In this bonus edition of The Pod Charles Cinecast, your hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas are back with a Brucie Bonus, with the return of BRUCE WILLS US – a bonus series where we occasionally dip into the films of Bruce Willis. And this time, we are joined by special guest, cinema Duty Manager and Filmmaker, and Bruce Willis fanboy Chevy Mclaren – talking Richard Donner's 2006 action thriller, 16 BLOCKS, starring Bruce Willis and Mos Def.

Bruce Willis plays ageing alcoholic cop, Jack Mosley, who is assigned the task of escorting a witness, Mos Def as Eddie Bunker, from police custody to a courthouse 16 blocks away. There are, however, chaotic forces at work, aka stupid Cops man, that prevent them from making it in one piece.

It's like a Die Hard movie, where a very normal cop has to go above and beyond to save the day, but it is even more compounded by this being the most broken down Bruce Willis you've ever seen. It's probably the Die Hard movie we should have got instead of Die Hard 4.0, but c'est la vie – we had to see Bruce jump off the wing of a jet plane.

So, get your alcoholic beverage of choice at the ready, and get prepared to travel 16 blocks with us, and this underrated gem of the mid-2000s.

"Days change, seasons change, people don't change."
