Brick Mansions Reviews and Ratings
-
Brick Mansions never slows down enough to let you enjoy the brilliance of David Belle’s liquid movements and never speeds up the story to keep you from yawning.
-
Paul Walker’s last completed film (Fast and Furious 7 is in the pipeline) before his untimely death, Brick Mansions has a considerably silly plot co-written by Luc Besson. There is no intensity or conviction in the proceedings and the acting is also amateurish at times barring Paul Walker. All the sentimentality in the world not withstanding, Brick Mansions is a darn silly film.

This is an action movie with loads of stunts, explosions, fights and parkour. You can even think of it as Paul Walker‘s final finished work. Don’t think too much, the movie is all about taking your brain and leaving it at home. At the end of the day, you will see fists flying and people falling. Not Luc Besson‘s finest work, but it is passable, considering the other options. So sit back, and enjoy a remake.

If watching people jump across walls and buildings gives you a boner, then go ahead and spend your money on this D-grade action flick canvassing as something better. Else you’d be better off playing Frogger or renting the original French version. This should definitely not be chalked up on Walker’s legacy.
