description |
-Bruce
Willis
-Mos
Def
Directed
by
Richard
Donner
(SUPERMAN,
LETHAL
WEAPON),
16
BLOCKS
is a
tale
of
corrupt
police
officers,
a
Grand
Jury
witness,
and
one
cop
who
is
trying
to
do
the
right
thing.
Jack
Mosley
(Bruce
Willis)
is
weary.
A
lame
leg
and
a
love
affair
with
alcohol
make
him
a
virtual
joke
at
the
NYPD.
Tired
and
ready
to
head
home,
Mosley
is
assigned
one
last
job
before
he
can
punch
out:
pick
up
petty
thief
Eddie
Bunker
(Mos
Def)
in
lock-up
and
transport
him
to
the
courthouse
where
he
is
set
to
testify
before
the
Grand
Jury.
Only
16
New
York
City
blocks
separate
the
two,
but
it
might
as
well
be a
million
miles.
Soon,
the
officer
and
his
charge
find
themselves
under
fire,
becoming
the
target
of
someone
who
wants
to
keep
Bunker
from
testifying.
Escaping
the
initial
attack,
Mosley
calls
for
backup
only
to
discover
that
corrupt
police
officers,
including
his
ex-partner
Frank
Nugent
(David
Morse),
want
Bunker
out
of
the
picture.
Mosley
surprises
everyone--maybe
even
himself--by
doing
the
right
thing
and
saving
Bunker
from
certain
death.
With
only
118
minutes
to
get
the
witness
to
the
courthouse
before
the
case
will
be
thrown
out,
Mosley
pulls
out
every
trick
in
the
book.
He
maneuvers
Bunker
through
the
crowded,
confined
streets
of
Manhattan’s
Chinatown
towards
their
destination,
trying
to
avoid
the
police
officers
who
are
hunting
them
down
as
they
race
against
time.
Willis
fully
inhabits
Mosley,
a
washed-up
cop
who
is
haunted
by
his
past
decisions,
and
Mos
Def
is
right
on
target
as
Bunker,
a
chatty
career
criminal
being
hunted
just
as
he
is
ready
to
turn
his
life
around
and
make
something
of
hims.
