A follow-up to the hyperkinetic District 13, which also introduced cinemagoers to the breakneck speed and agility of parkour (aka free-running), this brings together the original's buffed stars, Cyril Raffaelli and David Belle, in a Parisian conspiracy thriller of frankly preposterous dimensions.

Forget the plot, if you can, and enjoy the balletic stuntwork and fight sequences, which go way beyond camp: I never expected to see fisticuffs in which an original Van Gogh is used as a weapon, but if you want to check, here's how.
