Well, well, well.

Something is very wrong here.
I suppose there were aspects of this movie that were not deemed politically correct.
The movie never saw the theatre circuit, so I read. Shame, really.
Val Kilmer deserved an Academy Award for his performance. But, then, that would be kind of difficult to explain. Would it not?
This movie is a Must See.
Don't know what else to say without being cliche.

Was really happening

Just to give you a taste of what prison politics are like,these events really were happening at Corcoran State Prison. Sadly both sides of the law get blurred sometimes but it gives the public a real look into prison life, in and outside the walls. Well done and very good acting by all the actors.

Great Movie
Added 11/25/2009
This movie is great. I've never seen a movie that made me feel this is what it would be like for ME if I went to prison.
Note: I'm NOT a drug dealer, cold blooded murderer, gang banger, etc.

great dvd

Great movie, better then I expected. Marisol Nichols is a good actress, haven't seen her in many movies, Val Kilmer is believable as a prisoner. I recommend this DVD(Blu-Ray).

Realistic, involving prison film
Added 10/26/2009
The Bottom Line:
Though Felon's conclusion is contrived beyond all belief, the majority of the film's running time is a brutal and engaging journey through a California prison's Secure Housing Unit with Stephen Dorff's everyman protagonist as our guide; if you want an interesting 90 minute film, by all means grab this one.
3/4
