Every single scene is brilliantly written, filmed, edited, and acted.
Efficient film that is a master of storytelling with visual cues and camera movement instead of expositional dialogue. Beautifully crafted.
This is a classic film with a lot of excitement specially because it is based on a true story!! Great watch!! Oh and Clint Eastwood
In my opinion, movies based on a true story always have the edge, and this one’s no exception.
A fantastic escape story based on a true story and filmed on location at Alcatraz
Wspaniały film. Jest bardzo wciągający. polecam gorąco
It’s Shawshank redemption and the green mile but slower and not supernatural
Great old film, tension is sustained throughout however it feels as though something is lacking in the way the story is told
The best non-western clint Eastwood movie
The true story of the three men who escaped from Alcatraz, and their mysterious disappearance, put greatly to film with a wonderful cast!
