Redford, Gandolfini Shine

Prison movies can get a little depressing for me after awhile, but this is one of the best I've seen because the two lead actors, Robert Redford and James Gandolfini, are fascinating. I also liked this because the characters were a bit softer than in most prison movies, the language more tolerable and the story kept my rapt attention for the two-plus hours.

The only fault I can find with it is the normal credibility where people should have been shot but all the bullets miss, of course. That happens mainly to Mark Ruffalo's character. Also, I was surprised at Delroy Lindo being listed pretty high in the credits but he had very little screen time.

Overall, thanks to the acting this is a solid film and recommended.
