I was browsing through Amazon Prime options and stumbled on this, giving it a watch based on the summary alone. Frank (Christopher Soren Kelly) is stuck in a fully automated prison cell, with Howard (Jesse D. Arrow) monitoring him by camera. His only escape is through his memories as he relives portions of his last day out of prison, and conversations with Gabby (Cassandra Clark) at a coffee shop, before getting shot and imprisoned.
It's notable that this film was made with a very low budget ($125k) and little-to-no CGI. I liked this film for what it is, which was a simple psychological thriller with a small cast and a lot of deception along the way. And I think that basic storytelling concept makes this a good film, and the cast ultimately made it a pretty great film. I was sold on it, and although it drags a little bit, I think it's worth a watch. 8/10
