Product: Brute Force [DVD] [1947] (1947)
Rating: 5.0
A thriller as brutal as its title
The Bottom Line:A somewhat forgotten film whose Criterion release should heighten its exposure, Brute Force is a raw and intense film about an prison riot that belies its Hays Code era setting to deliver violence and tension throughout its running length; if you like your films rough and ruthless, get Brute Force.3.5/4
