The condemned is a remake of the Japanese classic Battle Royale. Instead of school children having to kill themselves while being watched by the nation the 'condemned' are the 10 most notorious killers or bad guys from around the world who are released on remote island and have to kill each other off within 30 hours.
The last man standing will bereleased. The fights to the death are screened live onto the internet which eventually reaches a viewership of over 40 million. This film is great entertainment and worth a gander."Stone Cold" Steve Austin plays Jack Conrad, an undercover agent who was captured in South America and put on death row in prison. He gets purchased by a television producer as a last minute replacement to take part in a fight to the death. The condemned are all from some countries worst jails and on death row. They are in fact the walking dead and the producer is hoping to make the executions internet friendly.
Vinnie Jones is superb as bad guy Ewan McStarley in this film. This is by far his best role yet in any movie. He has some corker one liners which made me laugh. "Alright! Alright! Don't get over excited my son!" The soundtrack is pretty good as well. I have not enjoyed an action movie like this in a while.

hey i even i think its an amazing movie and a different movie flick unlike others of similar kinds. also the concept is really cool and the movie is a total entertainer. i am a big time fan Stone Cold Steve Austin and his wrestling acts. so i completely enjoyed the movie and Richard Norton's(the stunt men) justice to his stunts. Scott Wiper has done a fantastic job with the direction of the movie and i must say that it is a must watch movie especially if you are a wrestler fan.
