amazing action sequences, full of violence. Great rythm and acting.
Brutal, intense, beautiful and relentless. A long slow burn, that builds up a credible story, and introduces us to one mean motherfucker personified in Vince Vaughn.
