No need for CGI when you've got sweet moves, fast feet and a bottomless hoard of adrenaline.

Rating: C- --
Silly action with phony-looking stunts. And, the story? Don't get me started. Paul Chambers, CNN.

Rating: B --
It's easy to call this film a video action game starring real people, but that "real" part means a lot. I'd rather see a world-class martial artist like Raffaelli do his thing instead of a CGI simulacrum.

Christian Science Monitor
This sequel to the French actioner District B13 (2004) offers more of what made the original such a sublimely stupid pleasure.

If anyone is going to persuade fanboys to attend a movie with French subtitles, that man is Luc Besson.

Product Description:
The loud, intense, and explosive action saga BANLIEUE 13: ULTIMATUM is a sequel to the 2004 European blockbuster BANLIEUE 13. This second installment was directed by Patrick Alessandrin but initially gestated from the vision of writer-producer Luc Besson, also responsible for scripting and producing the first go-round. ULTIMATUM unfurls three years after the original, in the slightly dystopian realm of suburban Paris, circa 2013. Ultra-violence now riddles that sphere -- to such a degree that cops have imposed a lockdown on the area, to little avail. Significantly, the neighborhood is also formally subdivided into ethnic enclaves, including Arabic, Asian, Caucasian, and African. As the tale opens, a crack team of rogue cops pulls off a police assassination inside of the district, prompting the police chief (Daniel Duval) to try to persuade the president (Philippe Torreton) to bulldoze the area and let the cops cash in on the turf's real estate value. In response, two of the said rogues, Damien (Cyril Raffaelli) and Leito (David Belle), hit the streets, guns blazing, and exude all of the force at their disposal to save the region from complete obliteration.
