Val Kilmer, Stephen Dorff, Harold Perrineau, Jr. and Sam Shepard star in this prison drama, the story of a family man who is convicted of murder for killing an intruder who enters his home, threatening the lives of his wife and son. As he struggles to survive the violent penal system which includes a maximum-security state prison in which a corrupt lieutenant tries to maintain power and order, even if it means crossing the line.

Time Out

Nothing like a gritty, gaunt B flick to cut those studio behemoths down to size. Felon is an especially raw prison...

A Customer from Yeovil, 7th October, 2008

What a total suprise, not exactly a chick flick and you wouldnt fancy a stint in prison after watching it but it grips you from 5 mins in all th way to the finish. Great!

Loved it!

ukwicksy from from Trimdon Station, 29th July, 2008

I was unsure whether to watch this title as it had been portrayed as a drama, but im so glad i watched it. I give it a 5/5 because it kept me interested throughout from the fight scenes to the more touching moments i also think Val Kilmer was a pleasure to watch.

Great Film!

TuskenRaiderBob from from Doncaster, 7th October, 2008

Gripping prison drama, well acted, well directed and well written. The stand out performance is Val Kilmer, although there is no weak link in the rest of the cast. The film is quite heavy going, the anti chick flick. The best film i've watched since The Dark Knight.

Unexpected gem !!

A Customer from Liverpool, 6th January, 2009

Totally unexpected this movie to be so good - gripping from the start. Outstanding performance by Val Kilmer aswell as ALL the rest of the cast (excellent performance by the 'baddie' prison officer too). Well directed, really good storyline, 5 out of 5.
