Longest Yard, The

When former NFL player Paul Crewe is sent to prison, the warden forces him to transform a diverse group of inmates into a football team.

Unlikely teammates, the convicts unite when they find out who they are playing: the guards. With the help of fellow inmates Nate Scarborough and Caretaker, Crewe promises the cons a chance to exact revenge in a bone-crushing showdown where anything goes.
