Rock and a Hard Place

Again I was not thinking much of it, didn't even know DJ was the instigator. Wonderful amazing strength from those young felons, and amazing heart and soul from all officers. That's what life is all about, courage patience strength persistence and above all don't you ever give up you dreams.

And you DJ I always liked you as an actor, now I understand why,you for real man.

Peace

If you've seen the ad for this HBO original movie lately, it shows Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (who's name is in the title even LOL) as the drill instructor of a hardcore group of young men in a military-like bootcamp, rather than being shipped off to do ten years to life in the pen--Sorta reminiscent of his movie, "The Gridiron Gang" . Well, yes, he shows up at the beginning --for like TWO minutes, and then is like, SEE YA -- I'm OUTTA here! LMAO So yes the TV spot -- little deceiving, however, stick around, this is a good movie, despite his absence! LOL I even thought this story might make a good big-screen dramatic film -- hmmm, the casting?? -- maybe Andy Garcia, Jamie Foxx.... Dwayne Johnson perhaps?? Haha

Excellent documentary. I am happy to see a program of this nature succeed. Do not let Donald Trump see this. He will want to cut the funding.Hopefully these young men will be able to turn their lives around. I did not know that the Rock was a graduate of this program. It certainly did not do him any harm.

Very good documentary.

There are a lot of documentaries of bootcamps.

But this bootcamp is special. This bootcamp also provides mental care and guidance together with the military drilling.

From their website, it looks like the program genuinely works, which is amazing.

"The Miami-Dade County Corrections and Rehabilitation Department Boot Camp Program has resulted in a consistently low recidivism rate for its graduates - currently at 11 percent. This means that nearly 90 percent of all graduates are able to turn their lives around thanks to the training and mentoring they receive through the Boot Camp program."

As a documentary, nothing special.
