These types of films are going to be less fun without Walker pushing them along.

"Frankly, there are a lot of actors who have a lot of worse 'last films' on their credits."

It's fun to see Walker do a double take at a perilous move of Belle's and then find a less risky alternative. The pair seem like they're having a good time in this buddy action movie. It seems a fitting curtain call for a likable actor gone too soon.

Steer well clear.

It should be wilder, funnier, nuttier.

Follows the bog-standard formula perfected by Besson: combining functional storylining with competent action highlights and an occasional air of whimsy.

Brick Mansions is a non-starter: It chokes on its déjà vu, the hyperactive Mixmaster editing is exhausting and the characters' banter is so leaden it might violate federal emission standards.

Almost no one in this film is allowed to play to their strengths.

Fit to be condemned.

Favouring vitality over originality, this needless remake of District 13 comes with fleet-footed sequences but plenty of stumbles, and strains far too hard to be 'cool'.

This is ultimately a movie about class warfare and social oppression that isn't remotely science-fictional. It's real, and as dumb as this remake is, it sends you home thinking.

Routine all the way, although Belle's moves are thrilling to watch.
