Only seen half of those but "Innocent Man" was pretty damm good. Still not out on DVD yet.
Escape was pretty good but lacked the "shanking" action "Innocent Man" had. Hey blood, where's "Blood in Blood Out"? |

Murder in the first.
Then of course, Cool Hand Luke. "Let's go get us some farm girls Luke." |

Cool Hand and Shawshank. I think Shawshank was the better movie, but Paul Newman was awesome in Cool Hand.

Quoted: Tke Shawshank Redemption Eric Agreed. Of all the ones I've seen, that one is the most memorable, though Cool Hand Luke is a classic movie and comes in a close second. |

Shawshank, but Cool Hand Luke is an all-time classic.

Shawshank Redemption was a very good prison movie.

Definately one of the most brutal is "American Me".
Pretty difficult to watch at times. |

Yup....Shawshank and Midnight Express were two of the best ever.

What?...you guy's didn't like "Blood in Blood Out"? Shankings galore and a "Tinker Bell" to top it off.

Most of the best were listed. I still like the classic old war style prison flick... The Great Escape.

From what I've learned from prison movies, America has a problem with unreasonably cruel wardens managing our prisons.

Quoted: Most of the best were listed. I still like the classic old war style prison flick... The Great Escape. Sorry, but POW movies don't count. POW movies have none of the key elements: 1. scary convicts who "just got out of the hole". 2. threat of going to "the Hole" 3. shanks. 4. prison rapes 5. guys named "Bull" 6. drama in "the yard" All the great prison movies have these things in common. |

Prison movies
Shawsank Redemption Short Eyes [url]http://us.imdb.com/Plot?0076706[/url] Obscure prison movie about a a child molester who gets his comeuppance. Seemed pretty realistic and brutal at the time. Papillion Carbine Williams [url]http://us.imdb.com/Plot?0044480[/url]. (okay, so not that great but also plays into the gun interest of this forum). It stars Jimmy Stewart in the true story of David Williams who invented and *built* the M-1 Carbine while serving time on a prison work farm). POW movies Bridge Over the River Kwai The Birdmen (made for TV)[url]http://us.imdb.com/Plot?0066833 [/url] Pretty ridiculous but entertaining move about POWS who construct a glider in secrecy to fly out of a POW camp on a mountain top (presumably Colditz)to Switzerland... I told you it was ridiculous. |

I'd say that "Reform School Girls" counts as one.
