banlieue 13

see jackie (chan) run, see jackie jump, see jackie kick ass. in this case, the jackies are a pair of french daredevils/stuntmen named david belle and cyril raffaelli. if you saw the old nike presto commercial featuring a guy jumping off of rooftops and shimmying spiderman-like up walls, you already know david belle. he's the founder of an urban sport called "parkour." as for the movie, it's all acrobatic action scenes interspersed with a ridiculous, yet slightly gripping, plot. overall, not a bad way to spend an hour and ten minutes of your life.
