Lockout actually looks like something you would expect to see Jason Statham or Vin Diesel take the lead in and not Pearce's usual fare at all. Should that be a sign of quality? Who knows, but as cool as this looks I think it also has the potential to be a right stinker. See what you think..
A man wrongly convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage against the U.S. is offered his freedom if he can rescue the president's daughter from an outer space prison taken over by violent inmates.
The movie is written and directed by James Mather and Stephen St. Leger and produced by Luc Besson. It also stars
Lost's Maggie Grace, Peter Stormare and
Misfits actor Joe Gilgun.
Lockout hits theaters April 20th.
