Training Day

I will kill your wife. I will kill your son. I will kill your infant daughter.

Do you think it’s called training day because he was training that day? I was hoping for a movie about trains or a movie with a bunch of trains in it. This did have some trains but not that much. If you want a movie about trains don’t watch this. It’s an ok movie with some trains

Really subversive take on the generic buddy-cop movie format. Alonzo is a very morally ambiguous character. I don’t know if the writers intended for this to happen, but it really increases the quality of the movie; Solid, solid action. Really holds up 20+ years later.

Riveting crime thriller with great plot & script. Denzel is incredible, electric from the very first scene. Loved how this spiraled deeper & deeper into a nightmare scenario, requiring more & more character initiative. Intense third act with foreshadowing neatly tied together.

This all in one day too damn. Day 2 gonna be crazy

“This shit’s chess, it ain’t checkers.”

Denzel and Ethan Hawke both give amazing performances. How the story unfolds and the comes back around is very entertaining.
