Robert Redford stars in this action drama as General Irwin, a respected three-star tactician whose career ends in disgrace when he's court-martialed and sent to The Castle, a maximum security military prison. Irwin quickly butts heads with the facility's autocratic warden, Colonel Winter (James Gandolfini), who runs his command with an iron fist, even killing prisoners when he deems it necessary. Irwin rallies his fellow convicts into a rag-tag army and leads them in a revolt against Winter, an action that the warden is ready to repel by violent means. Mark Ruffalo, Robin Wright Penn, and Delroy Lindo co-star in this Dreamworks production, the third feature film from one-time film critic Rod Lurie. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

    I saw this movie on a bus and had never heard of it and watched it just for the heck of it and really liked it. Compelling, intriguing and not at all what i expected. Not a typical movie. I am not a big fan of Redford and only gave it a chance because of Gandolfini. I'm glad I did. This movie was really good!

    This movie shows what old actors should do as they gain age and experience. They should simply act, not play action roles. Redford does an excellent job in this film. It provides a good story, with strong roles and a good tome. To some, since it is more of a drama than an action flick, it might be considered slow. This is an intelligent film that shows characters, above all else, teaching people how to be better. It does this through the telling of an excellent tale. That makes it well worth renting or buying.

    Yes   |   No
