It's stuff that we've seen before, but it's done reasonably well. Go to Full Review
Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times 02/11/2019
Heartlock is lean, stylish and confidently crafted. Go to Full Review
Glenn Kenny New York Times 01/24/2019
The picture's gender and race dynamics, not to mention its forced star-crossed lovers theme, are sufficiently commonplace to register as hackneyed. Go to Full Review

4/10
No matter the convincing performances and poignant points regarding politics in the prison community, this deadly dull drama doesn't get away with a get-out-of-jail-free card. Go to Full Review

Courtney D 12/31/2023 Good movie! I loved the chemistry between Alexander Dreymon and Lesley-Ann Brandt. Both are very talented actors who deserve more quality projects. I'm a huge fan of Alexander Dreymon and he should have gotten a nomination for Best Actor in The Last Kingdom. He made Uhtred an iconic hero and legend. See more farah r @Farah 06/21/2021 The performances were decent but the movie as a whole isn't good. It's boring and not enjoyable. See more nancy b 05/24/2020 Wow Im a big Dreymond fan but I had to grit my teeth to finish this. A lot of old plot. Seems like the actors had. To grit their teeth too. Yikes. Who distributed this movie? Cinema is about escapism not about wanting[audience] to escape. At least Lee dies at the end. See more 01/27/2019 Great movie!! Great chemistry. Intense. Sensual. Gripping. Heartbreaking. Even some humor. LOVED IT!!! See more 01/27/2019 I liked the movie and I liked the chemistry between the two actors. See more 01/27/2019 I really enjoyed both the chemistry between the actors. I thought they both gave a wonderful performance. The main villain was also unique to watch. It was a great movie, It is one of those films that I could watch over and over and would also recommend it to my friends. See more Read all reviews
