Action Picks

Cole Reed watches his billionaire boss get murdered, takes the blame, and boards a cargo ship on a one-man crusade that drags him into an international conspiracy. Jason Statham does what he does best here, tight close-quarters action and constant forward drive, directed by Jean-François Richet. Screenings are thin this week, so plan ahead if you want to catch this English-language action thriller in Düsseldorf.

Undercover cop Brian O'Conner infiltrates Dominic Toretto's street-racing crew while chasing a string of big-rig hijackings, and he has to pick a side. This is a returning action crime thriller with Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, and the racing hits harder in English on a big screen in Düsseldorf. Chances to see it are scarce this week, so take the shot if it fits your schedule.
