The Next Three Days

ActionAdventureCrimeDramaRomanceThriller133 min

John Brennan’s life collapses when his wife is convicted of murder and sent to prison, even as she insists she’s innocent. Russell Crowe is John, a college teacher trying to keep life together with their young son while every appeal fails. Elizabeth Banks’s Lara is wearing down behind bars, and the case against her isn’t going away. When the last legal option runs out, John starts teaching himself a different kind of discipline — passports, surveillance, timing, and prison routines — as he moves toward an escape plan that could cost his family everything.
