In this sequel to 2004's "District 13," vigilante justice-keepers Damien (Cyril Raffaelli) and Leito (David Belle) are back in the outer-Paris ghetto of District 13 in order to save the impoverished, violence-riddled community. Controlled by five ruthless gang bosses jostling for ultimate power, District 13 is in dangerous decline. To save those living within, Damien and Leito must restore peace before the city's secret law enforcers take measures into their own hands.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

District 13 bites off more than it can chew with its political subtext and questionable script, but the many action sequences are never less than entertaining.

Amy Biancolli Houston Chronicle No need for CGI when you've got sweet moves, fast feet and a bottomless hoard of adrenaline. Rated: 3/4 Mar 5, 2010 Full Review Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle Mission accomplie. Rated: 3/5 Mar 5, 2010 Full Review Cliff Doerksen Chicago Reader This sequel to the French actioner District B13 (2004) offers more of what made the original such a sublimely stupid pleasure. Feb 25, 2010 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Though District 13: Ultimatum isn’t as easy a recommendation as its predecessor, the two movies will make a strong double feature. Rated: 3/4 Aug 22, 2023 Full Review Jason Best Movie Talk The first film showcased the awesome kinetic thrills of parkour or free running and the new movie's trick-free stunts and fights - performed by returning stars David Belle and Cyril Raffaelli - are even more jaw-dropping. Nov 24, 2020 Full Review Annalee Newitz io9.com This is a movie that never takes itself too seriously, except when it comes to action. Which is to say, it delivers on what it promises and keeps you entertained the entire time. May 23, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Matvey J It's very unpleasant to see evil side fight and win against the good side, especially when the scenario is trying to picture the evil as good Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/24 Full Review Matthew B Best of Movies/TV Series Collection Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/30/24 Full Review Audience Member French actions mixed with x-game death defining hopping all around are pretty fun, need some Kung Fu & plot master coaching to achieve the next level. Don't take it seriously, nothing make sense. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Not as original as the original (District B13 from 2004), this sequel offers a lot of the same action scenes, fights, and parkour as the original. But the story is a bit less interesting. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member It may not as good as the first film but the second district 13 movie offers a lot of cheesy action and fun. The movie boosts a lot of incredible stunts but the plot is a bit ridiculous and the dialogue is cheesy for the most part. Come for the action and stunts not the plot. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/26/20 Full Review steve d Perhaps not as good as the original but the action is fantastic and inventive and the story a lot of fun. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
