Locked Down

A very pleasant movie for a rainy day. Kudos to the writer who wrote the interesting dialog that was delivered by the two main actors. I especially liked Anne Hathaway and her many monologues. The scenery in London was nice and the story kept my interest. A bit on the intellectual side, but that is what made it good for me.

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.

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.

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.

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.
