Caged (2021)

My quick rating - 4,0/10. If you are making a list of things that a movie at this level should not get wrong, you will be very busy. There is no way they could possibly think a prison cell is water tight? Speaking of prison vs. jail, you would think they may have been able to afford a consultant to explain these two different things to them. Anyway, we have another story about being in solitary and a man losing his grasp on reality while being subjected to it. Yes this is still a major topic in the prison system and has been explored, far better than this I might add. The rational acting of our inmate, Harlow (Edi Gathegi) is quite cringe worthy while when he is meeting his evil self in his head he actually is pretty convincing. So it evens out. Beyond him the story has Harlow believing he is innocent of murdering his wife, and we follow down a trip with him to finding out the truth. Along the whole time is an evil female guard (I think her gender is supposed to be important) who is pushing all the buttons to drive him to the brink. I also believe she is the only guard that works in this prison, but that is back to that list you'll be creating if you do take the time to view this. My advice is don't.
