Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Americans are most tastelest people in the world. the is good
Ray Breslin (Stallone) is an expert at escaping from prison. He accepts a job at a high tech prison which is off the grid, i.e. doesn't officially exist. However, Ray is double crossed and is now in a situation where he must escape to survive. The film includes fellow inmate Arnold Schwarzenegger and Vinnie Jones as a sadistic guard. This is not a simple grunt escape film, but develops levels of complexity with twists.The film is an action drama with some thrills. By modern action standards it moves slow so it can develop the story. There is a rivalry banter mixed into the dialog between Arnold and Stallone for those who pay attention.Worth a view for old Arnie and Sly fans. Don't pay too much. Should be a bargain film soon after it goes to DVD.Parental Guide: F-bombs. No sex or nudity.
Yes I know movies are fantasy, and some things must be taken with a grain of salt. BUT, they should be believable anyway. This wasn't, and here's why: I liked the movie right up to the time Ray sticks his head out of the hatch and discovers he's aboard ship. That was the end of it for me. Why? I spent years in the Merchant Marine, and I'm here to tell you, all the Stabilizers in the world will NOT prevent motion on a ship. Maybe in calm waters, but when the sea picks up, motion is always felt. So there's no way all those guys would thing they were on land. That being the case, the movie ended at that point.
Last year, it was The Last Stand and T: Genisys and this year I planned to watch Escape Plan.To me, it seemed like PB series whipped with Lock Up (Stallone facing bright lights) and Face/Off (Remember, Nicolas Cage jumping from the ship?)The two oldies did a fine job - Escape Plan would have been one of the biggest movies of the year if it had been released in the 90's, but unfortunately it is too late. The 90's nostalgia card has already been played in the Expendables movies.An honorable mention of Jim Caviezel - saw him in Escape Plan..forgot that he was the same actor in Monte Cristo! 🕵
