Two years after the events depicted in DISTRICT 13 and once again set in the eponymous, lawless zone, DISTRICT 13 - ULTIMATUM finds those living within the walled, feral inner cities facing an even more terrifying existence than before. The walls have since become higher and the contained streets now under the rule of sinister and very influential gangs. The land itself has become divided into five ethnic neighbourhoods, each controlled by a boss thriving on the business of illegal trade. In a bid to control the turf and keep the inhabitants in order, the secret service once again dispatches Damien and Leito. But can just two men save the district from the chaos and destructions that now reigns?

Variety

Fun and frenetic sequel... With enough [references] to the 2005 French riots to be considered, if not political, at least timely, the [picture] skillfully blends combat with social messaging, in an explosive blend that should satisfy fans in Gaul and beyond
