Vince Vaughn’s Brawl in Cell Block 99 Raised the Bar for On-Screen Violence
Several films share a unique mix of dramatic and comedic elements, making them stand out as some of the most beloved dark comedies of the last three decades. While Vaughn became famous for starring in major comedies, particularly during the peak of the genre in the early 2000s, he’s recently surprised audiences by taking on more complex and serious roles in darker, more realistic films. Because people are used to seeing him in lighter roles, his 2017 thriller—a surprisingly intense prison drama—really caught everyone off guard and is a must-see.
