Re: District B13 - quick review
I saw this while on a trip to Nashville, and found it to be better then expected. I remember seeing this as an option during one of this years film festivals and wasn’t able to see it due to conflicting movie times. It appears to be available on DVD although I think a region free player is required.
This movie starts out great with a kick ass sound track that goes perfectly with Leito (David Belle) ability to jump all over the place as he runs through his apartment complex trying to out maneuver the local gangs. These thugs drive supped up cars with the main guy driving a Subaru.
Things slow down a bit when his sister finds herself a hostage and corrupt police place Leito in prison.
A weapon of mass destruction is stolen and placed in the District and it’s up to an ass-kicking detective Damien (Cyril Raffaelli) with the help a former resident and current prisoner to get it disarmed.
This was a lot of fun to watch and it’s hard to believe that it was made in 2004. I think its time for a worldwide sequel.
