I saw this movie once and i did not like it. But i missed one point, last time: this movie, even if from an acting point of view is not excellent in some parts, has a clear scope that is breaking the prejudices among different cultures by establishing the rule, often forgotten, that bad and good are in all sides, regardless religions or others.
In this case, the love between a muslim / north african woman and a western man is the key to make us understand that the common sense, the natural love and the affection between two individuals belonging to such different cultures, wins over any kind of stereotypes.

Plot summary
A charming ladies' man, Frank has no intention of settling down. That's until he meets a beautiful and intelligent Arab woman, Sarah, one incandescent night. Their romance takes off and Frank decides to propose to Sarah during a journey in her home country. One night abroad, corrupt Arab police discover the couple in a compromising situation. They provoke an incident that snowballs. As the protagonists try to escape, the police open fire, accidentally killing Sarah. Fearful of an international backlash, the police frame Frank for murder, aided by a crooked American judge, with his own selfish business motives. The judge summons Frank back to the U.S. to serve his unjust sentence. Assaulted as soon as he arrives in prison, Frank is saved by his cellmate Ayman, a moderate Muslim convert who unwillingly enrolls him in the powerful gang of Muslim fundamentalists he uses for his own protection. Desperate to prove his innocence, Frank resorts to breaking out of prison to seek revenge on those who destroyed his life.

The message is precious
Justice
Being right, does not always mean you are being treated that way. Or that others will accept that you are right. Not in the justice system, not when it comes to police or prison system. But knowing yourself that you did nothing wrong ... well it may help. With your own inner peace, with your connection to whatever and whomever you believe in.
Now in this case, we have to find out what happened and what lead to our main character to be imprisoned. Quite the cast this has assembled. And while the ending may be a bit overdramatic and the movie is a bit convoluted - it still sort of works if you let it. It also may show a side to certain religions you may not have seen that way. Yes there still are some cliches, but that doesn't mean there are also other things that are more subtle and detail orientated.
Still the ending bugs me quite a bit ... maybe you have a different view - or think this is overrated anyway.
Beware ROBOTS
When the ratings are split between 10's and 1's (nothing in between),then you know something fishy is going on. A helpful hint for those looking for the truth, refine your ratings search to the middle ratings. You won't find any bots, cast members or "paid for" reviews in there.
