Brick Mansions Move Review

First off, lets have a minute of silence for everyone's well loved actor - Paul Walker.
*One Minute of Silence*

I have to say that seeing him in front of the big screen was really sad and he's greatly missed and absolutely an amazing actor which can never be replaced so for all Paul Walker fans, even if you may not like Parkour, you have gotto watch his amazing performance in Brick Mansions because its one of his last films (Beside FF7, which was filmed halfway).
Brick Mansions (PG13 - Some Violence & Brief Coarse Language)
In a dystopian Detroit, abandoned brick mansions left from better times now house only the most dangerous criminals. Unable to control the crime, the police constructed a colossal containment wall around this area to protect the rest of the city. For undercover cop Damien Collier (Paul Walker) everyday is a battle against corruption. For Lino (David Belle), everyday is a fight to live an honest life.

Their paths never should have crossed, but when drug kingpin, Tremaine (RZA) kidnaps Lino's girlfriend, Damien reluctantly accepts the help of the fearless ex-convict, and together they must stop a sinister plot to devastate the entire city. With stylised action featuring thrilling Parkour stunts (David Belle is the co-founder of this physical training discipline), Brick Mansions puts an entertaining twist on the action genre.
Genre: Action/ Crime
Running Time: 90 Minutes
Release Date: 24th April 2014

Lets shift off the focus of the fact that this is Paul Walker's last film and focusing on the movie itself - I truly loved it and yes, Brick Mansions is the English remake of District 13 but I have never watched that cause its in French (and PSSSST...David Belle was also playing Lino in District 13!) Some of you may or may not know this but David Belle truly knows how to Parkour because he is one of the co-founders of Parkour itself so how cool is that!? The stunts were amazing and so smooth and I have a new found respect for Parkour.

I don't understand how can anyone play a good cop with an inner thug self as well as Paul Walker. As usual his character is funny, witty and oh so charming and when you pair both he and David Belle together, the action chemistry is AH-MAZING.

Brick Mansions feature a hell lot of Parkour and fight scenes and its almost 80% action based. Its not entirely very thrilling nor nerve wrecking but there's just something about it that makes you really excited about the whole thing and you can't wait to see how it turns out.

I truly don't think that Brick Mansions was overhyped. Its as good as it sounds and its even better when you get to watch David Belle and Paul Walker's witty remarks and power packed action scenes together. I totally enjoy how Lino is so Parkour based and how Damien is just about the fighting and they almost never fight the same way because Damien doesn't know how to Parkour and Lino is all about that. So when it comes to escaping from the thugs, Lino easily just glides through everything and Damien's just stunned. Haha.

I really really enjoyed Brick Mansions and I think as a movie, its definitely worth watching. I almost cried at the end because I know that I'll never get to see Paul Walker in any new movies anymore and when the credits rolled to the condolences for Paul Walker - everyone in the theatre started clapping. RIP Paul Walker, its been months but you'll always be in our heart.
