As you'd expect from a story that never leaves the confines of a car, Locke is intense and claustrophobic.

Hardy makes for a compelling psychological tour guide, utilizing much more than his right foot to add forward momentum.

Writer-director Steven Knight's Locke is literally a one-man show that rests on the able shoulders of actor Tom Hardy.

Knight's picture falls somewhere between experiment and triumph, but it ends up being as engrossing as it is because of the terrific work of Hardy as Ivan Locke.

It's an audacious picture, perhaps a bit gimmicky-but undeniably quite good, and possibly even great.

Tom Hardy's visceral performance in this one-man meltdown packs more drama than a half-dozen multi-character stories.

Yes, it sounds like a gimmick. But Tom Hardy is so compelling, multilayered and terrific in the title role, this one-man show is never dull.

For the most part, it works like gangbusters.
