It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Lock up is the type of action that will make you go "Wow, this is very different, and I love it."the movie is about Frank Leone who is not only a good mechanic, but also has to finish some time. When transferred, he meets a corrupt warden who puts Frank through hell and now he must get his revenge on the warden before he ends up dead. There's so much to say about this movie and sucks this movie is in another movie in the underrated Stallone list, and it just shows once again that critics really don't know what they are talking about and should just leave it to people who are not a bunch of rich snobs who have no life like Leonard Maltin and the razzies. God I HATE the razzies, just wished they blew up, you know.

Lock Up is an prison action melodrama that features Sylvester Stallone and Donald Sutherland. It tells the story of Frank Leone,an auto mechanic that was sent to prison.The rest of the cast includes John Amos,Darlanne Fluegel,Frank McRae and Sonny Landham.It was directed by John Flynn.Frank Leone was sent to prison when he was arrested for beating up the punks and the criminals that killed his mentor.He was sentence to six months at a minimum security prison.But Warden Drumgoole had something against Leone and had a score to settle with that is why he was transferred from a minimum security prison into a maximum- security prison.This led Frank to escape his situation by becoming a one-man army ala Rambo.This is definitely one laughable action melodrama without the intention of being one.Everything was alright until Leone decided to become Rambo in the end.Too bad that producers never gave a green light to shoot a Rambo 4 during its theatrical release and came up with Lock Up instead.No wonder it got a lot of Razzies that includes Worst Picture as well as Worst Actor for Stallone and Worst Supporting Actor for Sutherland.In the end,it was one forgettable movie.

an action film. one who can be a surprise for many viewers. and a Stallone performance who can change many old verdicts about him. short - a place. an its rules. a fight with many arms.a splendid character by Donald Sutherland and an interesting mixture of emotion, action scenes, lesson about life purpose. far to be sentimental, with maybe one memorable scene, maybe not remarkable - it is not Rambo or a classic - but different by a lot of films from same genre. and that is its basic, fundamental virtue - the desire to create a simple story , heroic and touching, who gives chance to discover few not bad characters . a decent film. far to classic recipes of genre.

Like Shawshank, but less touching and more muscles and darker.It hits the right notes, but the warden seems a bit too sadistic. How could such a tyrant ever get to be in a position of authority in cahoots with a whole bunch of guards and prisoners without ever being found out? This makes the whole thing seem a bit far fetched, which it is, but hey, that's entertainment.Otherwise a good ride. The ending could have been better - he should have broken back into his cell instead and gone "Huh? What's all the fuss about?". That would have been more awesome than the over the top scene at the end which would have landed him with a few more years jail time in reality!Probably Sly's best. But that ain't saying much.
