And my second favourite death is one person who gets a metal bar stuck through their neck, while another person has their throat slit, but in real life, it’s actually not really possible to strike a fatal blow with such a candid flick of the knife, since you’re unlikely to hit the carotid artery. That’ll take a long time to set in casts, and how will he use the toilet in the meantime? There’s also a hilarious takedown when Shen breaks both arms and both legs in one particular baddie. Plus, there’s a lot of sidekick baddies whose names are instantly forgettable, so can only be defined by their facial hair and snarling. The baddies randomly bump off their captives, which is so dumb if you think about it, because it reduces their competitive advantage. He’s meant to be running the operation from the office but… as I say, he’s never seen again. That said, about ‘Fiddy’, basically he has a cameo early on, and is never seen again. In fact, everyone mumbles here, so don’t bother trying to follow the plot unless you have subtitles available, which I didn’t on my review copy. 50 Cent is here to mumble endlessly, again, but then he did nothing else in the second film. Daya is constantly looking like a startled bunny, as if she was about to write a novel entitled, “My Life As A Startled Bunny”*. There’s a flashback to a scene we never saw, in the past, but all it does is see Stallone with dyed black hair. There’s an amusing moment where Dave Bautista, whose often more interested in his silly tattoos than anything else, pulls out a BFG (for DOOM fans), or ‘big weapon’ (F’nar! F’nar!) for everyone else, but aside from that, he just uses his fists. Herzfield lets the punches land, and allows the camera enough time to capture the action before moving on to the next cut. In Escape Plan 3: Whatever The Subtitle Is, there’s actually some decent fight sequences, courtesy of Jin Zhang as Shen, and they’re pretty well directed, too, so you don’t end up with punches happening just off-screen, or too much quick cutting, as you find with a lot of modern movies. set off to get them both back, etc, etc, etc. He’s kidnapped a big boss’ daughter, Daya ( Melise), as well as, along the way, Breslin’s friend, Abigail ( Jaime King). #Review escape plan 3 full#
Yes, they don’t think much of the audience to tie two characters together, so they just use the same full name and add Jr.
The reason for him having a Breslin beef is a tale of revenge which leads back to Stallone’s character in the original Escape Plan, when he did away with Lester Clark ( Vincent D’Onofrio). The baddie this time, is Lester Clark Jr, played by Devon Sawa, who was the lead in Final Destination, I remember. Now it’s just Escape Plan 3, or Escape Plan 3: The Extractors, depending on the territory.ĭevil’s Station is actually an abandoned facility… and for a place that’s abandoned, it strangely has a great deal of functional electric lights. Instead, the prison in question this time, is Devil’s Station, in Latvia, which makes sense of the film’s original full title, Escape Plan 3: Devil’s Station. You know the prison built on a ship in the original film? Now, the plan is to build one UNDER the desert… but that’s just mentioned early on before being completely forgotten about. And I’ll suffer so you don’t have to… unless it’s actually a GOOD film? And when was the last time Sylvester Stallone, as Breslin, made a good film? Erm… possibly The Expendables 2. So why am I watching No.3? Because it’s the conclusion to a trilogy.

However, that film was my worst movie of 2018. Escape Plan 3 comes fairly hot on the heels of Escape Plan 2: Hades, as that came out around this time last year.
