The movie is a direct sequel to District 13 and takes place 3 yrs after the first. As we can tell from the opening credits, the slum is still in shambles, the is no law and something needs to be done.
That aside, you don't watch movies like this for plot and story, -Yes it has one, and yes its decent-you watch for the action, the fights, and in this case, the Parkour. For those that don't know, parkour is (loosely defined as) running and jumping on walls or other obstacles and in this flick there's Parkour all the way. Parkour chases, parkour fights, and parkour deaths. I imagine the women would watch to keep their men company, but also to gander at the shirt-less and sweaty athletic men.
Its not a bad movie and the soundtrack is actually not bad. I liked it and I say you should check it out on a slow day, or with a few close friends. If the French can keep up with movies like this, maybe we can be friends.
Violence? The bulk is martial art violence, but some people do get shot.
Explosions? A small amount.
Nudity? But there is one gross out scene where a Cop goes undercover as a woman and the director saw fit to continually get shots of him in a thong. Major points lost for that right there.
