Nice video,

Saw the poster knocked out by the poster and it looked like fun. Simple story, lots of action. And the action is well done. Varied stunts. And before that I watched the movie. Music is smooth, sometimes completely out of place. But this just looks very easy. The parkour/freerunning is anyways seemed worth watching.

There was also a scene where they jump through a window that reminded me of "The Bourne Ultimatum".

Again very easy to look away.

3*

Nice smooth video. The action looked good. That freerunning is still fun to watch. The story was decent, but didn't really get me. The humor didn't really work for me either.

Moralistic viewing.

Stereotype French, indeed - not that the French are like that, but the television films they produce do have a kind of atmosphere about them - and this one is dripping with that too. Not bad per se, I like that. But this one is something different, there is a good bit of morality underneath, which makes it a bit like a youth film or a school film. Fortunately, there are also some nice freerunning scenes to lighten up the story. But it is the story that is a bit difficult for me, just a bit too neat and too committed. With that, it stumbles a bit over an excess of good intentions. It's not about the acting, camera work and the locations, they are fine.
