      When the minister is heading to the prison, the car he is driven in is shown as an Audi A6 (1997) from the front, when arriving to the prison the car is shown from behind, but this is an Audi A8 (2005) model.

    Good flick
    Good movie, well worth seeing.

    Great idea for a movie, apparently the Yanks are going to remake it.

    I think that will be good too, if they polish this movie up well, it will be even better.

    New scariest movie prison dude ever in the halfwit enforcer.

    Fair bit of action, pretty tense at times, even the wife or girlfriend will enjoy it as it's very easy to follow, even with the subtitles.

    Not for kids, but there is nothing in here teenagers haven't seen before.

    Got to fill in some more lines ffs. Is that enough?
