![]() Lockdown $2.99 This movie was excellent!! Great storyline, characters and plot!! Great for teens that are on the wrong path in life and need a wake up call. Prison is not where anyone wants to be. I'm not a huge fan of Master P in films but he was good in this movie and Undisputed with Ving Rhames and Wesley Snipes. ![]() Lockdown: Escape from Furnace $14.99 This book has lots of scare potential, but doesn't deliver. Skinless monster dogs, gasmask-faced creepies, a kitchen full of rotting offal, and other stock terrors should have had this scaredycat reader quivering under the covers, but instead it all bounced off me. I found it hard to believe that the boys in this allegedly nightmarish prison had so much time to talk amongst themselves, and that the "blacksuit" guards are conveniently more lax in their duties as one group of boys chips away at a detailed, lengthy escape plan. In other parts of the book, the "blacksuits" are painted as superhuman/monstrous, with the ability to appear out of nowhere and to know things they couldn't possibly know. So to have them suddenly slack off when it was convenient for the book's heroes seemed like cheating. The tone of the book -- and of the protagonist's voice in particular -- is way too light and doesn't serve the horror that the book tries to dish up again and again. In short, the author fails to set up the "rules" of the story, and therefore it's impossible for the him to play by the rules that would have made this book actually scary. ![]() Love Lockdown $0.99 When it has came down to Kanye West, he has had a lot to rap about, but unfortunately there always can be a rap song that can feel like it is a bag of mixed tricks. After the upbeat and dominant sounds of Heartless, he has sadly though had a stumble on his latest single from 808's And Heartbreak, Love Lockdown, didn't really feel to me like it had the vibe as was the case was before. I really didn't feel the energy within the way Kanye sang as was before. I do hope though that his next single can feel like it has a lot of in the beats, than leave you feeling a little bit heartbroken.
