16 Blocks Ratings & Reviews

February 8, 2025
If you loved Tears Of The Sun or Unbreakable, you'll love this too. Bruce is in my opinion one of the best character actors of his generation and this films gives him room to show that. A great storyline, fantastic acting, Mos Def is brilliant also, you won't be disappointed.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Willis and Def -- funny even if he overdoes the whiny shrieking -- are a terrific team.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
16 Blocks is a police procedural in the change-your-life spirit of Oprah. And I say this with the deepest respect for both genres.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Another urban action thriller that's better than some, worse than most and so forgettable that it's possible to forget it while watching it.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Hiding among all the uniforms and bullets, it turns out, is an actors' movie, and two actors more than capable of hitting their marks.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
The actors seem to have inspired the hack director Richard Donner and the cat-and-mouse game is much grittier than one would expect from the creator of the Lethal Weapon series.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
Its dialogue is sassy, its plotting is taut (maybe too taut, as key segues are AWOL), but 16 Blocks has more on the brain than mere distraction. It aims to save souls.
Detroit News
Tom Long
While 16 Blocks may be two blocks and three left-hand turns too long, it's still one sturdy cop thriller, filled with grit, corruption, action and redemption and fueled by strong performances from Bruce Willis, Mos Def and David Morse.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
The Lethal Weapon movies were all about charismatic actors breathing life into stock characters. That doesn't happen with Willis and Def.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
16 Blocks is the best of this trio [of recent crooked cop movies, including Dirty and Running Scared], thanks to the winning performances of its stars -- a restrained Bruce Willis and a very likable Mos Def.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Richard Donner still has it.
UGO
Brian Tallerico
There's a fine line between old-fashioned and cliched.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
A happier surprise is the smart work of director Richard Donner: 16 Blocks is all jumble and jangle-crowds, snarled traffic, and discordant car horns.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
I thought this film is one long corny clich.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
It's the clamor and weak script that make it feel like a flatfoot trying to chase down a better movie.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
16 Blocks feels like a remake of Clint Eastwood's The Gauntlet. The Gauntlet was exciting nonsense. 16 Blocks is just dutiful, until all the duty crowds out any fun.
Chicago Tribune
Allison Benedikt
In the end it's not the predictable action but the lack of chemistry and camaraderie that sinks 16 Blocks.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Short on words and long on action, Richard Donner's adrenaline-spiked action flick is a compendium of familiar genre components.
Zap2it.com
Daniel Fienberg
This is a dour, colorless depiction of the city, skipping urban realism for some kind of heightened action ennui.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
They don't blossom, however, and all Donner and company can bring to life is a solid 'good,' and while that's sure to be more than enough for the majority who see I still wanted more.
