Lockout
It's the penultimate episode of Forgotten Cinema and the Mikes are going to prison...
SPACE PRISON!
Join Mike Butler and Mike Field as they discuss the 2012 Luc Besson produced sci-fi action film Lockout, starring Guy Pearce. The Mikes talk about how they love Pierce's ripped from the 90's action hero, Snow, but regret that he wasn't placed in a better more (literally) grounded film. Butler loves the nostalgic feeling this movie has in it's feeling like a movie from a decade or two prior, but cannot and does not defend it from Field pointing out the poor story, shoddy CGI, and annoying secondary villain.
So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.
