Critics Consensus: Guy Pearce does the best he can with what he's given, but Lockout is ultimately too derivative and shallow to build on the many sci-fi thrillers it borrows from.

There's not a lot that can save Lockout from being what it is: 94 minutes of mindless fun.

Lock and load! Don't get locked out of Lockout. And yes....I want my sequel now.

This movie is vacuous.

An adrenaline fuelled amalgamation of frantic thrill-per-minute action with the claustrophobic ten...

For a night of shameless entertainment and explosions, Lockout is a winning choice.

Common Sense Says

Outer-space rescue adventure has lots of action violence.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that Lockout is a futuristic action movie with almost constant fighting and chasing, as well as shooting, dead bodies, and some blood. The main male character is a cocky scoundrel who treats the main female character with disrespect (including punching her), even though she's shown to be brave. She winds up becoming a damsel in distress and a romantic interest for him; as a result, there's sexual tension and innuendo between them. Language includes one "f--k," many uses of "s--t," and more. The main character also regularly smokes cigarettes, mainly -- it seems -- to annoy others.
