As a genre exercise, I enjoyed it a lot.

Filmmaker David Yarovesky and writer Michael Arlen Ross have lots of tricks up their sleeves, including arguments about Marx and Dostoyevsky, not to mention actors who don't need to be in the same space to raise gooseflesh.

A film like “Locked” lives and dies by its ability to entertain us with images of a man banging on tinted windows for help while he faces the prospect of being hurled off the roof of a parking garage. And on that, it delivers.

| Original Score: C+ | Mar 21, 2025

“Locked” is not without limited charms, but it ultimately fails to bridge the gap between putting audiences in the car with Eddie, and actually wanting to make them go for the ride.

“Locked” starts promisingly, and then almost refuses to really go anywhere, trapped by its own concept and unwillingness to do anything thematically richer than “wealthy people be crazy.”

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 21, 2025

It all makes for one wild ride and gives both actors the perfect vehicle to showcase their talents.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 20, 2025

Throughout, the filmmakers’ sympathies are lost in a confusing haze of cynicism.
