Years after three friends vacation in Malaysia, it is discovered that the most docile of them never made it out of the country. He is being held and scheduled for execution on drug charges. His lawyer tries to convince the two remaining friends to come to Malaysia to share his sentence and spare his life.
A great "what would you do" story combined with excellent performances, especially by Phoenix, make Return to Paradise one of the best dramas of 1998. A great ending, too.
Directed by Joseph Ruben. |
