Does this theme seem odd? Anyway it was the movie The Walk, which I haven't seen, that made me think of other movies that had tall buildings that were like an important aspect of the movie, almost like another character. So here are my picks.

Dredd (2012)
I've picked this one a couple of times before, but it's so perfect for this week so here it is. The gist, in a dystopian future, two cops are trapped in a fortified building filled with gangsters. The only way to get out is to go all the way to the top of the tower and defeat the big boss.
 
Attack the Block (2011)
Inhabitants of a city tower block try to defend it against an alien invasion. It's quite a fun urban Brit comedy.

Man on a Ledge (2012)
A man stands on a ledge threatening to jump, just as a diamond heist is also happening. I don't remember this as much, but I do remember enjoying it.
