Stallone or Arnold both are not
Oscar type actors. Neither the movies they appear in right from the start. But
for the good of the movie industry and the fans alike they make movies that
sell. Escape Plan is one of those and the main reason its working is teaming up
of the big names. And within the first 15 minutes it presents an interesting
plot and grabs the viewer. Towards the ending it is not as pleasing as the beginning
but you will hang in there.
Ray Breslin (Stallone) works for
a security company and his job is breaking out of prisons. I know it sounds
crazy but that’s what he does for a living. And now he is given an assignment
to break out of the most high tech and top security prison called ‘The Tomb’
which he himself has no idea where it’s located. Once inside Ray realize that
things are quite different to what he has signed up for and the only positive
sigh in it is his newly found acquaintance Emil (Arnold) who is equally eager
to get out.
There are no flaws in the flow of
the movie. It’s longer than a usual pop corn action flick but it goes good. And
as most action thrillers the story depends on coincidences that’s always in
favor of the good guys. And excessive and hard to believe knowledge about
everything from the leading roles including engineering, architecture, motor
mechanism, operating a ship, physics and what not. Knowing that these types of
things that make plots like this possible, better not take anything serious. And
everyone walks home and lives happily ever after. The end.
