About This Movie

Locke the Superman: New World Command is a curious blend of action and animation, set against the backdrop of a dystopian future on the Colony-Planet of Dinahl. The pacing is a bit erratic, which adds to the overall surreal atmosphere as Azalea uncovers fragments of her forgotten past. The voice calling her name creates this eerie sense of longing, and when she meets others in the park atop a skyscraper, the film dives deeper into themes of identity and collective memory. The practical effects give it a raw edge, unlike the slickness of modern animations. There’s something distinct about its approach to storytelling, albeit a bit disjointed – like a puzzle that’s missing a few pieces, but still intriguing for collectors interested in lesser-known gems.
