An international trailer for James Mather and Stephen St. Leger's sci-fi action thriller Lock-Out has gone online and despite the outer-space setting, the movie looks like a solid little thriller.  Guy Pearce stars as wrongly-accused spy who must rescue the President's daughter (Maggie Grace) from an orbiting prison.  The Taken comparisons since both films were produced by Luc Besson, and once again Grace must be rescued by a guy with the special training to get the job done.  The good news is that Pearce does a great job of selling the tough guy routine, and the action looks fun even though the cinematographer may have gone to the J.J. Abrams' School of Needs More Lens Flares.

Hit the jump to check out the well-cut international trailer.  Lock-Out opens April 20, 2012.
