Shot Caller
Law Abiding Citizen
Shawshank

Shot caller because it's a sobering reality for you. One fuck up and you could be in deep shit. And prison isn't anything to be fucked with depending on where your sent. If you don't join something your alone.
Cuz you drive drunk every day like the guy in shot caller
 
So shot caller's pretty good? I've seen clips but not the actual movie. Anyways I picked blood in blood out. I would have also picked American History X but I don't really consider it a prison movie
 
no A Prophet in the poll? time to turn in your “Best [x] Movie” ts card

Penitentiary & Penitentiary II also worth a shout.
 
A great one I haven’t seen mentioned yet, is CELL 211 (2009). It’s from Spain. Solid fucking movie, you really need to track it down if you like this genre.

Not a movie, but Oz from HBO was essential viewing for me.
 
in no order.

green mile
con air
american history x
 
The Great Escape is the GOAT
Cool Hand Luke
Escaspe from Alcatraz
 
Not a prison movie but you should add "Bad Boys" with Sean Penn, or do a best Juvenile Hall films poll. Quite a few of those, it would actually make for a good poll.
 
Papillon and The Great Escape both had Stave McQueen in them. Both great movies.
