Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
可以算牌，可以控制赢到什么程度就离席，可以时时刻刻保持自己的行为准则，但摆脱不了曾经的梦魇，赢不了那个高喊USA的对手，救不了一心要复仇的孩子。从监狱开始，又回到监狱，到头来最适应的还是监狱生活。影片整体给人感觉是精致又晦涩的，克制又忧伤，结尾比较拉胯。每一个镜头里的Oscar Isaac都帅得不像话。
和老婆一起躺床上看的，中间暂停了两次，也就是干了两次。
到中段都表现不错 但是后面的misunderstanding实在是太cliché了
（豆瓣真空期补标9月末-12月）私人口味，无法解释，我就是钟情这样的风格。有点暗黑，时间对等，完全在场。
保罗·施拉德的男主角永远是黑暗世界的赎罪者和拯救者，而他自己已然成为新好莱坞的活化石。
Lucy Hale真的太矮了…当圣诞剧看还是蛮有趣的
情人节看完 情节很老套 但中间剧情和台词还不错
我好像浪费了时间看了个什么电影，只记得男主那身紧身衣加棉裤……非常Mugler
很棒的美国职场爱情 美国职场战争也是明争暗斗 但是暗斗都是努力增加自己的实力 明争都是明面上斗 不喜欢的都放到明面上说 这样多好 比咱们这强多了 美国式爱情也很棒 喜欢就一触即发 能干的很快就都干了 干净利索 挺好看的 很轻松又很活跃

推荐推荐！好好看，看的很开心的浪漫爱情轻喜剧~男女主角帅的和
好俗……虽然看得就是俊男靓女谈恋爱 但是是怎么做到毫无火花 毫无剧情可言 然后就是 派对、圣诞、见父母…… 看来漂亮国拍烂片一点也不输大陆！sos
看了4分之1，没什么意思，无非办公室恋情呗，观感不理想，这演员身高差不太能接受，咯吱人的笑料实在是提不起神来
本片延續了保羅施拉德編劇的《出租車司機》以及《基督最後的誘惑》等對戰後創傷，孤獨憤怒，自我救贖等主題，編導風格壓抑剋制，並無一般賭片那般緊張刺激，但一觸即發的暴力處理得讓人屏氣凝神。保羅施拉德刻畫的救贖之路，是無法用金錢，愛情，法律就可以洗清的罪孽，賭徒再是精于計算，也無法脫離命運的擺弄，那種扭曲，地獄的虐囚經驗造就了他自毀之路，保羅施拉德藉由此片控訴了美國的愚蠢無情的愛國主義暴力，沾染鮮血的手亦能作惡，也能懲奸，亦能像羅伯特布列松的《扒手》一般用手指在囚禁和自由間傳情。
可是个人感觉好像也没有那么欢乐。
全片明暗摇曳、压抑隐忍，加之男主角着实冷峻，紧绷绷地透着无限内心交战，可惜了这位扑克精算师，最后再度身陷囹圄；所幸音乐足够煽风点火。
Lucy Hale这种题材的电影真实驾轻就熟 跟男主好🈶️chemistry /冬天躲被窝里舔屏就够了 要什么逻辑！
我好像浪费了时间看了个什么电影，只记得男主那身紧身衣加棉裤……非常Mugler
睡了醒，醒了睡，说不清是我太累了还是这片真的蛮无聊的，鱼眼镜头的监狱片段视觉上很有意思，每次赢牌就要喊USA的那群人好讽刺。
