Good movie. The action is good, the acting too, nice twist. It has some problems and it's not perfect but it's a really good movie.

This surprised me. Not that it has any true twists or subverts expectations, but just that it manages to have several tense sequences and entertaining shootouts. It’s a fun watch if you let it be just that.

75/100 Better title: "Look the Devil in the Eye." This is said twice in the film. 21 bridges is not a tangible image nor are they used as significant locations.

This is said twice in the film. 21 bridges is not a tangible image nor are they used as significant locations. This is the production values of Captain America: Winter Soldier applied to a 1980s NY cops movie script. It's watchable and well-paced. Critics imagining director or scripters were attempting to "say something" about 2019 I think are imagining things. I saw no evidence this was more than 1980s tropes assembled and packaged. Do corrupt cops still do what is suggested here? I kind of doubt it. If you want up-to-date realism in your cop stories, you can't do better than Blue Bloods on CBS.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 21 Bridges: a review by James H Roby

At a time when a stark divide exists between the police and the African American community, it might be a little risky releasing a motion picture containing those two populations. But when the picture is helmed by producers and an actor of literal super heroic proportions, I’d say it’s an even bet. 21 Bridges starring the hero, Chadwick Boseman (Black Panther), and produced by the Russo Brothers (Avengers: Endgame) is a thrill ride we haven’t seen the likes of in a while. Boseman’s character, Andre Davis, is a second generation NYC policeman with unquestionable ethics but, well, slightly more questionable methods. He’s got eight shootings under his belt in ten years. So when a pair of crooks murder seven cops in a robbery gone wrong, the police puts the cop killer killer on the case. After all, he’s the best man for the job…or is he?
There’s a twist of sorts in the movie that’s not terribly deep, still it pushes the plot forward. What should be a simple manhunt quickly devolves into a mystery and Andre won’t let go until he’s found the truth. The movie is fast paced and has the feel of a modern techno-thriller with various elements of the NYPD coming together to track down the killers. There’s also some ‘required’ moments found in every action movie and Boseman delivers perfectly. There’s one scene featured in the trailers where Andre reminds a white FBI agent to have perfect diction when referring to him as a ‘trigger’. That’s about as deep as the movie goes into America’s current Black vs Blue dilemma and really that’s enough. Otherwise, Andre Davis is a cop’s cop – vowing to do anything for his ‘family’ (the police) and threatening to flood Manhattan with ‘blue’ to catch his criminals. Boseman is backed up with a great cast of Sienna Miller as Frankie Burns, Andre’s partner for the manhunt and J. K. Simmons as police Captain Matt McKenna, stepping out of his familiar role of the Farmers Insurance man and Spider-Man’s nemesis, J Jonah Jameson. Add to the list Stephan James as Michael Trujillo and Taylor Kitsch as Ray Jackson, the movie’s villains. The relatively short run time of 110 minutes actually works in the movie’s favor as it keeps the picture tight with few wasted scenes. The only faults I felt was the soundtrack didn’t seem to match the onscreen action and the story’s somewhat simple mystery.
Here’s hoping Chadwick Boseman will don Andre Davis’ badge after his next appearance as the Black Panther.

The movie is a awesome crime thriller with great acting, directing, and music. The pacing of the movie is great, it never slows down and the action is great. I really enjoyed it.

Good film but not great. It is fairly predictable. Still worth checking out. Chadwick Boseman does a great job.

We've got to give Boseman some credit for his acting here. Besides, the movie itself is quite an entertaining watch, regardless of the familiar plot, it'll still keep you curious.

A very good action thriller.

'21 Bridges' has an excellent showing from Chadwick Boseman, everything else isn't quite up to his level though is all still very good. The support cast, which includes the likes of J. K. Simmons and TaylorA very good action thriller.

'21 Bridges' has an excellent showing from Chadwick Boseman, everything else isn't quite up to his level though is all still very good. The support cast, which includes the likes of J. K. Simmons and Taylor Kitsch, pacing and music are my main pluses for this 2019 flick.

It's far from perfect of course, but I personally I got what I wanted from it and would happily watch it again.… Expand
