Thought I already made a thread about this a while back... Nevertheless, this Papillon remake stars Charlie Hunnam and Rami Malek in the lead roles and is directed by Michael Noer.

So this was actually quite alright. I've seen the original film six years ago but haven't rewatched it since. I think that's still the better film though. Here, Hunnam and Malek make a good duo, too.
There was one scene that took me out of it
the escape on the boat, which looked obviously shot in front of a green screen... A real pity because so much else of the film looks very convincing
