Alice(Claire Danes) and Darlene(Kate Beckinsale) have been best friends since forever and after they graduate they decide to take a trip to Thailand. Due to a incident, they meet a young attractive mysterious stranger who invites them to go with him Hong Kong for the weekend. But at the airport, Alice and Darlene are mistaken for drug smuggling heroine and they are sent to prison. Now it's time for ultimate survival and true friendship. This was a pretty good movie, i've seen it a couple of times and after a while you notice that they are a few holes in the plot but the movie still keeps you entertained. Claire Danes did a great job as usual, she is a great actress. I would give Brokedown Palace 8/10

Brokedown Palace (1999) D: Jonathan Kaplan. Claire Danes, Kate Beckinsale, Bill Pullman, Lou Diamond Phillips, Jacqueline Kim, John Doe, Daniel Lapaine. Emotional, dramatic film about two girls vacationing in Thailand who get falsely arrested for narcotics, then get represented by a rather eccentric, obsessive attorney. Well-acted and well-paced, however the overload of soundtrack songs makes it seem like you're watching MTV. RATING: 7 out of 10. Rated PG-13 for violence, drug use, and strong language.
