ESCAPE FROM ALCATRAZ is probably my favorite prison movie out there. I enjoyed it more than THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, which is also a great movie. Everything in this movie works. The acting is solid, especially Patrick McGoohan as the warden and there's plenty of edge-of-your-seat suspense throughout. Clint Eastwood and Don Siegel are known for making great movies together, and this is no exception. It along with DIRTY HARRY rank as my favorite Eastwood film's. 5/5
