Banlieu 13

B13 a.k.a. Banlieu 13
by Luc Besson

Banlieu 13 adalah suatu kawasan suburban di Paris yang terkenal penuh dengan kriminalitas dan agar dapat ditangani, didirikan dinding di sekelilingnya.
Seorang polisi, Damien, ditugaskan untuk 'masuk' dan 'menyamar' di sana, tetapi misi yang dijalaninya untuk mencari bom ternyata tidak seperti yang dipikirkan..

Dari segi pengembangan cerita memang tidak terlalu oke, tapi untuk action terutama adegan kejar-kejarannya (orang, bukan mobil lho) patut diacungi jempol.
