Stan Minton, a wealthy real estate con man, is sentenced to prison for fraudโbut heโs terrified of what awaits him behind bars. Desperate to survive, Stan hires a mysterious martial arts guru who trains him in the deadly art of self-defense, transforming him from a nervous weakling into a lean, mean, prison-proof machine.
Once inside, the new and improved Stan shocks everyone by refusing to be intimidated. His fighting skills earn him respect, and before long, he becomes the unlikely peacekeeper of the yard, bringing order to chaos and uniting rival gangs under his unorthodox leadership.
But Stanโs path to redemption hits a wall when he uncovers a corrupt scheme involving the warden and a plan to tear down the prison for profit. Now, with the clock ticking, he must risk everything to expose the truth and protect the inmates he once feared.
Hilarious, outrageous, and oddly heartfelt, Big Stan is a prison comedy that punches hard and hugs harderโproving that courage can be learned, even behind bars.
