Felon(2008)
A loving family man with a promising future, Wade Porter (Stephen Dorff) suddenly loses everything when he accidentally kills the burglar who broke into his home. Convicted of involuntary manslaughter, Wade is sentenced to spend the next three years inside a maximum security facility where the rules of society no longer apply. Forced to share a cell with a notorious mass murderer (Val Kilmer) and subjected to brutal beatings orchestrated by the sadistic head prison guard (Harold Perrineau), Wade soon realizes he's in for the fight of his life and must become the toughest Felon of them all if he's to survive the block. For what doesnt kill you only makes you stronger. And in state prison, only the strongest will survive.

The movie is extremely grainy, but offers solid detail, especially facial detail. The grain never hinders textures, as the walls of the yard where the prisoners exercise and fight have a roughness to them that adds some realism to the scenes. The cold, gray, unforgiving interior of the prison doesn't offer anything in terms of visual pizzaz, but the transfer holds up well and shows us as much detail and life as the sets allow in 1080p. Clothing looks good, too, with the patches on the prison guard's uniforms standing out as not only colorful against the dark blue backdrop of the sleeve, but in the level of visible detail that makes up the embroidery on the patch and the stitching used to fix it to the sleeve. Likewise, the yellow jump suits worn by the inmates stand out against the mostly mundane set pieces, and the yellow seems a bit brighter as a result. Flesh tones appear accurate and black levels are never poor. Overall, Felon, like The Counterfeiters, offers an extremely grainy image that stays true to the tone of the film. Felon Blu-ray, Audio QualityFelon puts viewers in the slammer with its lossless Dolby TrueHD 5.1 soundtrack. The audio is much more interesting than the visuals, but that doesn't mean it's necessarily leaps and bounds better in quality. Strong bass is palpable from the very beginning as a nice low rumble subtly rattles the furniture of your living room. The audio experience is often immersive in feel. A prison riot in chapter three is a harrowing listen that places viewers in the middle of the prison. The film's powerful score swells and sounds great as it emanates from every speaker with a nice theatrical presence. Sound effects are powerful and impressive. When the rumbling of a heavy prison security door slides open from right to left, the sound flows across the room as it should. Music is often bass-heavy and arrives with a solid low end that adds quite a bit of tension to the movie. Gun shots ring out with power, be they the beanbag rounds fired at the prisoners, or several gunshots from a Ruger Mini-14 heard throughout the film. Dialogue reproduction never became problematic as it was audible and focused in the center. Felon won't set your sound system ablaze, but listeners need not worry that the disc is anything short of adequate, either.
