Stephen Graham, give that man an award. Some people are born to act and Stephen is one of them. I am an avid fan of his and have seen most of his work and I can honestly say this is his best yet. Shane Meadows, excellent storytelling as always. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry and it will make you feel unbelievably numb at times. Graham plays the role of an extremely troubled alcoholic in search of answers and he plays it to perfection. The lives of some very dejected and disillusioned people intertwine and lead to a tumultuous emotional rollercoaster. A must watch! Be prepared to be affected by this long after it has finished.

I can understand why people may be sceptical about this movie. I mean it's one man sat in his car for 80+ minutes but I urge you to give it a chance. It is a complete breath of fresh air in a time where great movies are scarce! The ever versatile Tom Hardy delivers a powerhouse performance that will have you thinking about this movie long after the credits have rolled.

It depicts a man in a difficult situation torn between keeping the solid foundations of his life together and doing the right thing. Not for a second was I bored watching this film, it keeps you intrigued the whole way through and never feels like it's dragging. Even more impressive is the fact it was shot over 8 days on a considerably low budget. Credit to Steven Knight and Tom Hardy.

Locke is a breath of fresh air. It's original. It's different . Also Tom Hardy's Welsh accent is a great addition!
