Wouldn't even watch in prison. - The Last Castle review by PF
Not quite sure why I had this on my list. But wish I hadn't. At first I thought it was going to be a second rate Shawshank Redemption re-telling, but it didn't get close. Storyline lacked impetus for the sequence of events.
Lots of Stars & Stripes saluting, trumpet and snare-drum, but no surprises. Watch something else.
