Locked Down

At first I thought it was going to be boring as some reviews say, but I found it quite entertaining and up to date. I have laughed and I have seen myself live some situations that are captured in the film quite well. Give it a chance and enjoy, a simple story that knows how to treat the covid and the day to day of the pandemic in a realistic and optimistic ay.

There's a lot of disappointment from people who expected a good heist plot or a compelling marriage romcom.

I went in with no expectations at all, and the strong acting and good score were quite enough to make it enjoyable.

Bland, sometimes incomprehensible, story with an ending which truly makes no sense. Such a waste of excellent actors on such a boring, non-sensical story.

This movie was put out so quickly just to take advantage of current events and it shows. Extremely boring and Chiwetel has never had any talent other than a concerned cardboard-faced copy/pasted version of undoubtedly his real life self. Anne is past her prime, which is sad to see, but it's happened.

Like a funnier, less pretentious Malcolm and Marie.

The Paxton character alternates between hit or miss. He's often faux deep in a cringey way and I'm not sure if it's bad writing or it's self aware and poking fun. I've giving it the benefit of the doubt and leaning self-aware because Anne Hathaway feels like she's ETERNALLY rolling her eyes into the back of her head in this and I related. Either way I laughed.

On that point - I think I like Anne Hathaway more than most people. She was great in Colossal and she's the best thing about this. This film might not age amazingly (maybe it already hasn't?) but it was fun for what it was.
