Phenomenal ! Denzel Washington spot on . Best Actor in this movie . Denzel was not for games .. Everthing was business! “ No Hard Feelings “

My favorite Denzel Washington movie ever and it made me a fan of him forever

I am a HUGE fan of Denzel Washington. He has brought so much magic, comfort and love to the silver screen and has become a wonderful role model of what it is to be a man and a powerful actor. Every role he has played, particularly as Malcom X, has shown us strength and an ever present honesty and decency even when he is playing a man with slightly tarnished morals. No matter what, you always love Denzel and know it's him!When TRAINING DAY begins, we are introduced to Rookie Officer Hoyt (Ethan Hawke) and his wife; a very boring couple. The pace of the movie is slow for the first 7 or 8 minutes as we meet them and find out our rookie is beginning his first day in the narcotics division of the LAPD; a really nice promotion. And he must go to meet his supervisor for this training day at a local coffee shop. And there he is. In all his wonderful glory - Mr. Denzel Washington sits at the booth, looking fine as wine in all black, reading a paper. You are in love again, as you were in every one of his moviesUNTIL....he opens his mouth to speak.And you suddenly realize THIS AIN'T DENZEL!!!From the very first line spoken by Officer Alonzo Harris, you will be uncomfortable, frightened, intrigued, amazed and stupified. His deliciously evil way of speaking, looking and acting will have you spellbound and scared to death. He is beyond mean. And you immediately wonder how poor rookie Hoyt will ever survive the day with this crazy man.I found TRAINING DAY to be inventive and incredibly disturbing. Yes, it has formulaic car crashes, violence and dialogue. And the stereotypical latin and black criminals would seriously get on your nerves IF it weren't for the powerful performances by Denzel and Ethan. This is a movie designed to showcase their acting ability and it does so in a powerful way. But ever present is the underlying message that says this is how things actually are in many large urban cities. As Alonzo says, "To catch a wolf, you have to become a wolf". And that drives this movie and keeps your heart pumping at a mad pace till the very last line. Halfway into the credits you'll suddenly realize it's over and stumble around wondering what kind of world are we living in. YES, it will affect you like that!In TRAINING DAY there were many lines of dialogue that stuck in my brain; some funny and some wild. But without doubt, the most powerful one came after rookie Hoyt discovers he has been played by Alonzo all day. That Alonzo has been planning Hoyt's destruction from the beginning and he accuses Alonzo of this fact with such naivety and surprise. Alonzo turns to him and says, "[Expletive], this ain't no checkers!! This is CHESS!!". Meaning, nothing in life is about fun, it is calculated and each move done to advance the desired end result.At the end of this movie, you will be wishing for - praying for - Officer Alonzo Harris to DIE!! You will want that evil to be destroyed and for the rookie Hoyt to somehow get out of the web of evil spun for him by Alonzo. You will throw popcorn at the screen.And you will know, without the tiniest doubt, that who ever that evil guy is... it darn sure ain't Denzel. THAT is the very discription of an actor who DESERVES A BEST ACTOR OSCAR!!!I VERY HIGHLY recommend this movie. PLEASE buy it. And prepare to step outside your comfort zone.Dr. Braxy :o)

Favorite movie .best line this is chess son.not checkers

Before i get into the actual quality of the film, I wanted to praise the condition in how this 4K copy came in for me. For some frustrating reason, Amazon and the sellers beneath them have been giving me either poor quality disc's where they stutter, freeze, and ruin the whole film experience, or they will short sell me the product when it's missing the digital copies, a Blu-ray copy, or both. But I wanted to thank the seller for giving me all of these features with an uninterrupted film. So, kudos for that.NOW, Training Day itself: phenomenal film, and a classic gangster, underworld film. Denzel Washington is perfect as his role of Alonzo and Ethan Hawke does his part well as the rookie cop Jake Hoyt. They are excellent foils in a story about how far one cop in the hellish world of crime. I love Antoine Fuqua's directing and the writing of this script is really good too, as I think that the film is smarter and deeper than it appears as Fuqua delves into hidden mythology in the film. It's great. Yes, some people will complain a certain part of the film that think it's an error or fault in the writing (I don't want to get into it as it will spoil the film), but I'm honestly willing to excuse it for certain reasons. Regardless, Training Day is a classic that shows you the corruption that takes place in Los Angeles.

This movie is goated. Not much else you need to know.
