It's a totally **** story, but I don't doubt the parkour action will be great. I've already seen a french parkour movie. They were climbing flats and had the police on their ***. Don't know the name anymore thoughhttp://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-indifferent.gif

I've already seen the movie in french, it was pretty cool, action is fantastic, sure, the plots about people defusing a bomb, but all action movies have that nowadays so don't be hatin' http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-wink.gif it's a great movie

i cant remember the big guard's name but i can remember it really fits him.
btw i believe they left the B in the translated name because of the scene where they tell them the code that ends with ...B13.
otherwise it wouldn't make much sence to the american viewers.
