Alistair Ryder

View of the Arts

Ignore the specific cultural milieu; this is a broadly written tale of generational angst written in a way that young viewers can easily insert themselves into, attempting to be meaningful to all and likelier to prove meaningless to most.

Rated: 2/5

Locust pendulates between the sociopolitical tapestry that so pleases the French festival palate and the internal drama of a character that is, at times, inscrutable. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 3/5

Amber Wilkinson

Eye for Film

The plotting takes precedence over characterisation, which saps the film of tension, while its melodramatic developments feel out of keeping with the cooler noir vibe.

Rated: 3/5

John Berra

Screen International

In terms of its genre beats, Locust features some bruising fisticuffs but mostly simmers confidently before erupting in forceful fashion.

While altogether watchable, KEFF’s narrative doesn’t pack any real punches, nor does it yield any surprises in this eternal tale of the haves and have nots navigating a system rife with distraction and corruption.

Rated: 2.5/5

Loud and Clear Reviews

It’s clear that KEFF is trying to say something about power dynamics, corruption, social inequality, and how our indifference to brutality has made us selfish and numb. Locust partly manages to send this message across.

Rated: 3/5
