Lock Up [DVD]

Everything OK. Thanks

Lets start by saying Lock Up is a very underrated movie. This is one of my favourite movies of Stallone. The story is brilliant and actors are great too. The blu ray quality is good and better than average. Its not the best blu ray that I have seen in quality but for the age they have done a decent job. Some grain here and there in the movie but the detail is good. Anyone should buy this prison movie. Not just Stallone fans. The story will get you hooked. A must

I thoroughly enjoy this movie. Definitely one of Sylvester Stallone's best performances. I first saw this at 5 year's old and loved it, watching it now, I still do. As for "grain", I saw none. The picture is perfect. You have to own this, especially if you're a Stallone fan.

the film is the story of a con who is nearing his time and is due to be released when his past comes back to haunt him in the form of donald sutherland who plays a great character role as a warden who feels he has served a system that in turn betrayed him. Stallone is in an open prison which he returns to only to be taken in the dark of night to a high security prison where, the only thing worse than the inmates are the guards who watch over them and the warden (sutherland) who intends to make sure Stallone never leaves his facility alive, action is of course a given with Stallone but he gives also an emotional performance, the film is as good now as when it was made and would recommend it for the action as well as the performances.

In the same year he escaped from prison with Kurt Russell in Tango & Cash, Stallone was locked-up again in this gritty, grim thriller. Frank Leone is an ordinary man forced into avenging thugs who beat-up his kindly old mentor. He's put in prison for the crime but escapes just before his sentence is up so he can be with the old man at his deathbed. His escape and subsequent publicity shames Warden Drumgoole (a very evil Donald Sutherland), who is blacklisted with in the Penal system. Leone serves out his remaining six months in a cozy, minimum security facility and dreams of returning home to his girlfriend. In the middle of the night he is dragged from his bed and taken to Drumgoole's new domain; Gateway, the worst prison in America. Drumgoole intends to make Leone serve very, very hard time, pushing him to his limits in hope that he might lash out and thus extend his sentence. It goes through a lot of prison movie cliches, and I guess it doesn't really stand out against the better or more exciting movies in the genre. It entertains and is occasionally engaging, but is by no means a classic. The animosity between Leone and Drumgoole is interesting, and the casting of crazy Sonny Landham as the yard boss is quite scary, but again, these are all cliches. Stallone brought back Bill Conti (his old pal from the Rocky movies) to score the movie, but he effort is totally inappropriate and the light touch to the music spoils the intensity of many scenes. A different composer might have resulted in a more memorable movie. You'll never really feel the need to revisit Lock Up after a single viewing. The Blu Ray looks decent in 1.85:1 1080p with DTS HD-MA sound. There are a bunch of old extras included.

stallone has a few months left of his sentance in a quiet peaceful jail;;but he"s sent to another jail compliments of the warden he got justice for ;for the way the WARDEN TREATED PRISONERS IN HIS OLDER JAIL;;;frank is set-up by this warden;but does everything he can to claer his name;;with violent consiquences...!10/10

I remember this movie, seen it many times on tv when I was little young. Good movie

I asked for and paid for a new dvd and got a second hand one, and it’s full of scratches, I’m not happy about this.

Really did know this cool movie is available in 4k uhd and I have to say it is a very good transfer... Donald Sutherland is awesome along with Stallone... And a nice slipcover as well Dolby vision and 5.1 DTS HD

Great movie all the way through

この映画はランボーやエクスペンダブルスに慣れている人にとっては非常に退屈だといった意見を聞いたりもしますが、私は人間の本質とは何かを万人に問う映画だと思います。 どんな場所でも自分を失わず、仲間と信頼関係を築いていく最高のヒューマンストーリーです。 最後のスマイルにまんまとやられてしまいましたＷ
