Bosco

Well-made in a simple way, it has an engaging storyline, well-acted, sort of slow-paced not in a bad way, lots of suspension of disbelief, showing well enough in a tight frame a disproportionate system and "prejudices" that go with it.

The biographical story is saddening, but one cannot do anything about it cause there's a system in place and lonely souls get crushed in that world or are left with scars forever.

Was the most captivating film I've seen in years. Aubrey Joseph did an amazing job at portraying BOSCO. Movie was absolutely 10/10

Not often does a movie hold my attention for an hour or 90 minutes, this one did! It was both stunning and eye opening. How have we let our penal system get to this point? BOSCO is a low key genius too, how did he manage that on his own?

It leaves you wondering how many more BOSCOs there are out there who haven't escaped. It's sad, but I'm glad we're using cinema to open the eyes of the masses. One way to people's hearts and mind, has always been through beautiful cinema, and BOSCO fits the bill.

I'm a pretty big fan of the prison break genre. This one was compelling. Complex character development in such a short period of time. Thomas Jane is the maaan. I'd literally watch anything with him in it. I thought it felt a bit rushed at the end so I gave it 9 stars. Would still recommend anyone curious to check this out. Too bad it's only available on peacock or more friends could watch it too. Aubrey Joseph was new to me but that guy has some acting chops! Theo is a great cast too... vivica. Whoever cast this did a stellar job really. Tyrese! Lol haven't seen fast n furious in a while but good to see him too. I even wanna watch it again.

A friend recommended this to me because he knows i'm a fan of prison movies but wasn't expecting this. Thought by the poster might be more like a low budget action movie. I was wrong. It definitely is a lower budget under 10 million dollar movie, but caught myself fully bought in to the struggle of the main character, Bosco and the supporting characters. There were no big prison brawls although one cool fight scene that again, wasn't what I expected. The performances are great. I wish I had some more time with some of them, but the time I did have flew by. Was great seeing Vivica Fox in a strong role again. I wish there was more time with Bosco when he got out but I guess the writers had to stick with the true events of what actually happened. I loved the style of the ending scenes with the narrator over the music and all the cutting back and forth. The style overall was pretty damn cool. For all the maybe too quick paced storytelling, I still felt satisfied and like I was immersed in a world that led to some interesting questions.

It's pretty good generally not into prison stories much but this is definitely well made and can be hard to watch at times in a good way if that makes sense. Fits Thomas Jane, Theo Rossi and the main lead quite well; I'm surprised this isn't higher rated than 5.7 it seems a lot enjoyed Bosco I would say it deserve better! I can't imagine what it'd be like to be incarcerated seems genuinely awful to experience the absolute dread in such an isolated place. I really like how the movie gets better as it goes on it is a great thrill ride of an exclusive movie on peacock I hope the ratings increase it so well filmed!
