Midnight Express was a classic movie that really showed if you never give up on life, you can get to where you want to be. The story was a harsh one, about a young american who tried to bring some drugs back from Turkey, got caught and was put on jail for a long time in the country.

It was based on a true story and I am now very interested to do some research on this. The acting was incredible and way everything played out, the pacing and the ending were all great. This may seem like a movie similar to Escape from Alcatraz but it has a lot more heart and soul and is a lot more involved then just the main character trying to get back home.

If you are looking for a movie with a strong story, great characters and a film that will grasp your interest, check this one out.
