    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      In the scene where Leito (David Belle) is being chased near the beginning of the film, he is using Parkour, which was invented by Belle himself and influenced by his father Raymond Belle. There weren't any special effects (wirework, computer graphics...) used in 90% of the Parkour scenes.
    • Goofs
      The keypad on the bomb is inconsistent between views. In most close-ups it shows, top to bottom: '1 2 3 a' '4 5 6 b' '7 8 9 0', but when Damien tries to enter the last digit, the key 3 is in the bottom right corner.
    • Quotes

      Damien: You really think the government would kill two million people just for having a few problems?

      Leïto: Six million died for not having blonde hair and blue eyes.

    • Crazy credits
      The Europacorp logo turns into a writing on a stone wall at the beginning of the movie.

    Go see this movie!
    Hands down, the BEST action movie I have ever seen. B-13 raises the bar for the action flick. Even those not typically into the action movie scene will appreciate this film. Non-stop creative and novel action sequences that are sure to wow even the toughest critic. Although slightly lacking in the plot department, this movie is sure to entertain and compensate for anything it lacks there with mind blowing action.

    Perhaps the most intriguing part of this movie is that it runs its full length with no stupid love story!! It is pure, unadulterated, beautiful action scenes the likes of which have never been seen.

    Go see this movie, you'll leave pumped!!
