Life seems perfect for John Brennan until his wife, Lara, is arrested for a gruesome murder she says she didn't commit. Three years into her sentence, John is struggling to hold his family together, raising their son and teaching at college while he pursues every means available to prove her innocence. With the rejection of their final appeal, Lara becomes suicidal and John decides there is only one possible, bearable solution: to break his wife out of prison. Refusing to be deterred by impossible odds or his own inexperience, John devises an elaborate escape plot and plunges into a dangerous and unfamiliar world, ultimately risking everything for the woman he loves.
This movie was a great story and a fun ride. Sure it is beyond unlikely that someone would b able to pull this off. However, it is a movie like Taken, Edge Of Darkness and Death Sentence where u find yourself indentifying with the main character and "buying in" because you would want to do the same thing for your loved ones.
I would definitely recommend people checking this out. The tension was great and made it a really enjoyable watch.
