Training Day [Blu-ray]

I watch this film to heal from contemporary movies, along with Casablanca and Blade Runner. Too much entertainment now leans toward bland, glib, and low-aiming drama. Denzel is singular as the self-deluding corrupt cop, Hawke is relatable as the younger cop trying to advance but anchored by conscience, and the locations all over L.A. give it a documentary feel at times. Great, ambitious early work from director Antoine Fuqua.

Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke at their very best. This movie has been out since 2001 I believe so you should have watched it by now! If you haven't seen it watch it. Lots of violence and foul language just to give folks a heads up.

Good classic movie

One of the best villains ever played

Excellent movie all the way through.

Overall, a well done movie, with a truly out of character role played by Denzel Washington. While watching the film, I kept thinking that Samuel Jackson should have gotten this role. But Denzel adds a level of professionalism and class to this role of an out of control LA Police vice detective that Jackson likely could likely not have pulled off. You know, from Jackson's previous roles in Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown, that Jackson plays a "bad guy" very well, and without a doubt. Washington, on the other hand, is far more stealthy regarding character judgement. The movie Flight is a good example of this. He starts out as this wonderful "hero pilot", and ends up as a model prisoner, all because of his own bad behavior,. This bad behavior sneaks up on the viewer, and is certainly not "in your face" the way Jackson has played his roles. As Training Day gets going, one does not know what to make of Washington's character, and neither does his newly hired police partner. One wonders if the experienced detective (with 15,000 convictions) is going to be a positive role model for the newbie police officer, or is he actually a corrupt demon, which he clearly becomes by the end of the film. A very good film, that I don't particularly want to see again. It can be frightening to the viewer to see the subtle ambiguities that separate right from wrong. Washington again demonstrates his superior skills in this regard on the big screen. His acting abilities right now reminds me of a young Robert DeNiro. This film reminds me of Taxi Driver. In both films, the main character travels between "good" and "evil" with stealth and subtlety, and there are not many actors who can pull this off.

Great movie to watch

Great 4k movie but Amazon needs to specify if it comes with the slip cove

Pues llegó muy bien, sin daños en el slipcover, el cual es de buena calidad y con un case de color azul. Me sorprendió que llegara así, pero es algo del productor de la edición.La imagen es muy buena y es una gran mejorar desde el blu-ray convencional. Los grandes cambios están enfocados en la nitidez, brillo, profundidad de los negros y calidad de la imagen, con un grano fílmico que se resuelve muy bien en pantalla, todo esto aderezado con un buen efecto HDR10.El audio en inglés Dolby Atmos es intenso y de buena calidad. También trae español latino Dolby Digital.El código digital es válido solo para USA.

Story Super, Bild deutlich besser.Schäfer und Heller, im Heimkino Super.Ton identisch. Nur Englisch in Atmos.Aufgrund der guten Story aber 5/5
