SYNOPSIS
An undercover FBI agent, Sascha Petrosevitch, takes bullets for his buddy, Nick Frazier. Nick figures Sascha for dead until the two are reunited again on duty at New Alcatraz (a hellish, high-tech version of the now-defunct prison).
At New Alcatraz, criminal mastermind Lester is set to be executed. Lester knows the whereabouts of a fortune in gold, but isn’t talking.
With only hours to live, Lester takes a meeting with Sascha, just as corrupt prison official Donny and his gang raid New Alcatraz by helicopter and take Lester and a Supreme Court justice hostage.
