I saw the original years ago via NF disk. Detroit (not Paris) has bricked orf it worst ghetto and only lets food in and very little out. Paul Walker goes undercover to recruit a former cop killer to find and disarm a neutron bomb that has been captured by the kingpin of Brick Mansions. This film has almost as much action as 'Raid 2' with toned down violence. There was little real acting and fortunately the action doesn't require it.
This was Paul Walker's last full feature. To me he was always a "good fucker" and his true personality always seem to transcend his parts. I'll miss him because he made the best B-movies he could. Bon Voyage, Paul.
Must see for action fans.
