The Condemned (DVD)
The Condemned was not as bad as most people made it out to be and in my opinion was one of WWE’s better box office releases. I do agree that this movie did scream out Battle Royale when I first read its synopsis, but it did not seem as appalling because these men and women were death row criminals rather than unruly fourteen year old friends and classmates.
Although the plot was very thin, the movie’s antagonist played by Vinny Jones made it worth watching to the very end. He played his role so perfectly that I couldn’t wait for him to get a beat down. His sly mannerisms and malicious demeanor just get all under your skin. Steve Austin who was the actual star in the movie did fairly well in his debut film, but it was definitely Jones who stole most of the limelight.
This film is definitely worth a glance if your looking for a good action movie without alot of thinking involved. There are a couple scenes involving female violence that some people frowned upon, so if your sensitive with those types of things, I’d probably pass on this one.
Synopsis:
An adrenalin-charged action thriller, “The Condemned” tells the story of Jack Conrad (Stone Cold Steve Austin), who is awaiting the death penalty in a corrupt Central American prison. He is “purchased” by a wealthy television producer and taken to a desolate island where he must fight to the death against nine other condemned killers from all corners of the world, with freedom going to the sole survivor.
