Very amateur movie sadly. Acting was plastic by unknowns and came across like one of those 80's cardboard soap operas. Audio was a bit off too. For a Netflix movie I'd of expected a bit more professionalism.
I made the mistake of reading about the battle of Alcatraz before viewing this film.
When you read the true facts there is clearly a story there to make a really good film depicting the real events.
Why then "hollywood" as it often does departs from true events and changes the facts baffles me as ever.
If you view the film without knowing the true story you may find it more enjoyable and rate it a bit higher.
And as for the last 5 minutes of this film, it is absolute drivel, they should have edited it out !

What a pointless pile of dung this movie is. It is just full of derivative cliches taken from Patton and The Departed and other good movies. It is boring and has laughable acting. That army general is just a silly, buffoonish character. It is hard to imagine this garbage got made
I saw this movie a while back and honestly had never been more confused in my entire life. The movie makes no sense, not even Kubrick could understand it. Would recommend to anyone who likes bad movies cause this is one of the worst. It's boring, poorly acted and thinks it's being clever and artsy. It's not the worst movie ever but it's just the worst. That sentence makes about as much sense as the movie it self. Waste of time. No it's got no 10 star review. No one likes this film
This alcatraz movie just suck. I say just wash escape from alcatraz by clint eastwood. It had better & interesting story. It had better music & actors and it more interesting to watch. But this alcatraz (2018) had none of that at all. The plot sucks. The actors sucks. And the music & special effects sucks. It is a poorly made movie. And you shouldn't wash it.
