Watched this movie last night, and I gotta say, even though I hate a lot of old movies, this one was fucking beast. It stars Clint Eastwood and tells a true story of 4 men trying to escape the high profile Alcatraz prison. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

100% agree. I saw it on Netflix, and I thought it was some random old shitty movie. I watched it and it's pretty sick.

Yup.
DON'T READ THE SPOILER IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED ALREADY:
I kept thinking they were gonna get caught at some point, especially with those dummy heads, but nope. And lol @ the fuck who pussied out at the last minute.

The movie was based on a true story. They never found out what happend to the prisoners of they even made it land.
I know. It so fucking exciting, especially as it's partly a mystery as to what happened to the men.
Great movie! I absolutely loved it and think you guys would too!
I'm gonna start watching Alcatraz documentaries now and shit. It got me hooked.

I've made a powerpoint presentation for my class once about Alcatraz last year. Pretty damn exciting.

There's a TV Series I watched a couple years back called Alcatraz that you may or may not be interested in.

I'm pretty sure it's a fictional series though, so maybe not. I still thought it would be worth linking none the less.
I loved that old ass movie. Maybe one and only old movie I have watched.
I remember buying this on DVD before it was on netflix. Brilliant movie. I love prison escape/violence movies.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'm going to give it a watch this weekend or next weekend. I'll update on what I think about it.
@c0nnexion same here!
@mlami yup! Good luck and do let us know!
one of the all time classic movies, still has a lot of rewatchability in my opinon !
My parents took a trip to Alcatraz island when they went to NY. There's tours now.
This place has fascinated me for a while so I've done so much research.
The guys who escaped could've just been walking amongst regular civilians.
