This film is a high-quality thriller using the same old concept in a new box. It’s highly entertaining and moves at a steady pace.
Plot: This is an out of our time movie set in 2079 A.D where all the evil prisoners from all over the world have been locked up in a high profile security prison in space. Yes, you read it right and not only is a prison break difficult it’s impossible since all the 497 prisoners are in stasis (hibernation) mode till their punishment. Our main hero, Snow (

) who turns out to be President’s daughter and obviously has a huge heart goes to this prison to check if the prisoners are ill-treated or are they having the side effects of the stasis. The interview doesn’t go well; a breakout occurs, and all the prisoners get released. Now our man, Snow is given an offer to rescue the daughter and get away. An impossible mission; an exceptional guy with wittiest one-liners and 497 prisoners (some are psychotic and wild) all on one space station.
The story is binding and keeps you on your toes. The graphics is exceptional and adds to the aura of the scene created by some amazing background score. Brilliant performances by Guy and Maggie and a prodigious show by Joseph Gilgun makes you want to watch it till the end. There is a little revelation at the end that relates to the commencement that you almost forget due to the commotion on the station and attacking revelries.There is also a briefcase like in Pulp Fiction after which everyone and it reveals something important.Â
Verdict: Though the concept is not new the presentation and the cinematography definitely makes it worth a watch. Overall a good value for money.
