This was a pretty good crime film. Denzel Washington was absolute class.
Denzel was much better in the Hurricane, which is the role he should have won the Oscar for, not this one.
A wondeful film that makes you question what is the right way and what is the wrong way. Denzel Washington's character is a cop who has stepped over to the dark-side too many times and is lost.

Denzel Washington's character is a cop who has stepped over to the dark-side too many times and is lost. Mentoring his new partner he makes Ethan Hawke's character do thing foreign to his nature and thus wants to make him another corrupt cop. Edgey, Gritty and palpable an awesome suspense film.

Denzel Washington berhasil menyihir penonton dengan talenta gemilangnya di film ini. Secara keseluruhan, film ini memang tidak memiliki cerita yg bisa dinikmati secara maksimal oleh gw, tapi penyutradaraan Antoine Fuqua berhasil membawa gaya cop and buddy dengan gaya drama yg powerful plus kematangan karakter dari Denzel Washington layak diacungi jempol!!!
No Matter how many times that I've seen it......Denzel is truly one of the GREATEST Actors of my life time. Only in this Movie...can Washington, Hawke, Mendes & SNOOP, do sucha a WONDERFUL potrayal of REAL LIFE on the Streets!!! A +!!!!
The reason Denzel Washington won the Oscar for this: he carried every scene, even the ones he wasn't in.
Love this film - 'have u everhad ur shit pushed in?" line from my favourite scene from any movie :)
One of Denzel's best performances. Parts of this movie actually scared me. (Especially the bathtub scene).
Ethan Hawke is an average actor but the movie brought good points. "It doesn't matter what you know it is what you can prove"
Critic Reviews
Giving Alonso a melodramatic secret -- a reason for this particular behavior on this particular day -- trivializes the whole exercise.full review
While Training Day is a violent film, its brutality takes place in a believable moral universe and isn't just tossed in to give us a thrill.full review
Here's a cop drama with some brutal smarts, rather than dumb brutality and smart-alecky one-liners.full review
For its kinetic energy and acting zeal, I enjoyed the movie. I like it when actors go for broke.full review
With its unflinching style, Training Day can be hard to sit through at times. But it's worth the discomfort for the adrenaline rush of the plot and Washington's compelling performance.full review
Washington, who just keeps getting better, is a sparking, snapping live wire in the role of Detective Sgt. Alonzo Harris.full review
