Today we watched:
16 Blocks
This movie stars Bruce Willis and Mos Def. I think this is the first thing I saw Mos Def in and I gotta say, he is probably my favorite part of this movie. Bruce Willis is good too but you kinda know what to expect from him, especially as someone playing a cop, although a different kind of cop than he usually plays. He is actually kind of like the character he played in Sin City, sort of a broken down cop at the end of his career.
I think this is a very overlooked movie. I think the title and the images provoke notions of something other than what the movie turns out to be, which is actually kind of a nice surprise. Its much more character driven than an action type movie, which is what the trailers and the posters kind of present it as.
Anyway it's a good movie. Just because I own a movie does not mean it is good, as you will see... but so far the first 3 have been winners.
