Brick Mansions (2014)
A very Hollywood remake of District 13

I saw this picture not because is Paul Walker's last movie, but because it is David Belle's latest. Founder of Parkour, I already saw his amazing stunts in both District 13 movies, along with Cyril Raffaelli excellent action scenes where it shows all the training he's had with acrobatics, shotokan karate and wushu.
Except for Belle's updated stunts, there's nothing else to see here.
Over-explained characters, "softened" plot, sympathetic villains; if you want to know how Hollywood dumbs down movies there's nothing better than to watch this and the original District 13 back to back. From the use of camera speed to the editing of fight scenes, the original french movies are far superior.
