Hypothetical Question-What Do You Think Happend To Some of the Inmates?


I think Bad Boys is one of the best prison pictures ever made!

I have known people who work in Juvenal corrections, and they say this movie is very realistic. The acting is so good that it is like watching a documentary. You feel you are there living the life of those trouble youths and the counselors trying to help them.

What do you think the future holds for them after they turned 21? Sadly, not much in my view. There were really no positive influences for these kids and a lot of them seemed to be desensitized to the horror around them. After they left Rainford, what do you think happened to them?

SPOILER BELOW:

After Mick's fight with Paco in the climax, what do you think his punishment was? I think the ending shows that Mick was a fighter, but not a killer. He would probably have had six months added to his time, and would probably have to spend some time, at least three months in Solitary.

First off, why would Mick be punished for the fight? It was self defense, what did they expect him to do..….let Paco stab him to death lol? I think Mick was probably one of the very few who saw his way of living was getting him nowhere since his Rainford experience and decides to turn around after getting released(I would've....not worth it), sorta like Ed Norton in American History X. That seems to be where Mick's narrative was heading even though it still remains unknown what became of this character. Mick's cellmate probably got out or escaped, may have became a professional criminal later on with his Macgyver like talents lol......who knows. Viking(Clancy Brown) I think would've gotten killed just like tweety later on after release, he doesn't seem like someone who would last long in a civilized society.....too much of an ape. I think Paco would eventually get life in prison for a murder/rape later on judging by his actions here, these guys never really change and he's too violent to last in the real world. The rest of them probably in and out of jail until they either die or get killed. The staff would simply retire after a while.

This movie is a work of fiction. How are we supposed to know?
