Escape Plan **

directed this Action/Thriller. Watch Preview. Cast: Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jim Caviezel, Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, Vinnie Jones, Vincent D'Onofrio, Amy Ryan. Rated R for violence and language throughout. Running time is one hour and fifty-six minutes.

After being deceived and wrongly imprisoned, one of the world's foremost authorities on structural security (Stallone) becomes determined to break out of the ultra-secret, high-tech facility and partners with another inmate (Schwarzenegger) to do so.

I'm not much for emotionalism in films but watching these two as the leads made me wish for just a little on occasion. As the old line goes, 'their acting range goes from A to B'. But when brute force is required, they're just the ticket. This is pretty much what you'd expect if you've seen the trailer, and for action fans that will be enough. There was a little twist at the end I wasn't expecting but there's no way you'd say this film breaks any new ground. I doubt this will be around long so I'd catch it while you can if you're so inclined.

There are no additional scenes once the final credits begin. Screen size is relatively unimportant. Theatres/Times.
