About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a fast, early-2000s action ride set in a futuristic prison with lots of gunplay and brawls; Not for you if you need realism, strong acting, or originality like Point Break.
Pros: energetic shootouts; decent fight scenes; easy action watch | Cons: convoluted story; cheesy clichés; uneven acting
