Informazioni su questo film

Jake Hoyt (Ethan Hawke - Hamlet, La Neve Cade sui Cedri ) è un giovane poliziotto intenzionato a porre qualche ostacolo al crimine dilagante a Los Angeles e ha solo 24 ore per dimostrare di esserne in grado. Il suo "trainer" è Alonzo Harris, interpretato da Denzel Washington (Il Sapore della Vittoria, Hurricane) nell'inedito ruolo dell'agente della narcotici dai metodi quantomeno discutibili, vittima di una precaria instabilità tra legalità e corruzione. Nel corso di queste 24 ore Jack si troverà coinvolto nella logica ambigua di Alonzo e i due saranno costretti a mettere in gioco la carriera e le loro stesse vite per seguire due concezioni opposte di giustizia. TRAINING DAY, diretto da Antoine Fuqua (Bait - l'Esca, Costretti ad Uccidere), è un film d'azione duro e drammatico che offre al pubblico un quadro realistico della guerra che si combatte sul fronte urbano e di quanto possa esserne alto il costo.

Valutazioni e recensioni

Watched this on my birthday April 19, 2022 and meant to comment on this sooner, but every year on my birthday on April 19 my twin brother always buys a movie for us to watch together on our birthday and all I have to say is you can never get disappointed or go wrong with a Denzel Washington film. This is probably 3 years in a row where we've watched a Denzel Washington Film and by far one of the greatest actors of all time as well. Such an underrated film like many say that covers such a well written story with such an iconic cast of characters, track and a cast that if not known is now known with many special appearances and examples like Snoop Dogg, Terry Crews, Dr Dre, Eva Mendes and many more and of course Ethan Hawke where if he wasn't already known to many, became known to many. By far one of the best movies I have ever watched on my birthday, just like every year where my twin brother never fails to amaze me with his movie picks. This is by far definitely a movie where if you haven't watched it yet - should watch and definitely a must watch. Not going to spoil it for anyone, or give any hints to what happens in the movie but it is much similar to what many people have said so far with many more reviews yet to come in the future, however it is very much underrated even if it has mixed reviews. A very intense movie filled with scenes where you can't help but be interested in where its almost as if that you yourself are apart of the movie, where you also can't help yourself but be in the moment and also be in a rollercoaster of emotions of what happens next or is yet to come alongside the fact of getting up from wherever you're watching it on to be in the moment. There's honestly so much to say about this film and of course the cast especially with Denzel but I'm just going to keep this short and simple and let you be the judge of it. - April 19, 2022. 🥳🎉🎂 🎈🎁 💙🌍♾️

Such an iconic, and legend of a film. An extremely underrated film that covers such an iconic storyline, with a legendary cast like Denzel Washington, characters, and track too it. Watched it on my birthday today on the 19th of April, and was extremely worth it. I don't want to spoil too much, but its worth every penny, and very intense, action packed, and interesting.
