This movie depicts the underground world of prison through the eyes of a Chicano. He goes from a young punk to a leader of a powerful Prison gang. It depicts the life of a young man growing up in prison, and all the changes that he has to go through to survive in Prison. It contains very explicit scenes, that are probably too graphic for younger viewers, but helps to understand prison life, and what goes on inside walls that the normal person will never get to see. Edward Olmos gives a spectacular performance, and also gets credit for directing a very real movie. -Amazon
Anyone seen this movie? please review.

yeah I seen this movie when I was a young kid, before I was even into rap. I can't remember much of it except for a couple of scenes. Its a pretty hardcore movie though.
