10 Best Movie Lockdowns
9. Panic Room
If you're really serious about locking down, you need to get yourself a panic room. That's what Jodie Foster does in David Fincher's 2002 movie about a mother and her diabetic daughter forced to self-isolate when a trio of vicious crooks breaks into their house looking for a safe which happens to be hidden in the panic room itself.
What follows is an elaborate game of cat and mouse in which both sides try to outplot and double-bluff each other to get what they need. The crooks want to get in so they can steal the money but Foster also needs to get out to retrieve her daughter's glucagon syringes.
J-Fo gives a great, gutsy performance with support from a young Kristen Stewart. There are some excellent, tense, action sequences. Jared Leto is in it, with his hair in corn rows. It's a good, solid thriller that will make you feel lucky you at least have windows.
