Locked In

For his first feature film, writer-director Gutierrez has pulled it off quite admirably with this thriller featuring some well known actors thrown into a confined scenario which is always a difficult one to pull off but I think he did rather well with what he had to work with. As usual we have the (1 or 10) star reviews which you can virtually ignore in almost every film review section as rarely does a film merit a 10 which is the best movie you have ever seen or a 1 which is the worst movie you have ever seen and this is most certainly a million miles away from a 1 - I suggest these reviewers watch the "Bad Batch" or the recent Mickey Rourke thriller "Adverse" and tell me this film still merits a 1 star review!

Good acting performances from all concerned which is always a good start, basic heist and retrieve the stolen goods story which is staple thriller fair but done with aplomb, a welcome return from Jeff Fahey who pulls of a rather impressive vicious bad guy and Mena Suvari as the heroine who always gives a good performance, make this a lot better than it would have been without them.

Good nights viewing which will not have you reaching for the fast forward button. Solid 6 out of 10.

Non sence they call 911 only one cops come and get killed no cops come after that. Not logic. The camera did not record the whole story while she got away with it. No sense as well.

I love it when reviewers think they are knowledgeable about what makes a good movie, acting, etc. They think you can't be a good critic unless you nit-pic about every little issue and give it a thumbs down. This is not a great movie but it's worth watching. The acting was fine. Those who say it was unbelievable are probably the same ones who have no problem watching cars turn into robots. I have to wonder how many good movies I've missed in the past because I read someone's review who didn't have a clue.

Just watching the trailer you can see how stupid and dumb this movie is as they were able to fend off bad dudes who wanted their diamonds. I wanted the mom and daughter to die just looking at the trailer. Then I wanted all of them to die because the crooks were bumbling idiots to allow these ridiculous women to best them. This movie makes no sense at all.

This is one of those B movies that is good for background noise whilst doin' something else. Especially if you have ADHD, you won't be able to stay focused past the first 10-15 mins.
