Read my spoiler-free movie review of Locked Down (2021).
Locked Down is the latest comedy/romance starring Anne Hathaway and Chiwetel Ejiofor.
From director Doug Liman, the story is about a couple’s attempt at a high-risk, high-stakes jewellery heist at London’s Harrod’s department store.
Additional key cast includes Mindy Kaling, Ben Kingsley, Lucy Boynton, Jazmyn Simon and Stephen Merchant.
This looks like the first high-profile film about life during the pandemic. I’m watching to see aspects of my life reflected at me. Especially since it’s set in London, England. I also just want to see how well this turns out. You know, considering the constraints of shooting while a pandemic is still going on.
I know for sure that I already love Ejiofor’s line at 0:45 seconds into this trailer. It’s just so delightfully British, isn’t it?
Dulé Hill, Mark Gatiss, Bobby Schofield and Shereen Gray also star.
Locked Down Release Dates: January 14th, 2021 (US), HBO Max; March 5th, 2021 (UK)…
Happy Film Loving,

I wonder how much it costs to film in Harrods.
Assuming they actually filmed in THE Harrods, perhaps it cost a little less since they didn’t have to shut the store specifically for film, because it was already shut.
I really like the cast but I’m not sure I’m far enough removed from the pandemic to want to see movies about it yet. Maybe when I can actually go back to the theater I’ll feel better about it!
I understand, Gemma. I feel like I’m ready because I too love the cast and l’m a fan of the sarcastic humour in this trailer. Laughing when possible is definitely part of what’s helping me through these trying times.
I just can’t do anything Anne Hathaway.. hahahahaha
Oh, no! 🤓
When did the aversion begin?
hahahahaha pretty much from day one but I did see the Princess movie & Devil Wears Prada – but when they made her Catwoman – that was it!
😂😂 I see.
That looks really good! Unreal that movies are already being made about lockdown.
