Lockdown

Rating:
Summary: Shocked
Review: I am not so much shocked at the content of this film as I am at how much I enjoyed watching it. True, it was brutal and gave a side of prison life that you would not wish on your worst enemy. What I enjoyed about it was the cast and the unique storyline, something that is usually not found in this type of film. I originally saw a screening of the film at the American Black Film Festival in Miami a few years ago and was equally as captivated with it when I saw it again on DVD. I would suggest this film for those who want a peek into the hard reality that so many live every day.

Summary: nothing to be played with
Review: I liked this movie and feel like it probably does accurately reflect what goes on in prison. I know this was a Master P thing and I was skeptical too, but he actually did ok in it. Good solid acting and an emotional action packed finish made this movie a "gotta have it"

Summary: REALISTIC
Review: I've never been affected by a film so much!not even horrors! This film is soooo realistic and graphic that you tend to drift off and think you're actually watching a documentary and not a film especially the (graphic)rape and fight scenes. Its really sad to know that De'aundre Bonds (the man who gets raped) is actually in prison for 11 years which I found extra-ly disturbing. but anyway, this film is amazing, i'm so into prison films now but its really disturbing to think that this actually exists in prisons...but oh well, its a lesson, if u ever go prison, this is the kinda ish u'll be facing!

Summary: scared straight..
Review: let me start by saying that i am a fan of prison movies, and shows etc. such as Oz, The Rock.. this is the first movie that i have seen that actually bothered me. this film had a very gritty view of the life behind bars, enough to make you never want to get into trouble. it captured all aspects from having to separate from your friends in order to keep your own life in tect, to how the not so strong are savagely taken advantage of and forced to do against their will. i think this is a must see, but it will touch you.. peace...

Summary: Good film
Review: Lockdown is the kind of film that makes you rethink who your friends are!!! Avery is aman who has a bright future ahead of him, and in the blink of an eye it's all taken from him when he ends up in prison for a crime he does not commit. The film touches on loyalty, keeping the faith, doing the right thing, and a strong will to survive. Master P being the executive producer and an "actor" in the film had me wondering should I bother watching this. I'm a big fan of Richard T. Jones, so I gave the movie a chance. I'm glad I did. The movie had a solid plot, and solid acting. If you are a fan of Oz, you will enjoy the movie.

Summary: It's alright
Review: Lockdown isn't that bad a movie. It just goes to show you how everything can get taken away from you at the blink of an eye. As one of the producers, Master P wanted to make the jail life as authentic as possible, and he did just that. It was taken place at some prison in New Mexico (which was the site of some big riot in the 1980's. [118 people died.]) If you are an action/drama fan watch this movie.

Summary: shocking but brutetly true
Review: this film is by no means lame.90% of the stuff shown in this movie is true.i seen this on the shelf and thought another jail movie.but it was no ordinary jail movie,with brillant acting by all, this jail movie would be one of the best ive seen.with master p and a short apperence by sticky fingers at the start just gave it even more edge.avary had a great swimming future ahead of him untill the revenge of a sour drug dealer(sticky fingers)finds avary and two close buddys behind bars for a murder they did not comit.now its down to survival of the fittest.with a savage rape happening to one of the three in the first ten minutes of being lockdown.this told me i was in for a good movie.but it turned out to be great.a must see.
