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 a high-risk, high-stakes jewellery heist at at London’s Harrods 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 definitely watching to see aspects of my life reflected back at me. Especially since it’s set 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 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.
