That's true. I've never seen Ethan Hawke give a bad performance. If you think he's good here, you should have seen him in theatre here in London - way back. He's a powerhouse 😳🇬🇧
Yes, I’m 50 years old and I can remember before this movie came out Denzel had always played “good guy” roles and you could feel the shock and horror in the theater at the time the movie was released that started to creep in as viewers slowly began to realize Denzel was the bad guy! He got an Oscar for this, not just because he played a bad guy but he did it so convincingly!
This movie is almost a Rorshach test for viewers: at what point do you realize Denzel is the bad guy? Did you have to see him actually commit murder before you finally turned on him, or was it during one of his earlier felonies?

The guy who played Bone (“Jake, go ahead and bounce homie, we got your back”) is one of the guys that Suge Knight is in prison for running over with his truck.
The way Denzel strung you along Nia was exciting to watch, lol. You were in disbelief, denial, all of the emotions. Haha, it’s always interesting to watch others view this one for the first time. It doesn’t really click until the end for most. Most just think all of Alonzo’s actions are justified. Such a phenomenal film from all, however Denzel did this thing. Mission passed.

@ Thank you for summarizing it so perfectly. Thats exactly why I enjoy watching reactions to this film. You can tell who is pure of heart and maybe those who aren’t so trusting and even desensitized.
I don't know why, but my Dad developed the hell out of Denzel's mannerisms towards cordially approaching people from this movie 😆 #RealTalk he was so addicted to this movie when it came out
The irony in what Alonzo says at the beginning about Ethan's wife and the ring is that later if you watched the deleted scenes, Alonzo asked the H gang to burn his body in front of his house and wife....
Great reaction Mia like always, Denzel was a beast in this film, and deserved his Oscar, but Ethan Hawke was also amazing. Although the movie wasn’t based on a true story Denzel’s character was loosely based on an actual corrupt LAPD cop named Rafael Perez. Perez was involved in a huge corruption scandal back in the day and was one of the cops implicated in Notorious B.I.G.s murd€r, almost twenty years ago. Keep up the good work.
Director Antoine Fuqua works really well with Denzel. After Training Day, they would work together again on The Magnificent 7 remake (also with Hawke) and the Equalizer series. While he started as a knock-off John Woo (his first movie Replacement Killers is still pretty good though) Training Day really put Fuqua on the radar for a lot of people. It's slick, stylish, and he directs the heck out of a stellar cast. He has a few stumbles (see what you think of King Arthur 2004) but I think he's a very solid director usually.
Denzel Washington movies had my Mom and her social circle in an absolute CHOKEHOLD. She definitely didnt like this movie. Her words: "I don't like seeing Denzel acting evil like that."
This movie is almost a Rorshach test for viewers: at what point do you realize Denzel is the bad guy? Did you have to see him actually commit murder before you finally turned on him, or was it during one of his earlier felonies?
Exactly! This film makes you ask yourself what exactly are the limits of this job and what do you truly consider protecting & serving? What is the difference between a punishment & a power trip for a cop & does the difference even matter to you as long as you aren’t on the recieving end? When is a cop allowed to be ruthlessly violent & who are they allowed to be ruthless to? For me personally harshing the trio in the Beetle at the beginning was enough for me to call out Alonzo but for so many people the fact that they were involved in drugs at all makes them feel Alonzo was justified in his actions. Hell, some people come away thinking that Alonzo didn’t go far enough. And yet that’s also right before Alonzo forced Hoyt to use what they just confiscated anyway with a slightly more intimidating form of peer pressure & coercion that might have led those people to the drugs. So is Alonzo better than a drug dealer because he wears a badge & dealing isn’t his full time job, or is he just as bad as them despite his “this is the way Narcotics is” justifications? Creating that kind of stark self reflection is the brilliance of this film.
I wonder how many ask the question that what does the badge even mean? This movie adds another layer to Nicholson's words in "the departed": cop or criminal, when you are faced with a loaded gun, what's the difference?
Denzel was so good in this that I was already sus in that first scene in the coffee shop. As soon as they made the first stop with the college kids I was certain he was worse than any other criminal we were going to see in the movie.
I think denzel's character is very misunderstood in this film because he doesn't seem to be bad at his job, he is just very very desperate for money for its life and death
You’re not a dummy. @46:30 you describe the real feeling on the movie. Most people think it’s just about Alonzo being corrupt, there’s some truth but really it’s an abusive relationship. From the 1st time they meet, Alonzo establishes his dominance over Jake, he uses his position in their power dynamic to gaslight and lie and manipulate him. Every time Jake starts to come to his senses, Alonzo reassures him what’s going on is ok and it’s “part of the process”. As I’ve gotten older and watched this movie more I’m seeing the true meaning of it, especially having friends who’ve been in these types of relationships. It’s damn near a snapshot of America in 2024
