Shot Caller (2017)

third act was weak, but Nikolaj was good, he can do more than just play Jaime.

Yeah it was pretty good

Liked it a lot, the arms deal however was disappointing, Nikolaj though is a great, want to see more movies with him.

It's a really good film to get to know more about the average trump voter. Nikolaj is a democrat who fell for /r/the_donald memes

yeah, it did feel a little underwhelming in the end, after it was being built up for the whole movie
I wish it had more scenes of them in prison.

also, no matter how many times I watch Jon Bernthal play the exact same character in every single thing he's in, it's still fun

Had a LOT in common visually and thematically with Felon and a few other films, but the performances made it work even though the plot petered out at the end.

I googled the director after watching this and it turns out the guy is obsessed with prison for some reason

According to him, Shot Caller is the end of the trilogy, with Felon and Snitch.

First and second act of movie is very good, has a good atmosphere, we finally see someone smart going into jail and making it, instead of a weak guy getting in and getting raped daily(like the black kid in the beginning)

Third act was bad like people mentioned, but Nikolaj really made this movie and i like to see him in a lot more stuff. He can do it

>the guy is obsessed with prison for some reason
he spent two years working as a volunteer with the California Department of Corrections, working in parole to do research on the prison system.
