21 Bridges

Brian Kirk's 21 Bridges casts Chadwick Boseman as Andre Davis, a NY City cop who's spent his life trying to live up to the heroic legacy of his father. And living up to that legacy means Davis fights bad guys with dedicated zeal.

Get in his way and he will go through you if he can't go around you.

The plot of 21 Bridges centers on drug smuggling  -- in fact, there may be more cocaine in this flick than could be found on Wall Street in the 1980s. The plot is predictable, and some of Boseman's dialogue is stilted and stiff.

Despite the flaws, 21 Bridges is a watchable popcorn flick. (Especially if you're off work during Thanksgiving week and have some extra time to burn.)
