A ragtag team of four tough-as-nails cops are tasked with escorting the notorious gangster Playboy to prison. When he is revealed to be a stool pigeon, the real mob boss, Madame Butterfly, puts a price on Playboy's head. This incites a swarm of hardened inmates to riot across the never-ending maze of cell blocks in pursuit of the bounty. Trapped in the fray with their sleazy charge in tow, the officers must fight their way through a relentless gauntlet of violence armed only with their wits and lethal hand-to-hand combat skills. Featuring a jaw-dropping display of Cambodian martial arts mayhem peppered with irreverently comic antics, "JAILBREAK is 90 minutes of kickass action screen time well served" (Film Combat Syndicate).

Sarah Vincent Sarah G Vincent Views Though more like the women in Robert Palmer videos than fearsome fighters, Madame Butterfly and her crew were the most interesting part of “Jailbreak.” Mar 23, 2025 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed Fans of fight films should be entertained somewhat with the first half of the film but most will eventually get bored with the same fights in a rinse and repeat pattern. Rated: 2.5/5 Apr 17, 2020 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Film Vault Overall, "Jailbreak" is an impressive action film, in a no-nonsense style that reminded me much of "Riki Oh", although with a toned down gore element. Fans of all the spectrum of exploitation are bound to love it. Dec 25, 2019 Full Review S. Indra Sathiabalan The Sun Daily (Malaysia) For what it is worth, it is what it is and fans of this genre should be happy. Mar 12, 2019 Full Review Rob Aldam Backseat Mafia A whirlwind of action, containing some of the best fight scenes you'll see this year. Nov 8, 2018 Full Review Ed Travis Cinapse Good-natured, silly, and surreal, Jailbreak is on a mission to provide audiences with relentless levels of fun. There's a sense of humor throughout that is occasionally as broad and internationally palatable as a Jackie Chan project. Nov 2, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Rosana B Parece que se utilizaram do filme apenas para investir nas cenas de luta, possessiva aplicações das artes marciais, firma se se torna um cansativo para quem não é fã das ações em forma de bales e lutas... Adoro filmes relacionados a presídios, prisões e rebeliões, entretanto soou me pareceu superficial, o toque de humor ameniza e humaniza, mas não sensibiliza e cativa o suficiente... Mas por ser uma produção Camboja, alternativa com todas as suas limitações, dou muito valor... S2 Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/31/23 Full Review Yvonne T Good film. I like it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/08/23 Full Review shing ching w "Jailbreak" is an intense action film that offers non-stop thrills from start to finish. The film's fight choreography is impressive, and the ensemble cast delivers strong performances. The story follows a group of police officers who must navigate a prison riot to apprehend a dangerous criminal, making for a tense and exciting watch. However, the film's characters and plot may lack depth, leaving some viewers wanting more. Overall, "Jailbreak" is a fun and entertaining movie for fans of action and martial arts films." Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/08/23 Full Review Janice W I love this movie!!! Thanks!!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/08/23 Full Review JL2022 Good Movie Yeah 👍🏻 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/08/23 Full Review Audience Member This was pretty brutal and funny.
