Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for anyone who likes to be kept guessing. If you loved Bronson or The Pianist, start here.
The mood: Tense.
The pace: Takes its time with its characters, at 2 hr 18 min.
What might put you off: Rated PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

During the last years of Pinochet's military regime, a group of militants from the "Manuel Rodríguez Patriotic Front" plan a prison break of political prisoners, through a tunnel that will take them 18 months to dig.
