Denzel Washington delivers an Academy Award-winning performance opposite Ethan Hawke in this gritty drama set in the morally ambiguous world of undercover police work. Every day a war rages between drug dealers and cops on the streets of America's inner cities. With every war come casualties, none greater than 13-year veteran Los Angeles narcotics officer Alonzo Harris (Washington), whose questionable methods blur the line between legal and corrupt. Today Alonzo gets a new partner, idealistic rookie Jake Hoyt (Hawke), and Jake has one day--and one day only--to prove his mettle to his fiercely charismatic superior. Over 24 hours, Jake will be dragged into the ethical mire of Alonzo's logic as both men risk their careers and their lives to serve conflicting notions of justice.

Just another movie making all cops look bad like the crew of the vice squad Denzel seems to be in charge of. He did a good job showing the first day of the new guy but once he uses his peer pressure to get his trainee (Ethan Hawke) to smoke crack you could almost count on the ending the way it did. Denzel did not give the quality performance of his previous movies nor did he give it the depth that he has done in the past! Sorry Denzel not your best work.

Denzel is dynamite and Ethan is the fall guy. Tons of action, both actors were superb. Even a little Scott Glenn... You can watch this one over and over again. I had three Monte Carlos, but never as cool as the one in the movie- awesome!

This movie had every angle that you want action pack, suspenseful, plot twist, and of course the bad guy gets it in the end. The only thing I didn't like is out of all the great movies Denzel has played in he never got an Oscar until this movie. All the actors were excellent as well.
