The Condemned (2007)
7/10
Great Guy Flick!
10 September 2021
This one won't win any serious awards and it's not for your mother, but if you're into solid guy-flicks, then this picture is for you. Steve Austin does an excellent job playing a hunted criminal (as does the rest of the cast), and while the story is a bit of a stretch it also has a fantasy element to it, which compensates.

Don't think that you're watching a pure fantasy though, because actions have real-world consequences for the characters in this film and their change of mood as the violence progresses speaks to a human element that is largely missing from similar efforts. Simply put, this movie has a heart and a soul! Seriously.

Watch Steve Austin (awesome name, BTW) and his fellow condemned prisoners fight for their lives, Colosseum style, but pop some corn and get your soda first. You won't want to get up for fear of missing something!
