Just watch the original B-13
14 May 2014
Look.. After Oldboy which is the unnecessary remake of the original Korean version, what should Hollywood do? I know, lets copy and paste another kick-ass movie and hope that the people wouldn't notice!!

Well guess what Hollywood, i do notice. It is from B-13.

Brick Mansion, i hate to say, is one of the worst copy and paste movies out there. It is all the same as the original! Even Worse, it is worse than the original. I personally love Paul Walker and i teared up a bit in the end of the movie, BUT, i love the original Damien even more. The original Damien was kicking ass and jumping around, eventually having a very good chemistry with the Leto (the original Lino). This? this is just bland. Their chemistry wasn't convincing, the fighting sequence somewhat sucked and their relied heavily on shaky cameras. I kinda felt dizzy watching the fight scene. Lino was like Leto, in a way. Because both are the same parkour masters so yea, nothing more to say other than good job.

But its probably Paul Walker's last movie. And as a fan myself, i gotta really give this movie at least a two.

One thing.... The director needs to realize, life isn't all predictable. It maybe the actor's last movie. So please, don't immortalize him with a copy and paste movie. Its just sad and wrong. Just plain wrong.

2 stars for Paul walker. R.I.P Paul.
