View in Flikflix

Inspired by Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson's own experiences with the law as a youth, this documentary captures the lives of incarcerated young men who are granted a second chance through a one-of-a-kind boot-camp program. Featuring appearances by Johnson at the facility as a new 'platoon' arrives and at their graduation reception at the end of the camp, the film chronicles a harsh, uncompromising process in which drill sergeants push inmates to their limits, encouraging them to learn from past mistakes and become constructive members of society--who are substantially less likely to return to prison.
