Review of Brick Mansions (2014) by Ignatiy Vishnevetsky for AV Club — 23 Apr 2014
It’s a beat-for-beat remake of a movie whose plot was never meant to do anything except get characters to jump from rooftops, made by a less confident director (Camille Delamarre, one of the studio’s go-to editors) and set in a culture Besson has never been able to grasp.
It’s also a silly pile-up of exaggerated action clichés—and much of the time, it’s pretty fun.
