The film is all right but doesn't do the book justice. I particularly hated the bit near the when the prison guard says "Him he'll never change". When in the book he goes into a long speech about how when people get put into prison they start to look after themselves. Definitely worth a remake, I would have Eric Cantona and Paulo Di Canio as the bandits.
