Short summary

Every inmate's 6-digit prison number ends with '444', the title of Jay-Z's album.

The head inmate of the prison is Mr. Carter. His name is a nod to Jay-Z's real name, Shawn Carter.

Over the radio, a report lists the date of the inmate's escape as 'September 4th', a nod to Beyoncé Knowles' birthday (Jay-Z's wife).

    I won't go into the plot but I'll just say that the frustrating thing about this film is that it isn't a full blown movie!

    Jay-Z does it again!

    As soon as I saw Susan Sarandon's face I knew I was in for something deeper than just a music video. This is more like a portrait into the horrors of the U.S justice system, for people of all races.

    Everyone gives a stellar performance, but the banter between Edi Gathegi and Jonathan Tucker is classic.
