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.
电影的价值与意义 没有追求的生活有什么意思
精彩纷呈，无论是讽刺社会现状还是电影整体的视听语言，印度版熔炉，但比熔炉更加政治化
印度版辩护人，能拍出这样的电影，至少让那些底层人民看得到一丝曙光。
真相大概从警察说出犯人越狱的时候就知道了，但是丝毫不影响观看。
故事确实不错，各种有背后深意的镜头语言，要是歌舞再少点就更好了
当一名部落男子因涉嫌盗窃而被捕时，他的妻子求助于一名人权律师以帮助伸张正义。
“我们被打只是疼痛一时，认罪却要成为一辈子的小偷。”歧视深藏在每个人心中，当这些人有了权力，暴力只是如期而至。
7/10
不受约束的公权，因傲慢而愚蠢，因愚蠢而傲慢。
有阳光的地方就有黑暗，但敢于直面黑暗，就是勇气，就是干净又卫生...
三星半。不能给太多，怕太骄傲。比较商业片，非常努力让观众能看懂。胜在题材承担着足够的社会性，选角也极具魅力。但是还是逃不过印度片比较夸张的表达方式，还是不太符合个人审美。
重要的不是你有什么才能，多大的才能 而是你用你的才能用于何处
印度这样也真的是无力吐槽，人心有善恶，有的冷淡却无诡诈，有的亲密却多两面，冷静下来，不忘初心，你才能找回自己的路。
最近平顶山刘玉琨事件。。。痛心
很可悲的一件事是，当不公正发生时，低种姓并不能通过任何方式讨回公道，最终还是要依靠高种姓的良心。
无比震撼 终于知道国内不敢上映这样的电影 而是上四海这种电影的原因了 因为“他们”需要的是愚民
第3338-会让人想到印度电影《第15条》和韩国的《辩护人》，也让我想到大学回老家碰见jc局的领导和地痞一起在歌厅唱歌。
除了略显冗长的铺垫和过分伟光正的主角，其他都值得好评。正义真难。
没有歌舞也可以做成商业片，配乐太格格不入了
一个为底层平权的律师对抗体制的故事，题材上确实很敢拍，节奏也算是印度片中比较优秀的序列，只是全片还是没有摆脱印度片的俗套，人物塑造，起承转合，甚至何时起歌舞都计算得非常精准，人物也是比较脸谱化（对于印度演员也有点脸盲），过于伟光正的男主，弱势的底层，邪恶的反派，不过难得的是在本片看到了女性的成长，从开始的忍气吞声到最后敢于向强权申诉，这样的故事确实足够吸引。7.8
