Vin Diesel in a sci-fi action epic is something new for this star. Based on Maurice G. Dantec's dytopian sci-fi novel Babylon Babies, director Mathieu Kassovitz's film. Babylon A.D will soon have its Indiaan premier.
Diesel plays a mercenary known as Toorop who lives by a simple survivor's code: kill... or be killed. His
latest assignment has him smuggling a young woman named Aurora from a convent in Kazakhstan to New York City. Toorop, his new young charge Aurora and Aurora's guardian Sister Rebeka embark on a 6,000 mile journey. Facing obstacles at every turn, Toorop, the killer for hire, is tested like never before, in ways he could never have imagined - as he comes to understand that he is the custodian of the only hope for the future of mankind.
Babylon has rich atmosphere, impressive sets and action pieces, but the movie is too similar to films such as Children of Men and Doomsday for it to become a trend-setter.
