Als sein Bruder Lincoln (Dominic Purcell) unschuldig zum Tode verurteilt wird, plant Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller) die unmögliche Flucht. Er lässt sich verhaften, um in dieselbe Haftanstalt zu kommen und mit Lincoln auszubrechen. Der Plan gelingt, doch der Ausbruch war erst der Anfang. Jetzt sind die Brüder die meistgesuchten Männer Amerikas und werden bis über die Grenzen der Vereinigten Staaten hinaus gejagt. Nach einem missglückten Deal landet Michael in Sona, einer berüchtigten Gefängnis-Hölle in Panama, und Lincoln wird freigesprochen. Doch er lässt nichts unversucht, seinen Bruder Michael zu befreien. Der harte Weg zur Freiheit ist mit tödlichem Verrat, versteckten Dollarmillionen und einer finsteren Regierungsverschwörung gepflastert. Michael - zusammen mit der Frau, die er liebt, und einer Bande hartgesottener Krimineller - muss es schaffen, die Company" zur Strecke zu bringen und vor allem am Leben zu bleiben, bis zu dem Tag, an dem die Flucht endet - für immer.

Nutzerkritik gudaulin zur diesen Serie (1)

Prison Break (2005) 

Englisch Arguing with a cult is difficult and pointless. Prison Break had the reputation of being a top-notch series for all generations and it achieved worldwide success comparable only to the series Lost. To objectively review it is difficult because it is undeniably contradictory, and its quality declines over time - or rather, its weaknesses become increasingly evident. On one hand, it is a fresh idea and a great exercise in screenwriting with plenty of unexpected and audience-attracting twists, with a multitude of fully-fleshed interesting characters portrayed by very decent and often unconventional actors. The series has a generous budget, and the production studio gives it due priority. On the other hand, from the very beginning, it contains two storylines, of which only one is essential. If the screenwriter had stuck with the talented architect who tried to rescue his brother from prison, it would have been good. However, we are in America, and thus he added a storyline about a secret all-encompassing conspiracy in the spirit of classical conspiracy theories. This storyline from the beginning brings the first one down, is highly untrustworthy, and unfortunately gains significance as time goes by. According to the latest research on criminal offenses that ended in execution in the United States, it was incidentally discovered through DNA analysis that 5% of the executed did not commit their crime. It would have been enough to stick with a judicial error and not push too hard. That would not have diminished the attractiveness of the series and it would be much "purer." Additionally, all the miraculous last-second rescues and unexpected twists that are out of this world eventually become tiresome and boring. The series increasingly resembles a beautifully wrapped Christmas gift box, where the viewer unties the luxurious ribbon and it increasingly crumbles, and when the package is finally triumphantly unwrapped, there is another one just as carefully wrapped inside. The creators squeeze money and try the trick with the wallet on a string, constantly teasing and not allowing the viewers to catch it. I admire all those who have enough time to enthusiastically consume so many episodes. If I evaluate the series as a whole, I have to deduct one star from my original 4-star rating. Overall impression: 65%. ()
