Review of Lockout (2012) by Bruce722 — 29 Nov 2012

This movie had potential to be a really good movie. The concept is great, the acting is solid, the characters aren't all so one-dimensional, and it's really entertaining. Guy Pearce did a great job. He kind of reminded me of a "poor man's" Mark Wahlberg.

The problem came in with the lazy writing that created unbelievable plot development. Add to that the fact that the effects were terrible pretty much throughout the film and the movie goes from really good to just OK.

So I guess if you want to see a halfway decent futuristic action movie, check it out.
