former brat pack actor and all round pretty boy rob lowe star in a film set in a high security american prison . i have a gut feel his character be go to be popular for all the wrong reason like tobias in the first series of oz and but proximity isn ` t that kind of film and it more like a man on the run film like the fugitive . it also make a nod to the theme of punishment and justice with james coburn put in a cameo a the spokesman for a justice for victim pressure group but any intelligent discussion on how society should treat criminal be completely ignore a the film degenerate into tired old cliche of shoot out and car chase .
