| Daily StarAndy LeaIt's the performances that really carry this film. Cole's intense portrayal marks him as one to watch and rapper English Frank also impresses as the prison's posturing, cod Jamaican kingpin Jake. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerAn engaging, impressively staged revenge drama with a striking central performance from newcomer Joe Cole and a strong support cast ... |
| Empire MagazineAnna SmithA solid revenge thriller in which Cole excels. |
| Total FilmPaul M. BradshawRon Scalpello's brutal debut about a young offenders' institution hammers its messages home with a sock full of snooker balls. |
| CineVueJoseph WalshFeaturing some enjoyable performances and an entertaining revenge plot, it still has just enough about it to keep audiences entertained. |
| The ListTom DawsonThe way the camera lingers on the lividly bruised and battered faces of his characters, plus the clichéd use of slow motion, epitomise the film's limitations. |
| Sky CinemaTim EvansA spare script and lean dialogue lend genuine power to the taciturn youngster's unswervable quest for justice, a single-minded obsession that results in some truly bone-crunching violence. |
| Observer (UK)Philip FrenchThe detail is realistic and it's a decent enough genre piece. |
| User ReviewJordan HA really great revenge action suspense movie that is violent. I liked this movie a lot |
| User ReviewMark DA solid revenge thriller. The acting is incredible throughout. Contains violence, but is done in a way adding to the films storyline and not over doing it for the sake of violence. |
