a very good heart wrenching film . covers th...e pro's and cons to the policy of death row in some american states. kiefer plays his character with his usually professional adeptness.forest whitaker plays the prison screw with a heart, again played very well by this now seasoned actor.i had the video for years but replaced it recently with d.v.d. worth watching xx
hard hitting and thought provoking film makes you almost feel sor...ry for the condemned man although the final execution scene is at times difficult to watch its very hard to tear yourself away from the screen, not for the feint hearted but very much recomended!!
Excellent film well worth the money .......................................................................
Rather slow at times. The acting is excellent but the... subject matter is limited. There is much emphasis on the brutality in death row, and that's just the guards! Well directed, sad and not one I would watch again.
