Synopsis
Three-star General Irwin (Robert Redford) was a prisoner of war in Vietnam and a revered hero in the Persian Gulf and Bosnian campaigns. Now, he has been court-martialed for disobeying orders and he is sentenced to serve time at The Castle, a maximum-security military prison run by Colonel Winter (James Gandolfini), a hard-nosed disciplinarian. A battle of wills soon emerges between the two men, as The Castle's prisoners and guards find themselves drawn to Irwin's natural leadership abilities. As Irwin inspires the prisoners to find the dignity and pride that they have lost, he threatens Winter's strict regime, leading to a conflict that can only have one winner. From Rod Lurie, West Point graduate and director of DETERRENCE and THE CONTENDER, comes this intense dramatic thriller featuring battles both psychological and military. Stars Redford and Gandolfini, joined by gifted newcomers Mark Ruffalo and Clifton Collins, Jr., give excellent performances as a group of very different military men thrown together into an ugly situation. Filmed on location at the now-closed Tennessee State Penetentiary, THE LAST CASTLE is a hard-edged tribute to courage, honor, and loyalty.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring stuff, 12 April 2009
By Michael J. Townsend - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
One of the best films that I have seen for a long time, must have missed this one as it's getting on a few years.I'm surprised that this film has not been used in Team building or Man Management training, unbeknown to me, it may have.Great acting on all fronts, almost Pantomime at one point, as I felt like shouting boos and hisses for the goodies and the baddies!
That actor Redford has still got it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Generally a good film, 1 Feb 2009
By Mr. R. J. Hammond (Cambridge UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a very well made, well acted & interesting film but its all filmed within the prison and so lacks variaty of scenary. There is little love interest, humour or good music. I saw it on TV. I would have purchased a DVD if it had been available in Blu Ray.
