Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
能把这样沉重的题材拍得如此妙趣横生，拍得如此悬念十足、创意十足，不断反转，真是太难得了。
不尽人意的剧改歌舞片，镜头单调乏味毫无生气，重心都放在了Evan上，但本普拉特确实不适合演高中生了
不错的片子，不过又是讨厌的双重时间线，最后来个反转，男的并没杀人
不尽人意的剧改歌舞片，镜头单调乏味毫无生气，重心都放在了Evan上，但本普拉特确实不适合演高中生了
情感上能理解却没有太好的表现出来，几个角色都很苦，最后黄色马甲串起来三人不知道是不是原著里也有，感觉有些刻意了。
前半小时：剧情再狗血再拉垮，还是对音乐剧毫无抵抗力，五星好评！超过40分钟：流水线的半流行乐审美疲劳，强行升华尴尬到脚趾抓地！一点小建议：看到40分钟妹妹飙完车回家就及时止损吧，2星给Connor颜值和歧义梗。
转场和运镜在吃力地配合着原版音乐剧的音乐和主题，能感觉很多地方影片想要努力表达但力不从心，并不是一次很好的改编。很期待看看音乐剧版是如何讲述这个故事逻辑的。
现实向这一面拍得还行，就是不够紧凑，有点拖
拍的差了一点，但是题材和内容其实都很不错，顺带对现在的所实行的制度有一种批判的态度。哎，不管怎么样，人家是可以拍这样的题材的。
后半部分逻辑有点不能接受，不过反转后小屋里佐藤健的戏全片最佳了
不太喜欢看佐藤健演这种小人物，他还是适合演一些B- King角色，和之前《一夜》一样，他演这种角色有种说不出的怪，看人的眼神好凶恶（虽然演的也不是坏人）。
灾难带来的伤痛人只能如同吞下掉落的牙齿被迫忍受、平息，而对于人为伤害则会选择牙龈咬出血也要复仇。悲痛之至，当有进击的对象时就会不顾一切完成破灭。
还行啊 只有经历过灾难才会理解吧 还有关乎国家体质的问题
阿部宽的演技真不错！
Just hold on and keep going.
前一小时我简直哭不停
反省政府和社会问题，关心弱势群体，情节感人。
有点看到不耐烦，不如音乐剧 @ AMC Fresh Meadows
音乐剧不会也是这样吧？这电影确实没啥意思，主角的错误很难被原谅，观众怎么可能因为你有心理问题就宽容你呢？
不知道为什么要唱，出戏得要命。Kaitlyn Dever 真的好可爱好可爱啊！AA跟摩尔阿姨对戏那一场，仿佛还是逊色了一点点，也可能只是角色气场的不一样吧，也可能只是因为我更喜欢摩尔阿姨的唇纹。
