Editorial Review:
British actor Tim Roth and the rapper Tupac Shakur are an unexpectedly charismatic and refreshing duo in this off-beat buddy movie. Closer than two brothers, these junkie musicians vow to kick their habits after a soul-shattering New Year's Eve. Gridlock'd is fueled by characterization, of which there is plenty, as the two play off one another with such finesse you would never know Shakur had been a relative novice to the acting profession. Off-beat humor lightens a bleak reality as these outcasts run smack against a brutal bureaucracy. Except for a tired subplot meant to jazz up the action, director Vondie Curtis-Hall employs an inventive approach in this sadly ignored theatrical release. --Rochelle O'Gorman
Gridlock'd Reviews:
Boring 
2009-12-15 - Tupac did a good job acting (he was the reason I watched this movie), but the movie was too slow for me. The director's choice of flashbacks to me didn't match with the plot.
Way Better Than I Thought It Would Be 
2009-08-20 - I bought this not really knowing if I would like it or not, and I was pleasantly suprised! Although it is a drama, there are lighter, funnier moments that make this film great. I would recommend this to friends.
excellent & fast
2009-04-27 - The seller sent the movie right away, it only took a couple of days and the movie was in perfect condition.Gridlock'd
Excellent Movie but skimpy on the features
2009-04-08 - This is an excellent absolutely hilarious movie that no die hard Tim Roth fan can turn down. Both Roth and Tupac give amazing performaces and portray a believable friendship that can translate through the ages. The DVD is really skimpy on extras but the movie is the most important thing!
rehab
2009-03-19 - This movie has all of the action and reactions expected in an up and down drug movie. It has a few lighter moments but the fact is sometimes it's hard to get into public funded rehab. Very sad tupac can't enjoy it now.
