Sinopsis
Un grupo de soldados renegados roba un arma química y toma la antigua cárcel de Alcatraz con 81 turistas como rehenes. Su líder, un general del ejército muy condecorado, pide 100 millones de dólares para entregárselos a las familias de los soldados muertos en operaciones secretas llevadas a cabo por el ejército. Un equipo de élite y un recluso, que en su día pudo huir de Alcatraz, y que conoce los pasadizos que pueblan la prisión, tratarán de evitar que una gran catástrofe se produzca.
