Frank Leone is nearing the end of his prison term for a relatively minor crime. Just before he is paroled, however, Warden Drumgoole takes charge.

Some of the production got locked-in during the filming of Lock Up (1989) when the inmate count numbers didn't add up at the end of the day so a number of cast and crew got delayed in the prison until around 7.30 pm at night until the calculation was correct. See more »

I really enjoy watching this movie.Although the movie isn't much famous as Rambo or Rocky series it's a real masterpiece.Stallone gives an excellent performance as Frank Leone- a convict that is pushed too much and not fairily from the prison warden (D.Sutherland) who has a personal vendetta with him.Frank finally achieves in an astonishing way to prove that the warden has set him up in order to escape.There is where his personal drama ends.
It's a drama-action-romance movie that it's worth to see it not only for the good performances(S.Stallone,T.Sizemore,L.Romano,F.McRay) but for the suspense especially in the end.
For me it's just a Stallone's classic one, so take a seat and enjoy this really entertaining movie
