In the town of Dos Caminos, the police department is riddled with corruption. The protagonist Miller Graham was on the receiving end of a double cross and spent ten years in prison for a burglary gone south. Now, Miller is out of prison and looking for a fresh start. But crooked cops continue to squeeze him.
"The Locksmith" included an interesting set of characters, including Beth, the spouse of Miller and their daughter, little Lindsay. Beth is a police detective, which means that she will be embroiled in the case where Miller pulls off a robbery to assist April, the widow of his best friend Kevin, who died in their failed heist a decade earlier. But Beth's job is a lonely one, as she about the only good cop in a sea of craven, greedy detectives.
Miller is given good advice by his devoted friend Frank, as well as a fresh start as a "handyman" in Frank's lock business. There was a good ebb-and-flow to the action, and solid performances from the cast. There was a nice touch in the dad teaching her daughter how to pick locks.
It was refreshing to watch an "old-style" drama that focused on the basics of a well-conceived story, fast pacing, and well-developed characters.
