One of my all time favorites.

Good concept, poorly executed.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Americans are most tastelest people in the world. the is good

Yes, such tremendous old school starts like Stallone and Schawrzenegger can do anything a molten gold - even this rather usual and modest flick they turned into an exciting jailbreak action thriller thanks to their excellent ensemble and decent delivery. The plot is very trite and very banal to say the least, but it is very well executed and the tension is palpable. Jim Caviezel is also a great choice as a main baddie, as he is elegant, posh, smooth and rather languid, which makes him even more ominous. Sam Neil is a nice choice, but more screen time had to be given to this awesome actor and that'd make it better by far. Sadly, that was not happen. 50 Cent is generic but not so bad as some claimed, he does his job well. All in all, good film for one watch.

Romanian screenwriter Lucian Ciuchita has filed a criminal complaint against five Hollywood production companies, two directors and two screenwriters.Mr Ciuchita accuses the companies and individuals of stealing his script and ideas. He claims that Escape Plan (2013), which features Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger, is based on a script he sent to Hollywood a few years ago.Prosecutors in Romania have begun an investigation into the case, the results of which will determine whether they prosecute the producers of Escape Plan.Source: Romania Insider

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! 🕵
