   Critics consensus Escape from Pretoria doesn't quite do justice to the fact-based story it's dramatizing, but that lack of depth is offset by suitably gripping jailbreak action. More reviews on Rotten Tomatoes

   Does escape from Pretoria work?

   • For the most part, Escape From Pretoria works well, but it's a shame Annan didn't take more time to dig into the ordinary men who made this extraordinary escape. We haven't had a good prison escape drama in years. Escape from Pretoria isn't perfect, but with an effective pace and gripping sequences, it works. Like those classic prison movies.

   Is escape from Pretoria a tense political prison thriller?

   • Excessive narration and clichéd dialogue distract from any potential for tension, meaning that Escape From Pretoria only realises its potential in the final minutes. Tense political prison thriller has some violence, language. What ensues is a familiar prison-escape tale with not enough story or tension to really grip.

   • Once the plan is set in motion, the film itself feels unlocked: As a re-eenacted chapter of anti-apartheid history, “Escape from Pretoria” may not feel entirely authentic, but it knows its prison-movie terrain, from Alcatraz to Shawshank, inside out.

   Filter by Rating: 7/10. A good old-fashioned and exciting prison break movie. MOscarbradley 13 May 2020. "Escape from Pretoria" will never win any Oscars but this heartfelt, social-conscious thriller, based on a true story and set in a South Africa under Apartheid, is a lot better than I thought it was going to be.
