A simplistic plot, bleak characters and an overly wordy script that makes 96 minutes seem too long. “Wrong Place” (2022) is another eye-roller from Bruce Willis: the Declining Years. In what feels like a drawn-out episode of a bad TV show, Willis is an ex-cop (surprise!) who’s a bad driver and spends too much time talking when he should just shoot somebody. He witnesses criminal hijinks and becomes a marked man just as his cancer-stricken daughter shows up with a surprise that can be conveniently exploited by the bad guys. Meanwhile, there’s a demeaning subplot involving the only black character.
