Description

In this tense, twisted thriller of passion and betrayal, two men face the decision of a lifetime. They had been three buddies, living the life in Malaysia, a life of drugs, sex and freedom. Sheriff and Tony return to America, but Lewis decided to stay on. Two years later, a lawyer arrives in New York. Lewis is rotting in a prison cell - sentenced to die because of them. The only way he can be saved is if Sheriff and Tony return to serve three years in a living hell. Tony is a successful architect, about to be married; Sheriff a cynical limo-driver with nothing to lose. Why should they care? One woman must do whatever it takes to persuade them they must care, and she only has five days to do it. But as the day of execution draws closer, no one can predict what fate has in store for those who stay and those who leave and Return to Paradise.

    This movie makes you think. Think about your moral compass, what a "friend" really is and if you really have any. It also begs the question of how much the media should play into a persons sentence or how much they do, for that matter. Overall, this was a wonderfully acted film that deserved more recognition than it will ever get. It's a must see.
  • One of the greats!

    This is a very emotional, heart wrenching film! Keeps you on the edge of your seat! A lesson to all who chose to do unlawful activities in a foreign country. Eventually, you will have to pay the price if caught.
