A prison cell in outer space recently broke and a man named Snow, wrongly accused of espionage who is about to be sent in there, is expected to save the President's daughter from a huge number of outraging inmates.

I was not really sure about the film's direction or how the makers wanted the film to appear to audience. I thought the action stunts are unrealistic (or maybe just the visual effects?) however, it was a decent action film in general. The fast-phased action helps the humor (also the drama) to be highlighted. Yeah, I like how the humor was injected in a story of national emergency. Plus, the psycho inmate made the film - in a way- touching.
Guy Pearce and Maggie Grace (from Taken) were both satisfyingly good and entertaining.
Just a question, ***SPOILER ALERT*** how did Emilie got out from the pad?
