The Last Castle (2001)
This movie shouldn't have been made...
While reading the other comments I must say this is NOT the best pick of the year. This is the worst thing since Crocodile Dundee in LA. There are more clichés in this movie then in a Jerry Bruckheimer movie. You'll know what I'm talking about if you saw this movie. Although I wouldn't even recommend this movie to people in a coma. The movie has all the clichés of a jail movie, this time they didn't choose for the usual "escape" story but more in the vein of that other cliché movie "Lock Up", the similarities are there. It's sad that in his old days Robert Redford is connected to this poorly project. If you wanna see a good Jail movie go rent "Brubaker", also with Redford but a thousand times better. Avoid this movie at all costs if you have at least one tenth of a brain.
Rai (1995)
A must see...
Raï is about a gang of youths in a Parisian suburb.This is the multicultural environment in which Mezz, Aziz, Laurent, Nordine, Poisson and the others have grown up. There is no future in Garges-les-Gonesses. Unemployment is high, drugs and violence are a part of everyday life. The opportunity to escape seems nonexistent. You have to see this for yourself. This is a very underrated movie.
Fans of La Haine should pick this up for it's exellent mix of drama and comedy and the beautiful score.
