    I've become aware that Paul Haggis's 2010 film THE NEXT THREE DAYS is about Russell Crowe breaking his wife Elizabeth Banks out of Allegheny County Jail

    It's shown to some degree in the movie "The Next Three Days", the way being cut off completely from your people affects everyone.

    Gave up, but I feel it lies somewhere in the spectrum of Law Abiding Citizen (the movie I rewatched last night) and Two for the Money (the movie I decided to rewatch today). The answer is not The Next Three Days.

    I’d have The Next Three Days on here, probably the movie with the most recognizable Pittsburgh locations and most of them make geographic sense and the stuff that doesn’t also makes sense, like I get why the Mon-Fayette would be the highway you’d close and film every highway scene on

    Investigating & prosecuting rape & rape liar cases is challenging cuz almost always everyone shades truth, or outright lies. Investigators & prosecutors learn to let evidence & testimony guide. As movie lawyer said The Next Three Days, what I believe doesn’t matter, its what I can prove.

    Mark’s Movie Picks: “The Next Three Days” (2010). A thriller about an innocent woman (Elizabeth Banks) who is convicted of murder & her husband (Russell Crowe) who's trying to break her out of prison. He brings in an escape expert (Liam Neeson) to help train him for the complex task. I give it a B+.

    Just watched The Next Three Days movie. Never heard of it - they were showing it on TV. Loved it! Full of suspense and a little bit of heartache.

    Gave The Next Three Days (2010) a rewatch. It's a good movie, but kinda peters out a bit in the final third. Still glad I gave it a second go though.

    Running doesn't work once they have you boxed in. See the movie: "THE NEXT THREE DAYS."

    Watched a baffling Russell Crowe film law called THE NEXT THREE DAYS. Some of the blame sits with me as I was expecting a Falling Down/Taken vigilante vibe about about a man who will do anything to get his wife out of prison.

  • JPV852 @JPV852TMDB reviews · May 24, 2020

    Seen this movie a handful of times over the years, and still holds up so well. A solid thriller with fine performances by Russell Crowe and Elizabeth Banks, and features a great supporting cast in small parts (seems about 5 min. each), including Liam Neeson, Daniel Stern (wish he'd do more straight dramas), Brian Dennehy (RIP) and Olivia Wilde. Some nice suspense-filled moments throughout (the bump key scene still gets me). However, the final scene with detective "seeing" how the crime went…

  • TheCakerBaker @TheCakerBakerTMDB reviews · Jul 3, 2013

    If Paul Haggis is going to keep on making movies, would somebody do us all a favor and sign him up for a basic screenwriting class? I mean, please, this film could be a lesson all on its own on how not to write a decent screenplay. Its all in here: one-dimensional characters, supremely poor pacing, multiple threads that go absolutely nowhere and completely implausible action sequences. And, you know, it's just a B-thriller. It's not like I haven't seen these mistakes time and time again. What…
