    Was thinking of going to see the Grudge 2 on Friday, might see this instead since unless it gets good numbers it won't be shown elsewhere and also won't show for long in those cinemas. Have to see what next week's times are like though...

    saw this ... last night. The film itself is throwaway, basically and advertisement for parkour and while the parkour is cool (IMO the best scene is at the beginning when laiko is escaping from the highrise)the film is destroyed by the dubbing.
    The lead character and his sister are from a french ghetto/suburb which they call a barrio (spanis term) in the movie and get this they both have thicker 'oirish' accents than anyone in the commitments...it's unbelievable. All the characters in the film, even though they're supposed to be from around Paris have accents from different countries... it's crazy

    why do they have Irish accents, are they Irish actors?

    I saw the trailer and I was like why are you boucing of walss just run, and why is ladder built into a building? and why the hell would someone jump out a window, without being prepared to catch a swinging rope with a man already on it?

    I see there is a free running game coming out, I guess it will be like onty hawk which is a great game that works really well, but I don't know about the speed of it compared to skate boarding.

    thats the thing, they're all french actors, in fact the male character with the Irish accent is David Belle.

    Dunno how you got a dub, But I went to see this in UGC a while back and it was subbed. Great film anyway, though at least one person walked out of the cinema within the first few minutes. A case of "Wtf? Why are they all speaking in foreign" I think... =/

    saw it in kerry in a cinema subbed, was very good.

    saw some of the dubbed version, its like they're taking the piss. boo urns.

    Absoloutely unreal movie,
    Some of the best parkour scenes I have seen yet.
    David Belle is some runner,managing to squeeze through tiny slots and dive out of windows is something beyond me!
