This is the true story about a safe cracker Henri Papillon played by Charlie Hunnam (Sons of Anarchy) who is convicted of murder in Paris in 1931 and sent to colonel French Guiana to face is sentence it is while traveling on the ship he finds himself forming a friendship with an upper class counterfeiter Louis Dega played by Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody and James Bonds no time to Die). The story follows the journey the two men take whilst in prison where they meet some more unsavory characters. It is difficult to go into too much detail about this movie without spoiling some of the story line all I can say this movie shows how fragile the human mind is and how hardened human beings can become when faced with a life or death situation. By the end of this movie I could not help but feel admiration for Henri as in his story he tells of how far he is willing to go in order to become a free man again. For those of you who are lovers of movies about real life events or Bios then this is a must see on Netflix I give these movie a rating of 4 stars this movie does not appear to have had a large budget spent it however this does not take away from how well this movie has been made but only adds to realness of this mans story this movie can be enjoyed by any viewer aged 15 and over.

Great show!
