District 13: Ultimatum

"Extraordinary! The gravity-defying and bone-breaking action is amazing."

Best known for its blistering action sequences, the District 13 movie was hailed a massive success within the Parkour/Freerun scene. The follow up ‘D13: Ultimatum’ is looking to outdo it in every dept and with the action now wrapped, it won’t be too long to wait in order to see it up close and personal. .Two years have passed since elite police officer Damien Tomasso (Cyril Raffaelli) teamed up with reformed vigilante Leito (parkour originator David Belle) to save the notorious District 13, a racially charged ghetto populated by violent drug dealing gangs and vicious killers. Despite government promises to maintain order, the state of the district has deteriorated, and a group of corrupt cops and elected officials are conspiring to cause civil unrest in D13, looking for an excuse to raze the area and cash in on its redevelopment. Now Damian and Leito must join forces again, and use their mastery of martial arts and their unique physical skills to bring peace to the neighborhood by any means necessary... before a proposed nuclear air-strike wipes it off the map. With bone crunching fights and death defying leaps, this adrenaline charged sequel takes the groundbreaking parkour action from DISTRICT B13 to thrilling new heights.

The SORCERER’S APPRENTICE

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer, director Jon Turteltaub and Actor Nicolas Cage team up again to bring us The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, an upcoming epic romantic comedy adventure about a sorcerer and his hapless apprentice who are swept into the center of an ancient conflict between good and evil. Walt Disney has officially released the Sorcerer’s Apprentice movie trailer, watch it below:

Plot:

“Balthazar Blake (Nicolas Cage) is a master sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan trying to defend the city from his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath (Alfred Molina). Balthazar can’t do it alone, so he recruits Dave Stutler (Jay Baruchel), a seemingly average guy who demonstrates hidden potential, as his reluctant protégé. The sorcerer gives his unwilling accomplice a crash course in the art and science of magic, and together, these unlikely partners work to stop the forces of darkness. It’ll take all the courage Dave can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes the Sorcerer’sApprentice.”

Looks like the Sorcerer’s Apprentice is going to be much darker than what I was expecting! Those gorgeous special effects really catch my attention, plus Nicolas Cage looks quite good as a sorcerer, can’t say as much about Jay Baruchel though…

Release Date: 16 July 2010
