Lockout

It's exactly more than a week ago, I have watched Lockout. Thanks to Nuffnang again for the movie.


The movie started off with a guy known as Snow (Guy Pearce) who was wrongly frame for a crime and committed an espionage against United States.

He was given an offer from the United States to exchange his freedom for rescuing the President's daughter Emilie (Maggie Grace).

Emilie was earlier visiting in the orbital prison known as MS One where the most dangerous criminals were jailed there. She wanted to research on how the criminals were treat in MS One and does the medication have any side effects for putting the criminals to hibernation.

Unfortunately had an outbreak and was taken over by its inmates. Snow was the only one who is good enough to rescue the President's daughter, if she still alive in there.

MS One was in charge by Alex (Vincent Regan) and Hydell (Joseph Gilgun) who apparently is psychotic. They wanted their freedom in exchange for the President's daughter life.

The rest of the movie you need to watch it yourself, I won't be giving out the ending. 1.) Cause the movie has a few twist towards the end. 2.) I don't want to be a spoiler.

The movie was just average to me. A lot of details were left out and less action than what I have expected. The good parts were Snow's witty funny comments to Emilie and humour. The only nice action part was the Secret Operation Lead Agent (who was in charge of rescuing Emilie as well) trying to blow up MS One. Thought the CG in the movie on outerspace and the spaceships were not that brilliant.

Just in case, if you were like me can't pin point who Emilie (Maggie Grace) is. The whole night I keep recalling which movie she had acted in but I just couldn't get my hand on it. After a bit of Googling, she's Kim from Taken (one of my favourite movies) and Lost the TV series.
