Locked

Movie 2025 95 min MA 15+ Horror, Thriller

Our take

Locked is an R-rated thriller about a thief trapped in a soundproof SUV by Anthony Hopkins' vigilante. Expect claustrophobic threats, beatings, a forced urine-drinking survival moment, gun violence with blood, and 60+ f-words. A young daughter motivates the hero but is not harmed on screen

Uplifting themes

A father's love for his child drives his survival Hero is sympathetic but commits theft

Story (may spoil tone)

When Eddie breaks into a luxury SUV, he steps into a deadly trap set by William, a self-proclaimed vigilante delivering his own brand of twisted justice. With no means of escape, Eddie must fight to survive in a ride where escape is an illusion, survival is a nightmare, and justice shifts into high gear.
