If it is anything like that French movie District B 13 it should be decent. As long as it has free running...everything has to have free running now.
Note: It may have a different name, but when I first heard of this style/sport several years ago it was just called free running. For the ignorant of this sport it is what has been seen in the foot chase of Casino Royal, that white guy who jumped from the chopper in Live Free or Die Hard (that guy was one of the District B 13 actors), as well as that crazy Nike commercial with the guy being chased by the chicken."The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the Blood of Patriots and tyrants" Thomas Jefferson

Happy KH? I will just take it down to the quote in common usage, as used by patriots now and used by the radical extremist McVeigh (or however his name is spelled)."The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the Blood of Patriots and tyrants" Thomas Jefferson

OK so I'm seeing good reviews for this. but then I read silly stuff about cat food (from the Ebert review). So err, umm how can a movie with cat food as a plot device be any good? So I'm looking for second opinions. How does this movie stand a few weeks after you've all watched it?

I'd say its Karma but I think the guy was just a kid during apartheid.Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.
The simple suggestion of a true change scandalizes and terrifies modern man. -Nicolás Gómez Dávila

Sorry, some spoilers here:
Great movie, who reckons there will be a sequel where they come back and destroy us?
Why did he (the alien scientist) not take the rest of his kind with him? I can imagine in a human situation, if all humans had gone nuts and only he remained sane, yes I can see why he would leave his own kind behind, but maybe they weren't nuts? What other reasons could there be. Anyway he seemed pretty pissed when he was inside the lab (you could almost see what he was saying, not caring about all the primitive technology firing about him, "these guys are ****ed the moment I get back home"), I have no doubt they will come back with vengeance, and I'd love to see that movie.be free
