The Last Castle is well worth a watch - mind you anything with James Gandolfini is. I’d also argue the Rock (set in Alcatraz) and Life (Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence”. Not an Eddie Murphy fan but surprisingly ok Midnight Express. Enough to put you off Turkey for life Alien 3 - having Charles Dance, Brian Glover and a cast of British names is a winner, even if the rest of the movie is crap. That said you can beat Shawshank - “I don’t need to smart wife killing banker to tell me where the bears s*** in the buckwheat”
