"Really surprised and impressed with how this single location, single actor movie could hold my attention for 90 minutes! If you watch it alone in the dark, it almost feels like a meditative experience. It explores the consequences of making poor (and difficult) moral choices. Tom Hardy gives a fantastic performance as Ivan Locke, a man who’s entire life is collapsing in real time, right in front of our eyes."
"To me, this movie is really different but in a really great way. Tom Hardy is phenomenal, of course. He is a tremendous actor. And it’s just Tom you see in the movie while he’s driving but its done so well and is not boring at all. You will not regret watching it. It’s really cool. "

"Tom Hardy driving and talking on the phone for 85 mins. It is incredible. And a young Tom Holland plays the voice of his son. "

"Entire movie takes place in a car... so more like a “play”... but great dialogue and acting"

"whole thing takes place in the car, is a bit boring and slow paced at times but I’ve never seen anything like this and the cinematography is great"

"My lord, I could watch Tom Hardy quite possibly our most underrated actor, mow the lawn for 2 hours and be entertained simply by his presence.
That is the only thing that got me through this absurd movie. His character is pretty much the only guy on the planet Earth who would give up his entire world for a one-night stand that he had forgotten about and drive all night to try and be with the woman having the baby and give up his career and his family at the same time while his phone rings non-stop during the entire ride with half the calls coming from the world's most conscientious hospital staff that personally get on the phone with him because his one-night stand is very upset that he's not there lol.
This movie cost about $0.50 to make outside of whatever they paid Tom Hardy and the storyline is absurd. If you're looking to set a world record for the amount of times you're going to shake your head in an hour and a half, this is your movie!"
