Review|16 Blocks (2006)

Category: Movies
Genre: Action/Suspense
Starring: Bruce Willis, Mos Def, David Morse
An old detective is tasked to take a witness to the courthouse. Fellow cops are out to get the witness cause he will be testifying against them [the cops].
This isn't exactly your traditional Willis film. It has a slower pace and lends to the character of Willis as being old and tired. Sadly the whole film feels old and tired.

I wouldn't recommend this if you are tired or sleepy, you might fall asleep in the theater.
