What it's about:
A falsely convicted ex-government agent's one chance at obtaining freedom lies in the dangerous mission of rescuing the president’s daughter from rioting convicts at an outer-space maximum security prison.
What the critics thought:
"It's the kind of movie where someone tumbling in space above the earth's atmosphere opens a parachute and lands gently on earth without even gasping for a breath."
- Kyle Smith, New York Post
"Lockout is derivative and ridiculous and a good time, provided you can turn off higher brain functions along with any other part of you that might want to lodge a complaint about liberal borrowing from better movies."
- Alison Willmore, Movieline
