Charlie Hunnam's Going To Prison

.
You know, like Jean-Claude Van Damme.

Hopefully very much like Jean-Claude Van Damme! Although I shouldn't get my hopes up, the movie sounds more serious than Van Damme's classic 80s odes to bullets bouncing off his buns-of-steel were - it's an adaptation of Billy Moore's book A Prayer Before Dawn about his real-world experiences in "a barbaric Thai prison" where he picked up Muay Thai boxing in order to protect himself. So kind of Midnight Express...

... meets, well, a Jean-Claude Van Damme movie. 
Sounds good to me! I'm there.
