Alistair Ryder View of the Arts Ignore the specific cultural milieu; this is a broadly written tale of generational angst written in a way that young viewers can easily insert themselves into, attempting to be meaningful to all and likelier to prove meaningless to most. Rated: 2/5 May 22, 2024 Full Review Diego Batlle Otroscines.com Locust pendulates between the sociopolitical tapestry that so pleases the French festival palate and the internal drama of a character that is, at times, inscrutable. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 May 21, 2024 Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film The plotting takes precedence over characterisation, which saps the film of tension, while its melodramatic developments feel out of keeping with the cooler noir vibe. Rated: 3/5 May 20, 2024 Full Review John Berra Screen International In terms of its genre beats, Locust features some bruising fisticuffs but mostly simmers confidently before erupting in forceful fashion. May 19, 2024 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com While altogether watchable, KEFF’s narrative doesn’t pack any real punches, nor does it yield any surprises in this eternal tale of the haves and have nots navigating a system rife with distraction and corruption. Rated: 2.5/5 May 16, 2024 Full Review Serena Seghedoni Loud and Clear Reviews It’s clear that KEFF is trying to say something about power dynamics, corruption, social inequality, and how our indifference to brutality has made us selfish and numb. Locust partly manages to send this message across. Rated: 3/5 May 16, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
