  1. 60
    A cryptic and unsettling film.
  2. The cruelty of the law has been better demonstrated with news stories, and unless you're a Californian with two strikes against you, I don't know why you'd want to do this movie to yourself.
  3. Claustrophobic and overwrought, Jailbait is an unpleasant excursion into gay panic mitigated somewhat by performances that are hard to shake.
  4. 25
    I wouldn't have thought it was possible to make a prison picture as utterly boring as Jailbait.
