Oh, it’s preposterous, but there are enough unexpected turns in the plot to keep you guessing as you bite those nails down to the quick.

Rated: 3/4

Film Threat

You won’t find any pivotal innovations in the narrative formula, but you will find an atmosphere and tempo that screams claustrophobia and desperation in every frame.

Rated: 6/10

“Schießer’s Amazon film is an imaginative thriller, one that requires the performers to think visually like the director.”

Everything's Interesting

Trunk: Locked In is a claustrophobic watch by necessity; I’d be disappointed if it weren’t. Thankfully, director Marc Schießer manages to move his camera in wild, interesting ways despite the confined setting, constantly finding new, intriguing angles.

I felt slightly let down... although, because I like so many other aspects of this film, I do think that there is a place for this in your to-watch list.

Rated: 6/10

The Take-Up

A 96-minute, single-location, mostly-real-time nail-biter that delivers solid survival-thriller fundamentals.

Um filme com uma dinânica bem ativa. Adorei a iluminação e fotografia dele. O roteiro é interessante, com alguns plots, mas também com algumas escolhas desnecessárias na minha opinião e por isso não ganha nota máxima. Em todo caso, é um ótimo filme pra se passar o tempo. Detalhes absurdos devem ser desconsiderados se quiser curtir o filme. Por exemplo: nunca imaginei que um porta malas fosse tão espaçoso.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Single location movies are a pet hate of mine as it feels like a creative copout, so maybe I'm not the best person to review this. After about forty minutes it appeared we were going to be stuck in the trunk the whole movie. I got bored and tapped out. The acting and production value was fine. The storytelling didn't feel realistic.

A girl in the trunk of a car fearing for her life rings everyone but the police -and wastes time watching clips on her phone. I gave up after 10 minutes.. Insulting nonsense.

Why doesn’t she call 911 when she is locked in a car trunk by a criminal?
