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.
让黛伯拉梅辛演是不是更生动一些啊……蛮喜欢正式演之前索金整得那些“小段落”。
一句"Lucy,I'm home"不再是幽默开场
Javier真的太帅了，don't mess with Cuban，最后直接打给Hoover护妻也是OMG！但是还是败给男人的天性，Nicole演技太棒，感觉这个戏把他两都拍的好年轻，磨皮十级的感觉；虽说夫妻两的关系本身就有点问题。但整个电影看上去还是乱糟糟的，让人搞不清楚到底在探讨夫妻关系，还是艺术家对于演艺细节的执着，抑或是另一部女性主导女性心理片
妮可基德曼太迷人了，这是影坛常青树，小细节处理得真好。
一个简单的婚外恋故事非得绕来绕去不好好讲。
艾伦索金不适合当导演
索德伯格再次证明90分钟足够。少说废话多闭嘴，这是最值得当下好莱坞学习的部分。
開了一個「當代凶線」的頭，最後高開低走，後段「驚慄片」重頭段落拍得很洩氣。新貓女演技不錯，期待她在大作的表現。
妮可基德曼太迷人了，这是影坛常青树，小细节处理得真好。
戏中戏。戏外正剧，戏中喜剧，考验演技。但是为什么每一个人说台词的时候都像是机关枪一样快，都赶着去投胎吗？
The worst thing you can do is being messy and boring at the same time. 在整个female narration 里最powerful的那一刻是rejection的那一刻，这是连Sorkin的逃不开的桎梏
3.5 索德伯格拍这种毫无压力。最后一幕差了点。
一般般，比较少见的反映智能电子产品正面的设定。虽然只有不到90分钟，主线简单支线却很散，部分运镜还可以。床戏裸露真的可有可无，只当福利。互相偷窥神TM换来个莫名其妙的见义勇为。还以为结局要和肥宅在一起呢，结果就是一个挡刀的路人甲。记住两个知识点：钉枪绷住当枪使，杀人能治社恐症。
抑郁症+白作+女quan师+黑人男友+挑战quan威=流量密码？烂片！反胃！
至少比同题材的《窗里的女人》好。结合当下疫情和人工智能写出了一部短小精悍，情节跌宕的作品。7.5分
看得很过瘾。而且这种90分钟的电影已经很少了，所以很珍惜。
美国导演体制化后以后的众多顽疾之一 ——对世界无话可说无表达欲之下，只能一天到晚找各种题材改编，以至于当年戈达尔吐槽，拍个圣经故事都要找小说来改编。
尽管针妮脸已经僵硬成这样了，还是很让人共情啊，求求艾伦·索金别再导演了，专心写剧本就可以了！
6/10 索金又回到了《茉莉牌局》的水平，不如拍个迷你剧吧。
剧场五天+闪回 明暗线交织 最后一场戏所有的铺垫汇集将人拉回现实
