The First Official Trailer For ‘Lockout’

The new Luc Besson produced and co-written movie features Guy Pearce doing his best impersonation Hugh Jackman doing an impersonation of Snake Plissken which by all accounts should be a movie that actually star Jason Statham (or Jeffrey Donovan if the producers want the look & sound of Guy Pearce but at the pay grade of a successful Cable TV star).

I really enjoy some fun cheesy sci-fi films and ‘Lockout’ really looks like it’s going to be the perfect blend of fun action movie and fun-dumb sci-fi. I’ll get behind the concept of a space station filled with the world’s worst criminals kept in cold storage (because that isn’t asking for something to go terribly wrong), but why in the hell would The President send his super hot daughter up there? That’s just asking for a rape situation to occur. I’m not expecting a lot out of this movie since it’s a Luc Besson produced film, but it’s always nice to see the sci-fi genre getting some much needed attention.
