This movie rocks balls.
Cell 211 is a spanish film directed by Daniel Monzón in 2009. It's fuckin' good.
[B]So what's it about?[/B]
Juan Oliver leads a badass life. He has a wife who's pregnant, and he just got hired as a Prison Guard. He decides to go to the prison the day before he's actually supposed to start working, to check out the routines and whatnot. Although an accident occurs, rendering Juan unconscious. His co-workers drag him into an empty cell, number 211. Suddenly, all balls break loose as a massive riot starts in the cellblock. The coworkers flee the fuck outta there, leaving Juan. When he comes to, he gets approached by the biggest, baddest, burliest man in the prison. Malamadre. Juan convinced Malamadre and the rest of the prisoners that he's a new inmate, incarcerated for homicide. Juan has to survive the prison while Malamadre's plan for prison justice spirals deeper and deeper out of control.

[B]Well what did you think about it?[/B]
I thought it was really good. I liked the characters and the cinematography. While you can sorta guess how things are gonna turn out throughout the movie, there's still some surprises in store.
My final opinion, great movie. Watch it if you get the chance.
I'll be sure to look at it. Great things have been known to come out of Spain; look at The Machinist.
I just wish they desaurted the colors a little
This sounds awesome.
7.7 on IMDB, sounds interesting, I'll give it a watch.
Reminds me a bit of Con Air, the whole good guy pretending to be a criminal thing, and that can only be good since Con Air kicked ass.
I can't find this movie available for purchase or rent anywhere.
That Malamadre fellow is fucking scary.

Don't you mean The Machinist? And if so, I had no idea that was a spanish movie... seeing as it featured Christian Bale and was in, you know, english.

This seems really cool.

whoops, I always keep slipping the name up. But yeah, it's a Spanish movie with English dialog. Infact, the whole movie was shot in Spain
