À propos de ce film

Based on the international best-selling autobiographical books "Papillon" and "Banco," this action-packed true story follows the epic life of Henri "Papillon" Charrière (Charlie Hunnam), a safecracker from the Parisian underworld who is framed for murder and condemned to life in the notorious penal colony on Devil's Island. Determined to regain his freedom, Papillon forms an unlikely alliance with quirky convicted counterfeiter Louis Dega (Rami Malek), who in exchange for protection, agrees to finance Papillon's escape. This film is a thrilling adventure and a powerful portrait of the resilience of the human spirit, even in the face of utter inhumanity.

Notes et avis

Really poorly done. Could not believe what I was watching. How could someone remake a classic like that and screw up every bit of it ? It was Jax Teller on Devils Island . The "actor" who played the Dustin Hoffman part should turn in his actor license.

Good remake. it just seemed smaller than the first. I don't mean shorter in length, however i think it might have been shorter. I mean it just didn't seem as grandiose as the first. However if your a fan if the first this is a must see, and won't disappoint. Very good.

I knew from reading reviews first was more about a journey than a escape movie with action but all in all was better than I thought and Charlie H didn't disappoint !!
