Viewers like it. An edge-of-your-seat and dark romance film, best with a partner and on your own. Life seems perfect for John Brennan until his wife, Lara, is arrested for a 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.
“An exhilarating edge of the seat thriller.”A viewer review
Heads up: some violence, some strong language and some scary scenes.
