My Review:

Way better than I thought it was going to be. Bruce Willis as a burnt out alcoholic cop who gets the chance to redeem himself and steps up to do the right thing. It’s a difficult choice, but a good one. Mos Def is the witness he’s assigned to protect. At one point the movie turns into a buddy film. Some hilarious lines, very entertaining. Another take on the good guys are the bad guys theme. Teens and up because of the violence.
