Critics Consensus

Unlocked strands an all-star cast in a spy thriller whose embrace of old-school formula might be refreshing if it weren't bogged down in genre clichés and a predictable plot.

[Unlocked] is staid and formulaic, though well-executed.

It would be a welcome treat to watch the Alice Racine chronicles, as she travels around Europe taking out terrorist cells with her combination of interrogation and combat skills.

When it mercifully ends after 98 excruciating minutes, you still don't have a clue what it was all about.

The film is made less awful, bordering into watchable, thanks solely to it's cast -- though they admittedly mostly phone in their performances.

A fruitful exercise in genre, the sort of flick that might have a healthy shelf life on Netflix.

A decent yet terminally erratic thriller...

On the positive side, the main character in the story does some very clever things and is very good at her job. Noomi Rapace does a good job as the lead action star in this film, and the action is well shot. The storyline about a manufactured virus to create stronger government control is something that feels all too real post 2020. Orlando Bloom is also a welcome addition to the cast, injecting a good amount of humor and energy to the film. On the negative side, it is hard for a movie to sell the "trust no one" angle of things, when the story follows the most cookie cutter spy story there is. I won't spoil it here, just in case you have never seen a movie before and you want this one to be your first. But yeah, it is the most predictable "twist" I have seen in a long time.

OK spy thriller, in the vein of Jason Bourne. The plot was halfway decent and the acting was not bad. Worthwhile watching if there is nothing else on

I am surprised this movie hasn't received better reviews. Is it up there with the first Jason Bourne movie, no. But it is certainly up there with its sequels. Noomi Rapace is charismatic, and Malkovich plays the world-weary intelligence officer well. Douglas plays the slimeball perfectly. I am surprised that it did not get some sequels.

Never heard of this movie before, but it's free on Prime and it's got tons of famous actors in it which is fun for an action movie. It's a little weird, but if you like action movies, this is a nice change from the Marvel ones with all the CGI. For a free streaming movie on a Saturday night, it was pretty decent!