@@NiaMakiReacts I think the scene that best encapsulates it is the conversation they have in the car after they take out Rodger. Jake is at his wits end and Alonzo uses every tool in the shed to manipulate him. I once read something about viewing the movie differently if the Jake character was female. Or if the Jake character was the son/relative of the Alonzo character, then you can really see the abusive nature of
As a first time watcher, This was whirlwind of confusion and Events that didn't even seem believable. I was tryin so hard not to feel stupid from My confusion.
There is a theory that Ethan Hawkes Character was Internal Affairs sent to Investigate Denzel Washington's Character and all who he is affiliated with and when he had a sit down the wise Men they told him who Ethan's Character was that's why Denzel's Character set him up for the tub...
This film is somewhat realistic, a bit of Hollywood scripting but undercover detectives do have to similar things to this to catch drug lords, criminals etc.
when I first watched this the first 3-4 times and saw him say the line " you have the left and right pockets, pay the bill." I was like... what a wise message to say to step up in your position. Later I just realized he was being a cheap ass and telling the rook to literally pay
Enjoyed your reaction to this, but I also can't help but wonder what kind of sheltered existence you must have had growing up?....Or maybe you just didn't wanna believe Denzel was living so foul lol. But yeah, the level of corruption and manipulation was next level as far as Alonzo's character, but it's a fairly accurate reflection of police corruption in real life. In fact, his character is loosely based on a real cop who served in a precinct in the Rampart district in Los Angeles, and that precinct was notoriously corrupt. I'm curious to know if you've watched this again since you made this video?
An amazing film with an incredible performance by Denzel. It was interesting seeing Nia try and make sense of the film, when I like to simply sum it up. It was a criminal with a badge. To me, it's that simple.
As a former cop if you place a gun to my head ( any cop,you could be the Chief of police,a dective,etc,etc,. ) we're fighting all day every day !!! LOL.
Two other movies that, just like this one, kinda messes with what you know, or what you think you know, are Sicario (2015) and Shot Caller (2017). Both had me riveted from beginning to end.
The scene with the Mexicans will always disturb me, not because they were going to kill him but what they were talking about at the table and I don't think many people know what they are talking about either which is even more disturbing...
The good old golden days of cinema. Today, we don't see such perfect raw drama anymore. Denzel and Hawke drew me right into the screen. When I saw it as a teenager. Back then, films were made with the heart and not for monetary gain.
Movies these days aren't nearly as compelling and well written as this movie, but there are some diamonds here and there. "The Passenger" is one that came out last year(2023) that has a very similar premise of something dark happening over the course of a day. It's definitely worth checking out sometime. It stars Kyle Gallner, who for years has been sort of floating around Hollywood doing small films like that one. He's recently started making a name for himself showing up in stuff like "Dinner in America" and "Strange Darling". Both fantastic movies as well.
One of the things that makes no sense in this move is when the duo roll up on Snoop on the street, and asks him for crack, Snoop says smells like bacon. They go after him and all of a sudden Snoop knows Lonzo and Lonzo knows all about his record of past crimes. Theres no way he didnt recognize him in the car.
I was thinking that too lol but later on I was thought snoop said that maybe after looking at Alonzo and was basically like man I’m not playing these games with u
A lot of great villain actors are nice people, but most nice actors can't do villain. Denzel can't do villain. I don't buy it. He's doing a fine technical job, but I can see the actor past the acting. I don't believe he'd be doing these things. The audience is aware the whole time that this is just a movie. Ethan Hawke too for that matter. Good job on the technical acting, but I don't buy him as a cop. At all. The actor is visible.
I swear I don't understand how you ladies enjoy watching movies 😂 you spend the entire thing asking what happened! Luckily you're pleasant to be around and look nicer than men
Everyone raves about Denzels performance in this movie, and deservedly so,...but Ethan Hawke was excellent as well.
That's true. I've never seen Ethan Hawke give a bad performance. If you think he's good here, you should have seen him in theatre here in London - way back.
He's a powerhouse 😳🇬🇧
denzel won oscar for this role, ethan was nominated also and rigtly so
It’s the anti Denzel role. He is not a good guy, but he is a GREAT BAD GUY. Jack Nicholson, great bad guy ….. Denzel now is one too off this role
every great team compliments each other
@@NigelShepherd-z7k “That’s the second time you pointed a gun at me, there will NOT be a third!”
The gang members weren't planning on killing Alonzo, they were just holding him at gunpoint so that Jake could get away safely.

Denzel Washington's character was based on the real life LAPD office Rafael Pérez. Crazy
At 43:47 the director Antoine fuqua said that Denzel improvised that part.
On another interview the director said Denzel improvised 70 percent of his lines in Training Day!
Not you worrying about the snail story.. 12:35 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
She got the story though. First reactor I've seen who did
"Is that Macy Gray"? Good eye!! No one ever pics up on that. Cool reaction!
