District B13...Isn't That A Vitamin?

District B13 (2004) Rating: R

A French film with subtitles (for us English guys too lazy to learn French) this film is about a city that is isolated from the rest of Paris, due to high crime, poverty, etc and how the government treats the citizens of this particular area. An action flick, that is like a cross between Die Hard & Fast And The Furious with shitty "house" music as a soundtrack. Now to be fair, I'm not a fan of house music, so a fan might enjoy the soundtrack. For me, it gave me a headache. But despite the shit music, this movie was actually a very intense, fun action packed popcorn flick. But at the same time, it did have a message aside from just being a fun watch. It throws a nice big middle finger at the "man". I don't want to give away too much, because then there would be no point in you, the reader, watching. But I will say, I found myself wondering how the main characters were going to be able to survive living in a society with no rules, regulations or morals...or if they will.
