Review of Locke

Locke (2013)
6/10
Very nice change from all the big blockbuster.
29 July 2014
I think I am not the only one here who is a bit sick of the CGI and the massive big budget dramas. This movie is a very pleasant change and I enjoyed it very much. Tom Hardy was good (not excellent as everyone has been suggesting). The story is very simple and to the point. The thing that I enjoyed a lot was the frequency of the film and the way they fluctuate between highly intensity to a bit calm and then back again. The camera work very good.

That all being said I still think there is something missing here. I cant find any major flaws in the film, its in the premise of being a highly rated film but something is little bit off. And after thinking a lot I think Tom hardy was trying very hard to keep the calm, cool and the lovable being and he never let go of himself in the character. I think that was the only thing that stopped this movie to be the ultimate thriller drama that it could have been. And it had all the ingredients to be one of the best movie this year. Well just my opinion but still highly recommended, please do watch this and have your own take on the film.
