Sorry, this movie sucks
Just perfect...
Best movie of this year hands down!
Stephen dorff is a totally underrated and excellent actor who deserves excellent roles. This thing is very mediocre and just ism't super great. There's another movie with almost the same story line that came out sometime in the teens like 2016 maybe...it totally sucks. There are so many ultra lame movies out there on all ends of the spectrum and no-talent actors like chris pratt that the state of movie making sucks. I'd like to see stephen dorff in some really cool movies, he definitely has the acting chops if he could get the roles.
one of films about you have the conviction, behind see it, than you know all. the familiar story, the actors performances, the atmosphere, the end. after the beginning of "Felon", scene by scene, the first impression falls.because it is a film about American correctional system.but the good thing - it could not be reduced at this level. it represents one of films about basic values who defines, in a large sense, solidarity against the evil. it is a form of exorcism for our hidden fears about future. and this is the motif for who, after its end, "Felon" remains as a ball of questions in your mind.
This was filmed by someone with parkinson's and a hand-held camera. I think the premise is great but I lasted all of 10 minutes. It's unbelievable how much the camera shakes! You can imagine but you can't truly grasp it unless you watch this trainwreck. Fortunately, at least one other reviewer feels the same as me.
OMG What A Great Movie ... I Never Heard Of It And It Took Me Completely By Surprise ... Although Stephen Dorff Is Excellent In His Role As The A Man Surviving To Get Back To His Family It Is Val Kilmer's Roll As The Anti-Hero That Makes This A Brilliant Movie ... The Movie Closes And I Am Left With A Sadness That Is Contrary To The Type Of Movie That It Is ... And That Is A Testament To The Script ... Hard Yet Loving, Merciful Yet Unforgiving, Guilty Yet Innocent ... Felon Reminds Us That The Only Devils Live In Our Hearts And Minds ... It's Greatest Lesson Is That We Can All Rise Above Who We Are ... Shawshank Redemption Is The Last Time A Prison Film Has Moved Me Like This
