Shot Caller (2017)
7/10
Some Criminals Are Made In Prison
4 February 2024
Shot Caller is a 2017 crime thriller that centers around a family man and his transformation into a hardened prison gangster after being convicted in a DUI car accident.

This is a fantastic movie that takes a serious hard look at how some criminals can be made and not born the way they are. It's a gripping and tragic story that sucks you in and gives you a glimpse of the harsh realities that can be associated with doing hard prison time. The acting is incredible, watching the main character (Money) portrayed by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau transform from your everyday family man into the ruthless killer that he becomes is actually quite chilling. It's a gritty film that packs a big punch, leaving you feeling bad for how the main character ends up, but is also a satisfying way to end the story.

It might not be for everyone, but I found the film absolutely captivating. If you've never seen Shot Caller before, I would highly recommend checking it out.
