Trivia
Chadwick Boseman's last theatrically released film before his death on August 28, 2020.

Goofs
When police cars were rushing into Chinatown, those who can read Chinese can clearly see that the sign on the archway above reads "Philadelphia Chinatown", not the Manhattan Chinatown in which the story took place. In fact, New York City's Chinatown does not have an archway.

Quotes
Andre Davis: We got twenty-one bridges in and out of Manhattan. Shut them down. Three rivers. Close them. Four tunnels. Block them. Stop every train and loop the subways. Then, we flood the island with blue.

Pretty good

Overall I thought this was a pretty good action thriller. While the storyline was a bit simplistic and predictable, the execution was top notch. Boseman played the part of hardened cop really well, and the supporting characters held their own. The storyline had good flow and kept up a good pace throughout. Enjoyable and worth the time to watch.
