Review:

Image from: Deadlocked: Escape from Zone 14 (1995)

I saw today, in a free weekend morning 'Deadlocked' part of the periodic cleaning up of my reserve of VCR recordings. Well, I could have picked up something better to do with my morning. 'Deadlocked' is one of these low budget TV action movies that need either a different idea, or memorable effects, or at least some good acting to resist well the proof of time. Unfortunately this film has nothing of the above - the idea is a combination of the 'escape from hell' and 'corporate crime' themes that we have already seen in two zillion films, most of the gadgets of future_of_1995 already became reality in 2005, and look better in reality and acting is average minus. The film is not completely ridiculous because it was originally made in relative good taste, but looks dusty and completely not interesting today.
