"Today's the training day officer Hoit." -Denzel Washington, Training Day
As an avid movie fan, I have obviously been following Denzels career, and I have to say that the man never seems to leave me unhappy with his performance. Now, he's done a lot of great movies; Virtousity, Fallen, Hurricaine, Remember the Titans, and though they are all well acted, they are also the same type of character, calm, quiet and cool. Olonso in Training day is different. He's a 'brotha', he's a scoundrel and he's out of control. Great new role for Washington. Ethan Hawke is a name I have stayed away from, I never really liked great expectations or gattaca, but I did like him immensly in TD. I will follow his career with great interest. TD is one of my top 5 all time favorite movies, on the scale of smart dialogue, funny irony and good acting. Which of the top five is it....I don't know.
