    The heart of the film is in the performances of Danes and Beckinsale after they're sent to prison.

    This is not a fantastic movie. But there's more to it than just an MTV-slickified "Midnight Express" starring two young, photogenic stars.

    An exploitation flick, but without the thrills or cleavage.
