Movies these days often span dozens of different locations and sets, with scores of extras in the background bringing the cast to thousands. But why complicate things? That’s the thought process on display inLocke,a brilliant movie set entirely in one location, and with only one face on screen, now available onAmazon Prime Video.
With such a unique premise and little actually on screen, you need the right people supporting and luckily that’s the case here. While we may never see them, there are a few big-name voices in the supporting cast, including Olivia Colman, Ruth Wilson and even a young Tom Holland. Behind the camera, Stephen Knight (yes the creator ofPeaky Blinders) is on hand to write and direct. The end result is a superb film from a premise that might in lesser hands have seemed a bit of a gimmick. With a 91% score onRotten Tomatoes, I’m not the only one who thinks so.
If you’re after something with a similar one actor, one location setup, try the Ryan Reynolds thrillerBuriedwhich is currently streaming on ITVX in the UK, or Freevee in the US). Otherwise, thebest streaming serviceshave plenty of great movies to choose from.
