Double rescue
in outer space Most of the story of the film takes place in a space station used as a prison in outer space, which is full of dangerous prisoners. Things get even more complicated when the president's daughter is kidnapped by criminals and a tainted former agent is dispatched to rescue it. For this story, director James Mather said: "It's great, I think this story has a double meaning. The first layer means that the agents went to rescue the president's daughter, because where she was in danger and her life was in danger, so The U.S. military sent the most capable elite soldiers to rescue; the second meaning is that the agent himself did not want to go there to perform this dangerous mission, he had no choice but to go ahead. Because He's going to bring back the president's daughter in exchange for his freedom. That's what makes this story interesting, because it's not a movie of personal heroism, but a story of a tainted man who goes to work for his freedom. In addition, the plot, sci-fi setting and arrangement of action scenes in the film are very mainstream."
Luc Besson, the film's executive producer and producer, said: "The film is interesting and tells the story of a rescue. It's essentially an action movie with elements of sci-fi. Of course, sci-fi is not The content that the movie is trying to express is the traditional, fast-cut action scenes. I like this kind of movie very much, because similar movies are very direct and can provide the audience with the most direct, accurate and clear entertainment elements. For example, I just think about the fight and shootout in this scene, and then I shoot this scene, and everything will be fine. Other things, don't need to think too much. I like this kind of movie very much." Actually, The film was dubbed "The Hurricane Rescue" in space at the beginning of the shooting, which is enough to see how similar the two films, both produced by Luc Besson, are. However, compared with "Hurricane Rescue", "Anti-Lock" is obviously more commercial. James Mather said: "Compared with "Hurricane Rescue", "Anti-Lock" has a larger story and better production. In addition to some sci-fi elements and CG animation. The dilemma faced by the protagonist is also "Hurricane Rescue". It is difficult for the protagonist of the film to reach. Even if he is alone in the Longtan, the regulation and size of special effects scenes and action scenes, "Anti-Lock" is still a lot higher. Therefore, this movie will be more exciting, It'll look even better."
Luc Besson-esque action films
The famous British-born, Australian-raised actor Guy Pearce took the lead in this film, playing the tainted agent. Although people's recognition of Guy Pearce mainly comes from Nolan's "Memento", the Australian actor has acted in many well-known action films, such as "Seeking Justice", "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" and "Fear of the Dark" Patriot, etc. At will, for Guy Pearce, shooting an action scene is not too difficult. Guy Pearce said: "This movie is very different from those Hollywood movies that sell for action, so I'm happy to treat such a movie as a 'Luc Bessonian action movie', especially The fights, camera cuts, and action design are very different from American action films in general. Also, the two directors of the film are also Irish, and they put a lot of Irish humor into the film. These things It's really looking forward to blending together. Because it's a movie shot on a green screen, I won't know what I'm actually doing until it's released. But you know, Luc What is a Bessonian action movie about, so this movie won't let people down."
Maggie Grace, who plays the president's daughter in the film, once collaborated with Luc Besson in "Hurricane" Rescue", but in that movie, she didn't have any action scenes. In this film, Grace will have the opportunity to show off her skills. In this regard, Grace said: "I never imagined that I would have any action scenes in a movie. However, I think it is a fun thing to do action scenes, especially on green screen. It's really fun to do some of the action in your head the way the director wants. Also, I'm really lucky to work with a big actor like Guy Pearce in this movie. With him Working together, there wasn't a lot of pressure because in many scenes he would tell me how to not get hurt and the shots would look better. He's a great actor, whether it's acting or speaking, It's all like that." The film was written and produced by Luc Besson
