8. lighting in some scenes adds to opressive feeling of the prison
9. plot is believable
10. engaging story
11. makes you root for the "bad guys"
12. thought provoking
13. uses period acurate props
14. interesting view point on what can be acomplished in jail
15. never any real slow, boring points of plot summary

In few other movies have i been made to like what
