"This is one of those timeless classics I could see myself watching again and again moments of humor incredible acting actually filmed on location a true story to go with it memorable moments and line one of my favorites being There is always the chance that somehow asshole will get offended "
"A great reputation of what really happened on The Rock when Frank Morris and the others were inmates. It should be noted that there were just a few things in the movie that really didn't happen like inmate Doc cutting his fingers off or the numbers above the cells as the numbers were actually added for movie purposes."
