ridiculous rating

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Blistering performances.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Again I was not thinking much of it, didn't even know DJ was the instigator. Wonderful amazing strength from those young felons, and amazing heart and soul from all officers. That's what life is all about, courage patience strength persistence and above all don't you ever give up you dreams.And you DJ I always liked you as an actor, now I understand why,you for real man.Peace

It was quite refreshing to see a positive view of young people who made bad decisions. Contrary to a previous review these kind of programs work when the instructors deal with not only the physical aspects but also the need for a psychological transformation. Teaching anyone how to just obey orders without breaking down and healing the reason they weren't in the first place is bound to fail. Most "boot camps" teach how to obey orders while there then expect the person to change when released. The original disrespect for order is never discussed. I enjoyed this image.

There is no research covering 20 years that indicate that Boot Camp programs for juveniles reduce recidivism. Almost all jurisdictions have abandoned these programs because they are ineffective over the long term and the liability of the injuries inflicted by staff.Hey rock "can you smell what I am cooking?"

Excellent documentary. I am happy to see a program of this nature succeed. Do not let Donald Trump see this. He will want to cut the funding.Hopefully these young men will be able to turn their lives around. I did not know that the Rock was a graduate of this program. It certainly did not do him any harm.
