How is it that a film that has great acting, intriguing cinematography and decent direction...utterly undo all that good work in the final moments!?!
Craig Fairbrass is great in his role as long-term inmate. The chemistry is good between him and the rest of the cast even though (due to covid restrictions) couldn't film outside the prison cell itself. Of all the films that went in production in 2020 - this film suffered from the one-room setting I feel.
The plot itself makes you want to root for Steve; despite the fact that he committed a hideous crime 20 years ago. Steve gets a new inmate and there's almost a father-son dynamic between them.
Spoilers from this sentence onwards:
The ending makes absolutely no sense! Makes viewing the movie a complete waste of time, in retrospect. Such a shame because it was good slow burner up until that point!
