Darm, well I have seen it ALL.....

You have to just let go of the reality that this wouldn't ever happen. He ran a red light and accidentally killed his friend (of whom was the reason he was distracted and ran the light, I might add).

This is like watching your normal schema of war movies. Protagonist is plunged into violence only in the end to redeem himself for all his mishaps for some moral virtue like saving his family.

Movie is an excellent portrayal that even the best of people can do the worst of things when being out in a difficult situation. Never have I seen a movie before where I was rooting for a criminal the entire time until this.

What an amazing story. The story of a man willing to do anything to protect those he loves.

People need to see this movie. It's amazing I won't go into any of the plot but it really shows you what's it's really like when dealing with a shot caller.

Wow - I can't get back those two hours. I was optimistic about some of the reviews and cast, but the flaws in the plot were too glaring to overlook.

"Shot Caller" seems to be an awkward title for a movie, but the story eventually gets to the point where it's explained well enough. This is a gritty crime and prison drama following a former businessman's descent into depravity upon receiving a jail term for a DUI resulting in the death of a friend.

Way better then Brawl in cell block 99. From the point of view of someone who has experienced this justice system.
