pretty mild and light prison life must have been a minimal minimal security prison.....Love Steve Buscemi, awesome actor....so was everyone in this flic.....except, they looked like they were in reform school .

I absolutely agree. I'm a fan of Buscemi, but he failed to "get" it right.
While seeing it, I was always thinking "these convicts are pretty easy-going". Showing a couple of random stabbings and some badly-rehearsed fight scenes is not enough to capture the grittiness of prison.
Sorry, Steve,but I'll file this in the "weak" folder. ;)
Have any of you ever been in prison?
I *beep* doubt it.

me too! people arent constantly killing each other in prison
despite what some people think
most con's want to keep there heads down, do there time and get out
obviously some love the drama, but then they just fight people similarly minded
all the gangs fuqq each other up over drug dealing etc
or people get stabbed up for not paying drug debts, but thats most of the
violence right there!
- who am i? im a spoke on a wheel, so was he and so are you.
@ Berneaud
How the *beep* do you know what prison life is like
SMH @ you saying Buscemi "failed" to get "it" right
stupid moron!
Bunker was a bright but troublesome child, who spent much of his childhood in different foster homes and institutions. He started on a criminal career at a very early age, and continued on this path throughout the years, returning to prison again and again. He was convicted of bank robbery, drug dealing, extortion, armed robbery, and forgery. A repeating pattern of convictions, paroles, releases and escapes, further crimes and new convictions continued until he was released yet again from prison in 1975, at which point he finally left his criminal days permanently behind and became a writer.
When he was paroled in 1975, Bunker had spent eighteen years of his life in various institutions. While he was still tempted by crime, he now found himself earning a living from writing and acting. He felt that his criminal career had been forced by circumstances; now that those circumstances had changed, he could stop being a criminal.
He published his second novel, Animal Factory to favorable reviews in 1977.

Let's say I have occasion to watch two space movies...say Apollo 13 and then oh...let's say Spy Kids 3D. I might finish and feel that one of these films (hard to say which) played loose with the truth.
Of course, I can say this only because I have a point of reference, I being a well-traveled space explorer and all.
