film: Training Day

Training Day

Can we get a poll on this?

This is my favorite movie ever released. For some reason I liked it the first time I saw it, and have watched it over and over and it never gets old.

Some of the dialogue is a bit cheesy, but it's defintely a solid pickup for you DVD junkies.

4 of 4 stars

Also one of my favs

Really? I thought the movie was horrible, to tell you the truth.

From what I remember the characters didn't seem all to believable and the way they were developed had me not caring what happened to them. I know denzel got his nod for the role, but I always thought that to be a more political move. He has done better in other movies but did not get recognized then?

anyway, 2/4

its brilliant up until the godawful cop out ending.

stupid characters, stupid plot, stupid ending.

I thought it was total trash. "King Kong ain't got nothing on me" is probably one of the stupidest lines in the history of film.

I thought it was an excellent movie.....

Denzel did an outstanding job at that role......and def deserved the recognition....

4 out of 4 stars

how about the scene where alonzo and jake first get in alonzo's car and that awful snoop dog song plays as the hydrolics are displayed

parts of that movie were cheap as fuck but i liked it anyway. def not denzel's best work. i liked him in philadelphia myself.

this movie was like some beautiful combination of smoking pcp and solving crime

it is a stupid line but surely it's supposed to be stupid - the guy thinks he's the dog's bollocks and everybody respects him but he's just lost in the system like so many others...

LOL! That sounds like a line Beavis & Butthead would say.

 

[Shoelace]

That PCP scene was heavy!

Didnt you just say to suck my dik bitch? Hmm? Isnt that what you just said? You didnt? So I'm lying?!

Yeah, heavy movie. Denzel is the man.
