Movie Review #2: Escape Plan

Location: Cathay Cineplex, Johor Bahru City Square
Wed, 16 Oct. 2013

Enjoy movie alone? No problem.
The actual plan, I wanna watch it at GSC Pelangi Leasure Mall since that was the last day GSC operations there, also last GSC cinema in Johor Bahru. But due to some unexpected circumstances, location changed.
 

Escape Plan starring Rambo and Terminator action heroes, Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Stallone as Ray Breslin, spent his life as a professional jail-breaker under Federal Bureau of Prisons in order to test maximum security facilities of each prisons built.

A successful breakout depends on THREE things;
1) knowing the layout
2) understanding the routine 
3) and help from outside or in

However, Breslin being trapped after agreeing to take on one last job which escaping from a high security and high-tech prison called The Tomb. The Tomb is a private prison for the 'disappeared' among terrorists, warlords, and high-level gangster. The Tomb also has been built based on Breslin's own book, which in the other words, no one can break out of it. Inside the deal, Breslin given a 'code' and 'contact person' in case things goes wrong. Did the 'code' really have in function?

Breslin was 'kidnapped' with unmarked van, drugged, and imprisoned without any knowledge of his location. Inside The Tomb, Breslin be friends with Emil Rottmayer, Schwarzenegger, and together, they begin to explore their limited hope for escape, against the prison's warden, Hobbes.

I enjoyed the movie, and great to see Stallone and Schwarzenegger partner together on organizing their 'escape plan'. Level of violence also acceptable to be watched.
