Brick Mansions

Undercover and never Outgunned

This film is set in a walled off city in a bleak and run-down part of Detroit, which is now home to dangerous criminals. An undercover cop finds himself teamed up with a fearless ex-convict, and together they must stop a sinister plot to devastate the entire city, organised by the inhabitants of the walled city. Expect plenty of action and a threadbare plot. This is director Besson's remake of his previous French film. It was Walker's last film.

99 minutes.
