New York Prison Break: The Seduction of Joyce Mitchell

Unrealistic and non sense movie .. No nudity,no sex scenes😅..boring xharacters.

I've watched some pretty awful movies on Lifetime, and although this was based on a true story, I could not even watch the entire movie. I know Miss Miller studied Joyce in order to portray her to the best of her ability and for accuracy, but Joyce is THE most pathetic woman I've ever seen and her weakness was so annoying that I skipped out on the last 40 minutes. We all know the ending, so no need wasting valuable time on such drivel.

I am not sure how I ran across this, but decided to watch it. Could not help be compare it with Ben Stiller's brilliant Escape at Dannemora limited series. It didn't quite meet the criteria. Guess it's like saying a high school production of Hamlet didn't compare to a West End production.

BUT! I did learn a few more things.

All in all, people should be aware when they are being 'courted' by cons. Cons in jail or in school or at your job. Cons are cons. They are everywhere and they are men and women.

Was she naive: No doubt. We all are at one - or 10 - times in our lives.

I did work in a federal prison for a brief time and some of the prisoners were very charming. And they could certainly spin a tale. The trick was to smile and let it go. Too bad she couldn't.

This is an interesting story and if I could only watch one, I'd watch the Ben Stiller version, but this one was okay.

A film about seduction, betrayal and 2 cons who used all their charm to seduce a prison work supervisor into helping the cons to escape. Highly recommend this film.

This movie actually surprised me, after the last few lifetime biopics I saw I didn't have very high hopes for it. But the acting in this was great and they pretty much covered all the events that happened from beginning to end. If you like lifetime movies I would definitely check this out!
