In a story that looks different as the story tells of two Americans who decide to work abroad and vacation may turn into a nightmare soon when they are arrested for smuggling during their vacation in Thailand. Perhaps things turn upside down. Both have been sentenced to 33 years in prison and are desperately calling Yankee Hank, an American lawyer based in Thailand, to find new solutions to the real disaster.

about as thrilling as a long line at customs. The screenplay (is)apparently based on those recorded warnings played in airports... Danes and Beckinsale struggle to bring some conviction to a story sorely in need of it.
