I went to see this film b/c it was in German and looked interesting, but my friend and I were both appalled by how bad it was. It's very flimsy material, poorly acted, the guy who "likes" to be spit on doesn't like it, and there's some nasty violence that's not sexy or relevant here. I'm amazed that anyone has liked this film, which felt like the script was written by a deranged 15 y.o. gay person struggling not to dislike himself and being gay.
It's not a story and it's not good enough to be porn, although it comes close to trying to be bad porn.
Don't bother.

This is a pretentiously bad movie that is pretending NOT to be a porno, when it has no real aspirations to be anything else. The majority of the cast is extremely limited in ability, and the "American" lead is a particularly bad actor (apparently simply being black makes one "hard"). What chemistry there was between the leads seems, at best, one-sided. The (uncut version of the) sex scene is mildly hot but felt obligatory. The film thinks it's an "art" film, but it is far from it. You'd be better off getting a real art film, or a real porno. This film exists in some dull limbo between the two.

Probably everyone who's going to see LOCKED UP has seen it. None the less, let me shed some light on what some of you claim to be a lack of sexual energy. What we have seen (and what I absolutely love--thanks to Marcel Schlutt as Dennis) is not the original German production. LOCKED UP is a soft porn version of the original, titled EINGELOCHT. I ordered it from Cazzo films in Berlin. It's 20 to 30 minutes longer. You'll see the full sex scene between Dennis and Mike in the cell. No soft cocks. You'll also be turned on by the sex play between the other inmates and guards. There are scenes in LOCKED UP that make to sense--like the boy who allows himself to be seen by the guards through the binocs. In EINGELOCHT that scene is a marvelously boner-producing activity. You get to see Dennis with a lovely hardon. Go to the internet and key-in Cazzo Films or the film title. It's not cheap, but it's worth every penny.

This movie is rated #2 on the best seller list WHY??? It was really a cheap low budget foreign porn with minimal porn.. It really was dissapointing. The underlying point of the movie was good but not shown properly in this film. I read several good reveiws about it and thought it would be good, was actually excstatic when it came and couldnt wait to watch it but was i in for a surprise. I ended up fast forwarding thru 1/2 the movie it was so bad. It was a real let down and a waste of money.
