Plot Summary
When a soldier returns from Iraq and takes a job as a prison guard, he quickly realizes that the only thing distinguishing the prisoners from the “screws” (British slang for guard) is who holds the key. Based on the bestselling book and the real-life experiences of Ronnie Thompson – who spent seven years working in some of England’s toughest prisons – Screwed is an eye-opening exposé of the corrupt underworld of prison guards … A dark realm where brutality, gang affiliations, drug trafficking and big pay-offs rule. But ultimately, being on the right side of the bars doesn't always mean sticking to the rules.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Everything is too extreme. But there's a core of honesty here.
Rotten: The filmmakers lose their bottle about 45 minutes in.
Rotten: The violence is unrelenting, scene after scene of it, and spectacularly unenlightening: like watching rottweilers gone feral.
Rotten: Reg Traviss's overlong thriller spews out cliches from the off.
