Review

 

The most wanted man in Wakefield prison is the warden!

Posing as a new prisoner, Brubaker (Redford) discovers vast corruption in a state penitentiary before revealing himself to be the new warden. His personal crusade to bring reform puts him in grave danger, especially when he insists on exposing a series of secret murders that took place years earlier.

Powerful and disturbing, 'Brubaker' won acclaim for its gritty realism and Oscar-nominated screenplay based on the real life story of Tom Murton, the prison superintendent who rocked Arkansas politics when he exposed scandalous abuses and murders in a state prison.

Robert Redford gives an outstanding performance in this gritty but brutal prison drama frought with edge of the seat moments.....Redford stars as Brubaker a new prison warden who first goes undercover as a prisoner to see and experience the bribery,corruption together with the brutal treatment of inmates...It is only when Brubaker makes known his true identity that things really get hot....Redford cleans house but faces the consequences of a tough prison regime with zero co-operation coupled with threats to do harm....Brubaker is straight out of the top drawer with Redford showing his usual unique charisma in his role as Brubaker....watch out for the finale it is worth waiting for.....not to be missed
