This very underrated action thriller is notable for its use of real-time action and for being the final film (for now) from legendary director Richard Donner. While not one of the more remarkable films in Willis’ resume, it definitely has its moments (many of them thanks to the surprisingly effective rapper-turned-actor Mos Def, as a prisoner being transported the titular “16 Blocks”). If you’ve never seen it, seek it out.
