Review of District 13: Ultimatum (2009) by Fazeo F — 09 May 2010
District 13: Ultimatum (6/10) - Having enjoyed the first District 13 film I had high hopes for the sequel but after a rousing beginning the sequel just can't compare to the first film.
District 13: Ultimatum has a bigger budget and it shows, but the story is very weak and the pathetic and laughable attempts at political commentary in the film are so hackneyed and out of date that it just makes a mess of the film.
As for the action, the film is loaded with superb parkour action set pieces up front but surprisingly the second half of the film isn't as impressive action wise and the climax is a real let down. I am sorry but I have a rule about action films, they all need an exciting climax and this film just fizzles out at the end.
If you liked the first District 13 then maybe rent District 13: Ultimatum, but I wouldn't recommend it.
