Jamie Lanister is a normal guy with a normal life and then an innocent mistake happens, which leads to him being sent to prison. During his time, he's forced to join a prison gang to survive. The rest of the movie is a tangled web about a weapons shipment, his gang, his family, and law enforcement.
The Punisher and Michael Wesson also star. Bernthal plays a guy like Shane from TWD, and is a bit transparent, which is perfect for this role. Donovan is creepy as shit and nothing like Michael Wesson..
Really solid movie. Great acting and while the story has a hole here and there, it's interesting and makes a good statement.
Probably didn't get a lot of love during award season because it portrays a straight white man as a great father and husband.
One complaint: It's a bit long. Lots of shots of minor activities that add up like handcuffs being locked and unlocked, scenes of brooding, etc.
Good movie, see it.
