Joe K @joe_klunder May 4, 2026 I liked this film. Claire Danes did a great job. Ebert even gave it 3/4 stars. I think that saying Thailand is like this is untrue, even when the film was made about twenty years ago. The legal system is not nearly as corrupt as portrayed in the film, and there was an official complaint about this. Still, a good variety of actors. I enjoyed this film.

I was frustrated with the contrived drama, but the premise of oblivious drug smuggling was interesting. The true story could have been better made, but the legal case was dumbed down when that was the only part that was interesting. Their suffering in jail was only of interest up to a point. RUS.

So amazing that Clair got banned from the Phillipines for complaining about the roaches, flies, hot weather and the nasty environment! I give her props for dealing with all that! The movie is incredible though! See more Mladen K @RT18352029 Oct 13, 2023 Claire Danes gave this movie a life. Story about friendship and sacrafice! Great acting and great story, not like Midnight express with all the horror scenes in it. And the end is worth watching this movie....

But these 2 girls get caught with smack at the Thailand airport and are stuck in prison. The crux is supposed to be Danes' gift to her friend at the end...but it doesn't hit like it should.
