    Pretty darn good prison movie

    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.

    Trying this out randomly

    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!

    Solid

    Soundtrack was good. I'd give a 7.5 if I could. Didn't realize it was based on a true story. I like movies like that. Aubrey has a bright future. Loved him as Cloak, though I'm a Marvel nerd lol Good ending always helps. Not sure why that isn't sufficient enough of a review, but apparently i still need 294 characters, so let's get it. The movie did give me good perspective on freedom and perceived freedom. Makes appreciate the small things like seeing color everyday, feeling the breeze on your skin, and hearing the birds sing. Watched this movie at the perfect time in my life with everything that's been going on. Worth the watch.

    Not what I expected

    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.

    W O W - left speechless Body

    BOSCO was one of those movies that surprise you. You go in thinking one thing, and leave with a whole new perspective on things. Who knew one jail cell could keep me engaged for so long. It's one of those films where, you know he gets out because it's based on a true story, but how it all comes together, that's what matters. The journey each character goes through during 90 mins is insane!! The kind of movie that moves you and those around you. This movie flew by. What a cast, the acting was superb. And i read somewhere this is the directors first film?! Well that guy has a bright future I'll tell you that much. Do yourself a favor and check this one out on Peacock (if you have it lol). It has a lot to say, in a condensed format that doesn't get boring. Enjoy the flick!!!!
