Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In 2079 Washington, D.C., ex-CIA Operative Snow is brutally interrogated, accused of treason against the United States. Secret Service Chief Scott Langral believes that he shot the agent Frank in a hotel room. Meanwhile, Emilie Warnock, the idealistic daughter of the President of the USA, is visiting MS One, a maximum security prison in outer space, expecting to find evidence that the prisoners are actually guinea pigs of a huge corporation. When one of her bodyguards loses a hidden pistol to the dangerous prisoner Hydell, he subdues the staff in the central control room and releases the prisoners, including his brother Alex, who becomes the leader of the riot. Now veteran agent Harry Shaw offers freedom to Snow if he succeeds in rescuing the president's daughter. But the idealistic Emilie does not want to leave MS-One without the hostages.

Did You Know?
| Trivia | In October 2015, John Carpenter won a plagiarism case against Luc Besson over 'Lockout' proving clear similarities to Escape from New York (1981) and Escape from L.A. (1996). A French court ruled that enough similar distinctive elements from both Carpenter's films were borrowed to merit a sanction. See more » |
| Goofs | It is incredibly unlikely that a space station would so quickly acquire dangerous orbital decay without performing major maneuvers. The ISS crashing into the station suggests the space prison had a higher orbit than ISS, but orbital decay is a very slow process. The ISS can go months without needing an orbital boost as the drag at that altitude is very minimal. Skylab orbited for five years after its final mission without any orbital boosts. See more » |

| Quotes |
Emilie Warnock:
Who are you? Who sent you? Snow: Your old man did. Emilie Warnock: My dad. What did he say? Snow: Well, I didn't get to meet him personally. He kind of delegated your rescue. He had a big conference on the corn surplus. Emilie Warnock: You're kidding me? Snow: No. No, apparently, we should all be eating more corn. Emilie Warnock: About my father? Snow: Oh, yeah. I made that other bit up. Emilie Warnock: Did he have a message for me? Snow: Yes. You are adopted. See more » |
