Training Day

This movie is known because of one amazing actor: Denzel Washington. Most of the time, Denzel is playing a good guy, but in this monster of a film about just how crooked the justice system can be, Denzel proves to be the most skin crawling fucked up and REALISTIC villain ever conceived. The movie follows Jake, a cop who's trying to make it into a specialized DEA Unit, played by Ethan Hawke. He shadows the leader of the team, a very shady and mean Alonzo, played by the Oscar winning Denzel.

The movie, in all honesty, would be just any other typical crime thriller were it not for the amazing acting from both Hawke and Washington. The dialog is well written and the film is well shot. But, how much the audience learns to not only LOATHE Alonzo, but also pity him in some minuscule backhanded way is what makes this movie truly unique.

It's intense and breathtaking and one of those films where you look at the person next to you when the credits start to roll and say "....wow...."

Definitely worth watching many times over

What this shit is....

If you're on here, you probably know me. So you know that I live for 4 things. My family, food (candy), music, and MOVIES! If you want rants about the first 3, then talk to me. But if you want to hear about the movies I watch (which is a lot of movies) and you want to know what I think of them, read this site.

We'll start with tonight.

Easy Virtue

Jessica Biel, Colin Firth

7.5/10

Good movie. Was well written with clever lines and well placed puns. The humor was well done. The plot was a little bit dramatic, but I guess it fits the whole 20's thing. Jessica Biel did a good job with the character, who was sexy, witty, charming, but still somehow easy to relate to and humble. Colin Firth was a bad ass as always. The mother in law (Kristin Scott Thomas) was an awesome villain with clever lines and a well placed execution. While kind of campy and overly dramatic at points, the movie was entertaining and worth the watch.
