The Escape of Prisoner 614
It’s not surprising that a debuting filmmaker whose biggest claim to fame is inventing an apparently hugely successful website dubbed whatthefuckshouldimakefordinner.com would produce an effort as trivial as Zach Golden’s The Escape of Prisoner 614. Clearly influenced by the Coen brothers (the debt acknowledged in the press notes, although they really push it by also referencing John Ford), this satirical, modern-day Western induces a few mild chuckles but mostly wastes the talents of its cast.
Nearly managing to prop up the wobbly proceedings through the sheer force of his presence, Ron Perlman gives his all to his role as a hard-driving, corrupt sheriff who has little use for his two weaselly deputies Jim Doyle (Martin Starr, Silicon Valley) and Thurman Hayford (Jake McDorman, American Assassin). The physically imposing actor even manages to make a line like “I just don’t like having my budget reduced!” feel utterly menacing.
