Lockdown makes that excruciating and often terrifying ordeal of incarceration gut wrenching and palpable.
02/17/03
[A] modest yet intermittently powerful film.
02/14/03
Despite a low budget and predictable story line, Lockdown has undeniable power to it, fired by some fine performances and a terrifying portrayal of prison life that rings disturbingly true.

Top CriticDoesn't tell you much about prison life that the movies ... haven't told you already.

Top CriticWhat makes the movie memorable is its authenticity.

Top CriticBenefits from authenticity, sincerity and an honest sense of outrage.
02/14/03
Top CriticMelodramatic and sincere, Lockdown shows the penal system's corruptions sensationally, in ways that distinguish it from sensational prison flicks like Seagal's trippy Half Past Dead (2002) or Stallone's histrionic Lock Up (1989).
02/14/03
Though over-the-top and simplistic, the film has a punchy B-movie grit and gusto.

Top CriticHere's hoping Richard T. Jones will get a chance to display his chops in a real movie sometime.
