Review of Yamakasi

Yamakasi (2001)
8/10
Cool Free Running, Very Luc Besson
25 August 2005
Warning: Spoilers
A group of Parisian free runners who follow a samurai type ethic, need to raise 400,000 francs, to arrange for a heart to be transported from a private company in Switzerland to Paris to save a boys life. They decide to steal from the 7 directors of the company because they will end up giving the money back to them for the heart anyways.

So begins a frantic 6 and a half hour stealing spree, where they manage to steal 172,500 in cash and fence stolen items to make up the rest. They get caught but lucky for them, a friend of theirs is a police inspector, who backs up their story and they get released due to lack of evidence.

Free running tricks and aerobatics are exceptional. Well worth a look
