But you probably wouldn't be here if you weren't a women-in-prison (WIP) movie fan! I agree with the reviewer who said Caged Fury ranks in the upper echelon of WIP movies, though not quite in the top rank. But it has a lot going for it, including all the usual tropes you'd expect, and a few inventive twists that are nice bonuses.
I always give at least a star for good production values, and despite a handful of flaws this film is solidly put together. As are all the women, some of whom can barely act but a few who are pretty decent. Is it cornball? 100%. Is there gratuitous nudity? 100%. Is it completely illogical and far-fetched? 98%. But there is a smidge of plausibility -- in theory, at least -- that makes it all go down easy.
So, take a load off, enjoy your favorite beverage and/or herb, and let the movie help you escape reality for 90+ minutes. There are certainly less pleasant ways to pass the time.
