Lockout (not to be confused with Lock Up) is a 2012 movie that was made because Luc Besson though, "It's the end of the world, so f*ck it, let's rip-off both 'Escape From New York" AND 'Escape From L.A.' and throw in that 'Fortress' movie, what could go wrong?" (Funny thing, the world didn't end, and Carpenter won a lawsuit in France against Besson.)

In 2079, the president's daughter, who's a FOX News watcher's idea of a liberal, is taken hostage aboard the PRISON IN SPACE she was visiting, to rant about how awful it is (it is awful, but it turns out the prisoners are bad people, so, we aren't suppose to care, I guess?). There's only one man who can save her- Snake Plissken! But he's not there. Instead we get Guy "looks like he should be a movie star, so why not" Pearce as "Snow"- that's it, just "Snow"- ex-CIA agent who's been framed for murder. The one man who could testify for him is on the SPACE PRISON, so he goes. Cliche storm ahoy!

Features multiple characters suddenly becoming stupid for plot purposes, "comedy relief" that's acutely painful, misogyny, a cut on a character's face constantly changing position, a "running gag" about smoking that seems to be a creator's fetish, and a major character who, though giving the best performance in the film, can not be understood through his accent. And A LOT of action scenes that make very little sense.

Oh, and a finale which throws any semblance of physical reality out the window. You think Indiana Jones surviving an A-bomb in a refrigerator was silly? JUST WATCH.
