So Jailbreak is usually a success?

Anyone out there who's run Jailbreak want to talk about how it went, things you liked, things you would've done differently, things to watch out for? Sorry if this is old hat to some of you, but I've been curious about that scenario. It does look like a fun, nasty little one shot, but it also looks like it could just bomb if the players didn't get into the right spirit. 

I ran a similar scenario for Call of Cthulhu once, "In Media Res" from The Unspeakable Oath (by John Tynes, I think). It was about amnesiac escapees from an asylum for the criminally insane. I had high hopes for it but it kind of died when we ran it. Could've just been a bad mix of players.
