No pun intended - prison break movies are quite the thing. And you either like them or not. What makes this different is how it is edited. The timeline and the surprises/twists that wait for you around the corner ... any corner that is. Maybe even inside a cell ... or down the stairs ... ah more puns, I love it.
That all being said, the movie is really well made and especially acted. The amount of talent in front of the camera is quite astonishing ... well casted to say the least. And all men are needed - yes this is a mens movie. I mean it is a prison for men, so it makes sense. One noteable exception ... though one that is the motor for the story too. You understand the sentiment of Brian Cox ... and why he does what he does ... but also why he doesn't do what ... well you'll understand once you watch. Just do not read too much before watching it ... it will elevate the viewing pleasure.
