A movie that stars two of the best crops of Hollywood actors, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone, and Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, a world-class act in the rap music industry. Despite including all these superstars, the movie did not garner much patronage in the cinema. To make up for the lost expenses, a sequel, Escape Plan 2: Hades, was produced even though Arnold was no longer present in the cast.
