Unremarkable prison-break fare., 17 February 1999
4/10
Author: bux from Tecumseh ok

Palance turns in tepid performances in a dual role, as two brothers, one trying to break the other out of San Quentin. The implausible plot drags to a weak conclusion. . . the only surprise is that this routine fare came from the pen of Jack (Invasion of the Body Snatchers) Finney.
