Fall Movie Guide-The Last Castle

The Players: Robert Redford, James Gandolfini, Mark Ruffalo, Robin Wright Penn. Directed by Rod Lurie.

The Skinny: A court-martialed Army general (Redford) is sent to a military prison for disobeying a direct order from a superior. While inside, he quickly realizes how bad the conditions are, so he rounds up a group of other inmates to combat the crooked prison warden (Gandolfini). Can anyone say Attica…Attica…Attica?

The Bottom Line: Who doesn’t want to see Tony Soprano as an evil warden taking on a rag tag prison group led by The Natural himself? Gandolfini, for one. Apparently, he had to be talked into taking the part and director Lurie told Entertainment Weekly, “He’s so un-Tony Soprano in this film.” Still, we are incredibly curious about this one.

Opens: Oct. 12
