Trivia
Chadwick Boseman donated part of his own salary for '21 Bridges' to co-star Sienna Miller when the studio refused to match her demands.

Goofs
The scenes that show police helicopters flying over the city depict the red and green navigation lights on the incorrect sides of the helicopter. Green should be on the right and red on the left. This reveals that the helicopters are CGI.

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.

Not bad I guess!

The film was a pleasant surprise. Nothing new here but the camera work and action scenes were marvelous. Although the plot is not original the story was fine with good editing. Interesting take on "Manhattan island", however the script could have been better and acting was average at times. Nice Friday night flick!

When describing the robbers military history, it refers to them as Army, but then shows pictures of men wearing Marine uniforms? Why?
