The movie looks passable, but everyone knows that movies like this in the United States have that virtue. Good people can always save themselves from danger, and show their feelings for family and personal heroism from time to time.
Most of the plot is passable, but the big turn at the end is too fast, and it's hard to swallow. So, at the end of the film, it would have been better if Bruce Willis could have died.
Also, look at the Chinese translations of these films:
"Banlieue 13" --- Violent 13 Block, Violent Special Zone, Violent Block
"Assault on Precinct 13" --- Blood Splatter No. 13 Police Station, Fire Line 13, Annihilation 13 District
"16 Blocks"---16 blocks, sniper blockade, impact blockade,
just looking at the name, the bullets are flying all over the place, which is annoying.
How can it be compared to the strange and changeable names of my Chinese movies, "The Promise", "The Golden Armor in the City", "The Banquet", and "Ink Attack", all of which are Wang Ting's stories but not a single word copied from each other, lo and behold!
