Assault on Precinct 13 (2005)

On New Year's Eve, in a precinct that is scheduled to be deactivated, a highly dangerous criminal must be incarcerated for lack of a proper place. The problem is, he knows too much, and some people just do not like that.

Reasonably effective thriller, a remake which to be honest I prefer to the original 1976 film. As many have complained, the film is basically a bunch of clichés, but I don't think this is a big problem. Not everything in the plot is plausibly worked out, but that is not a big problem either. It is a modest film, but it works.

Rating: 50
