What a great action movie this is. It is rare to see this quality in mainstream production without some stupid mistakes, but this one is perfect. Using excellent action sequences based on parkour(jumping and running on the streets of the cities and using their environment as an obstacles, you must have seen some videos :D ) and great directing it delivers insane amounts of fun. Set in a near future in a district that is filled with all kinds of illegal activities and crime, it follows Leïto, a man trying to live in this cesspool. The district is run by an ruthless criminal and when he and Leïto conflict over his sister shit will hit the fan. This is an old school type of action flick, no special effects, no wires, just good old bashing. It has a Jackie Chan vibe to it and the setting resembles Escape from New York, a perfect combination. There is a sequel that is also excellent so check it out. Enjoy.
