When Alice and Darlene get thrown into a Thailand prison for unknowingly attempting to smuggle drugs out of the country, they scream their innocence to everyone whose not listening. With the harsh realities facing them now, their only hope is Bill Pullman, a lawyer they contact to help them to freedom. This film plays better as a television film to scare the crap out of teenagers than a theatrical thriller. The picture, on the whole, is good with a great level of detail and a strong black level.
Colors are generally good but tend to lean toward a more orange tint, especially in flesh tones.
I did notice very little artifacting though with almost zero pixelation. The English 5.1 soundtrack fares better with a fairly convincing sound design that keeps up its involvement throughout. Dialog is nicely presented with a clear range and no masking. Surround effects are discrete and enveloping, especially with the music score by David Newman, which flows smoothly out of the speakers. Direction effects are present in the front, but seem confined to ambient noises and not those occurring on-screen.
