“Sutherland and Stallone are outstanding… A surprisingly human film.”

He is only six months away from freedom. But a warden obsessed with revenge wants to take his future away.

“This is hell and I’m going to give you a guided tour!” With these chilling words, the warden (Donald Sutherland) welcomes Frank Leone (Sylvester Stallone) to Gateway Prison, a nightmare jail where every minute is hard time. The warden wants vengeance for the past; Leone wants only to survive the present. Their explosive battle of wills is the electrifying heart of Stallone’s most heroic thriller yet, LOCK UP.

Stallone gives a monumental performance as Leone, a convict driven to break his own cherished code by a warden who will stop at nothing to get him.

Sutherland portrays the sadistic prison head in this riveting white-knuckle ride to hell and back. Stallone behind bars. But not for long.
