lastliberal I first saw Cynda Williams in One False Move and i was hooked. She is a raving beauty and can act too. Naturally, I grabbed this DVD as soon as I could.Unfortunately, like Greed, it didn't live up to the potential.The main problem was the lack of real support for Williams. James Russo (you might remember him as Mikey Tandino in Beverly Hills Cop) hasn't really gotten any better in a lead role. he just didn't display any real emotion in this movie. Yeah, he looked energetic enough when he was getting it on with Williams, but she can inspire the best in all of us. Outside of that, he was just a drunken prison guard who liked to beat on people. I am sure there are thousands of those available for casting.The back story for Williams was also weak. It was there, but it just wasn't fleshed out enough.And, the ending. Oh, the ending is a mess. Who in the world could believe that a prison guard with a drinking problem would have enough money to flee to Mexico? What was he going to live off? His looks? I'm not buying it.Watch it for Cynda Williams because there is nothing else here.

pierre nay It is a low-budget movie, but expertly directed: for instance , with few actors and means the atmosphere in the prisons is effectively rendered. The movie in fact consists of three roles only ( the late Victor Argo being seen for very few minutes), but they are all well played. Paul Calderon is quite believable as a slimy gangster. I confess that I did not know Cinda Williams before, and found her very attractive in a sultry way, but also quite convincing. The best however is James Russo, who is really outstanding, using only his gimlet eyes and clenched jaws. *** Spoilers: while you expect Russo to be broken by the death of the loved one, the unexpected but appropriate end helps greatly to make a success of Condition Red

Tall Pall The movie is pretty good but it looks horrible on DVD. All you see is artifacts and blocks. Its was also transfered 4:3 ratio. If you want to see this movie get the VHS instead. The DVD looks like a movie recorded off TV in EP mode

pkeyes I saw this movie last night thinking it may be a good watch. I was wrong. Maybe in Finland can a prison guard practically walk out of a maximum security facility with a female prisoner "wrapped around his arms"(his girlfriend as well...) The gun fight at the airport was amusing. All that gunfire and not one shell casing could be seen from the guns or on the floor. Plot 2 - Action 4 - Acting 1. James Russo, time to get a real job.
