Review of Brick Mansions (2014) by Mirza Mohd S — 21 Jun 2014
This remake of the awesome french film District B13 (2004), retains almost everything from the original including its star David Belle, only here this time he is clearly overshadowed by the late Paul Walker.
Well there is nothing didn't try to say about the plot as the remake doesn't make any creative major addition or substitution. The late Paul Walker does a good job here & has great "bromance" with David Bell, which I felt was kind missing in the original.
He was able to balance the parkour of David Belle with his own raw-looking action. RZA continues to murmur his lines with a zombie expression. Seeing this as the last completed film by Paul Walker it doesn't disappoint & its kinda fun to watch an updated version of the original!
