Saw it today. Good film, couple of plot holes, but still the full Denzel. | |||

At almost 70, this is probably Denzel’s last action movie. I thought it was very well done, especially when I found myself trying to make sense early on in the film of why he was in Italy. Of course, it was spelled out late in the film, and I thought it was a great nod to the 1980s TV show. I kept hoping the movies would introduce a version of Mickey Kostmayer. But, I guess I have to be thankful that they didn’t, and ruin that character for me. | |||

Guess I need to watch the 1st two. Not sure I have even heard of The Equalizer before this thread.
They always have one and Training Day is his. ———————————————— We see trauma in our sleep, we just need to find some peace. But we smile because we’re brave but there’s a war inside our brain.

You are the first person I have encountered who has said that they did not like Training Day. For me, that will always be in my top five Denzel Movies. ___________________________ All it takes...is all you got. ____________________________ For those who have fought for it, Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||

I know I am in the minority on this one just like Breaking Bad but I hated it. ———————————————— We see trauma in our sleep, we just need to find some peace.

I also hate Breaking Bad. I do like Training Day though. Training Day is better than any of the Equalizer movies, IMO. I love Scott Glenn's snail joke. | |||

I can understand this Black. I find Training Day to be a hard watch, but his performance was powerful. The scene where he leaves him to be executed and then they discover that he was the one who saved his niece was awesome. Most do not agree with me but I have always felt Street Kings was a better movie than John Wick. However, I will acknowledge that John Wick was more 'fun'. This business will get out of control.

I'm with Black, I didn't know about these movies. And honestly, I don't remember if I ever saw Man on Fire, but I have heard of it. This sure looks good, but I guess I should watch earlier ones first. | |||

Saw it in theater Saturday night. I will agree it was a good movie and allowed me to shut off my brain for a couple hours. It's what used to be a typical summer action movie and is generally the type of movie I enjoy as there is no convoluted plot to follow. I'm just there to watch the ass whooping and to relax in the a/c. I think I enjoyed it more than Oppenheimer or the Meg2, both of which I've seen recently. Oppenheimer is a better film in about every way if that's what you want, but the jumping timelines and different perspectives make it difficult to follow without some effort. A Perpetual Disappointment... | |||

Saw it today. To be honest, I thought the first two were much better, with the first one being the best. Not a good story and a lot of plot holes. Plus, the villains were pretty lame and cartoonish. | |||
