Confinados

This movie is horrible hate saying that cause I enjoy movies by Chiwetal Ejiofor and Anne Hathaway. HBO stop making everything political.

I was wondering how long it would take them before they came up with a Covid movie and apparently it's not even that long as we're still right in the middle of it. The movie is as boring as the whole supposed pandemia. I guess they made it in the beginning of the outbreak as the measures still seem to be mild, not really what we are imposed to do now. Locked Down is too long, much too long. It's a lot of talking, a lot of uninteresting conversations.. And even though the cast contains some well known actors it's still a mediocre movie. You have to wait till the very last part to have some crime, but even that wasn't satisfying. If you want to watch endless conversations between Chiwetel Ejiofor and Anne Hathaway then this is a movie for you. If on the other hand you're sick of hearing anything about Covid just skip this one, I wish I did.

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.
