If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

I've never seen a show that has been cancelled at a worse time. The way season 2 ended was awesome and I was so looking forward to season 3 but 'ey.The reason I watched this is because Jimmi Simpson, huge fan of It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia and I wanted to see him in more stuff so I checked this out and it is....AWESOME. I was always looking for another prison show after Prison BreakIt took a while to like the characters, especially Ray, but they grow on you eventually.The ways the runners escape are very entertaining, it's the thing I looked forward to the most. I like how Jules hasn't got an over-the-top computer set-up either like Garcia in Criminal Mind for example, makes for a nice change. This shows feels a lot more earthy and real compared to other criminal catching shows like NCIS/Criminal Minds etc.The whole '1 month of your sentence per escaped criminal you catch' is very cool too.

I think this show is one of the best shows i have watched in a long time. I could empathize with all of the characters. The actors were brilliant and the script writing is even better. I just cried a little watching that last episode, not because of what happened, but because of that (expletive) cliff hanger. How hard is it to do a feature long episode to sum things up? I mean... What like.. Who can i contact about this? I know they are just going to either ignore me or give me a stupid reason but i need justification for this. Jeez i sound mental. But seriously though. Just one more episode is all they had to do the sum things up. I think i am going to have to start watching the last episodes of series before the first one.

I started watching this series after reading the good reviews, but IMO this could have been way better. The plot is good but the characters are not developed enough according to me, I read someone comparing it to Prison Break. Prison Break had an interesting lead character, an Extraordinary Engineer in a prison, supported by other really well written and acted characters. Unfortunately, I feel Breakout Kings to have a tad too many characters, like I don't even see the point of having the Prisoners they choose, and non of them is strong enough to hold a viewer. I hope this review is useful for others and they can save some time :)

You need a criminal to catch a criminal - It sounds good? Well, I have watched many criminal, action TV series, and I must say this one isn't up to it's level, because the idea of criminal cons catching the ones who escaped from jail is pretty awesome. But lack of acting and writing, it fails there. We have a situation where there are cons who are "masterminds" in their field but aren't so smart in their acting roles, it looks like they are picked from the jail randomly. I have watched 5 episodes, and so far am not planing watching second season, because it doesn't appeal to me so much as it usual do from other shows. I would recommend better writing, role playing, more intense catching cons who are escaped, better inside into U.S Marshall life's, and more action drama into series. The rating of it self on IMDb shows how structural and liking this show is. I would rate it 6/10
