markaalbrecht OK... Some movies are believable, some movies are hard to believe but possible.... This movie didn't make an attempt to be be either. The acting was so so and all the gymnastics made the movie unbearable; the first fight scene set the tone for the movie. The first 15 minutes felt like an hour and you know you're watching a failed movie when it tries to impress you with unrealistic fight sequences. But to top it all off.... You have a sociopathic, murderous drug dealer who has a change of life at the very end..... OMG.Do not waste your time unless you're watching it for free.....and then try to stomach it.

Allen Williams This film had few good things to say about it...Paul Walker was fun...David Belle has moves that puts Spiderman to shame...And Catalina Denis (WOW) It's almost scary how freaking gorgeous that woman is....But other than that...This movie was a mess...I understand that this film is a remake of a French film called District B13 which also stars David Belle...And that David Belle is simply playing the same character for this film...That's all well and dandy...But clearly the amount of work and thought that was put into the original did not translate for Brick Mansions...Especially when somebody thought it would be a good idea to cast RZA for the part of Tremaine Alexander...It's bad enough that RZA's broken English is so bad that he can't even say the name of his own character without spitting all over himself...But to sound like Elmer Fudd while he's doing it just made me sick to my stomach...This movie was completely ruined by his presence and that's all there is too it...

Arne District 13 is a great movie! This is a wannabe copy. I don't mind copying movies to reach a broader audience, but somehow this movie fails to capture the details that made the original movie great.The beginning scene where Belle escapes had less wow-factor than D13, and the music was way off. The scene was ruined. This is occurring throughout the movie.It might be the director, I won't point fingers, but D13 director also made Taken, the director of Brick Mansion made Taken 2, just saying.It should be mentioned that the acting is way off too. The main villain is good, the mains (Belle, Walker) are decent, but so many of the side characters horribly acted. Without exaggeration I have seen student films with way better acting.In short: Avoid at all cost if you can bear subtitles/know french ;)

last_dragon88 I loved this movie...now I've seen a few reviews calling this one garbage and stuff compared to the original but I've never seen the original and never heard of it until I saw reviews comparing it to the original. So my review is based off what I saw. It was good...kind of reminded me of Fast & Furious for which Paul Walker is famous for but with a different angle. The character, Lino was awesome, that guy really knew how to get around. Paul Walker has once again...blown me away with his acting...so sad that he's gone we lost such an amazing human being and actor. But I will be suggesting this movie to anyone who loves good action movies like this.
