More Action Than Any Bond Movie
Advantages: A swift well spent 90 minutes
Disadvantages: None for me
...to me when I watched District 13: Ultimatum (Banlieue 13 – Ultimatum). Luckily for me the movie was so cleverly pieced together that if you had not caught the first its not going to be an issue, no catching up on story, no hidden riddles; Ultimatum sits happily as a stand alone movie. Rather like Escape From New York, District 13 places the people nobody wants to know or hear about behind a wall were they can’t be a hindrance to normal everyday people. ...
...cop Damien (Cyril Raffaelli) and District 13 freedom fighter Leito (David Belle) to gather the evidence and fight for the people of District 13 before the government raise it to the ground. D13: Ultimatum mixes the action movie with the wonder of Parkour, creating an enticing visual spectacle that continuously finds you asking, “How the hell did they do that?” The fight scenes and stunts are quite simply some of the best I have seen, working against ...

La Haine - hatred breeds hatred
Advantages: Superb acting, engaging storyline
Disadvantages: Kassovitz is miscast as a skinhead
WHAT IS IT: La Haine is a French film - shot in black and white and released in 1995 - directed and written by Mathieu Kassovitz. It is in French with English subtitles and is around 90 minutes long. The film centres around 3 young men living on an impoverished housing estate in France. Vinz (Vincent Cassel), a French Jew, is full of rage at the injustices he is subjected to and the constant state of tension between the police and local youths in ...

District 13 is an exciting, and fast-paced action film.
Advantages: Just a brilliant film
Disadvantages: Subtitles
...story line about a French district that has been shut off from the rest of the world and crime reigns. The free-running is awesome in the film and the actors are perfectly cast.
There are 2 options before you start watching, either you can watch with subtitles or dubbed. I found that the dubbed version was very unnerving as it was dubbed with voices that did not fit the characters. I prefer the subtitled version, although I do need to be awake to ...

Speed Cameras Beware!
Advantages: Wackier than the first, yet more high speed thrills!
Disadvantages: Sometimes the plots a bit too wacky
Taxi 2, the sequel to the original mad cap French driving antics of Taxi. And I'm pleased to announce to you all now, that it's absolutely no different. It's still madder, faster and packed with more tyre squealing than an entire years worth of Top Gear!
Nice to see the French are on form then!
Taxi 2 is rated as a '12' certificate, which you have to label as odd, as it seems to feature just as much, if not more swearing, random violence, and light ...
...above features are what 'make' taxi 2, and indeed, are the signature aspects of the 'taxi' lineage.
The cast is largely similar to that of the original taxi, with the ever cool Samy Naceri playing the role of racing/taxi driver Daniel Morales, who, due to his ever increasing speeding, is pulled into the police force to once again help his willing yet entirely useless friend, and police officer Émilien who is played very convincingly by Frédéric ...
