Brick Mansions

It's RoboCop Detroit sans "RoboCop" meets "Escape from New York" meets "Fast & Furious" with an undercover cop (Paul Walker) and a do-the-right-thing con (David Belle) must rescue a nuclear device and an ex-girlfriend from a powerful crime lord (RZA) in dystopian Detroit. This action-packed Luc Besson remake of the French film "District B13" features thrilling car chases, amazing acrobatics, and slick choreographed close quarters hand-to-hand combat. The director Camille Delamarre also did "Taken 2" & "Transporter 3" if you get my drift. It is a guilty pleasure fun thrill ride for adrenalin junkies.

Alien gives it 3 "parkour performance" stars out of 4.
