District B-13

REALLY goofy French action flick with the most preposterous plot you could imagine. Take all of the worst plot points from all of the 80’s action flicks and all the Jackie Chan movies and it’s a start. The hero has to break out of jail, break back into the “forbidden zone”, fight off a hundred guys, save his enslaved sister, and defuse the bomb. Nevertheless, it’s enjoyable to watch the lead French dude jump around from rooftops and balconies. The stunts were breathtaking. And SOOO unsafe! The “producer” in me nearly had a coronary.
