The movie is based on the Rampart scandal, and Alonzo is based on former LAPD officer Rafael Perez, aka Ray Lopez, who did worse stuff than Alonzo and barely faced any consequences for it. I think in total, he has served 3 years in prison.
@@noahlopez1274I think I remember they somewhat used his military service as well to help him stay out of the worse punishment as well, since he was honorably discharged
It's such great writing too. The lesson of the story is that you need to be in control of your emotions, and Alonzo just can't grasp it and thinks it's utter nonsense.
Yeah and it’s pretty accurate as to how they pretend to be your friend to get you drop your guard and get close to you. Then before you know it they’re attacking.
But the end part where they're about to use a shotgun point blank into their own tub is dumb af Hollywood bs. It would destroy the tub & possibly the plumbing so they'd realistically use something else for the job where wifey about to take a shower. But Hwood writers are stupid & lazy af & don't care about realism & such
As an old goat(og) gang member whose clique is always in these movies(opening scene, that video arcade) but never credited(ws18st/7BGS), Id like to put you on some game; it's very close to real. The restaurant scene, that ThePacificDiningCar(now closed), where judges, lawyers, and cops all get badass steaks and hella hard drinks. It's also directly across from the 'new' rampart station. The days of the ol' street bulls(cops) are over, because of video cameras. But if you knock a couple zeros off the ammts, there's some dark reality in this. It's filmed all thru the Westside until u get to the PJ's. Anyway, you on fire homie, keep up the reviews! Vatos Locos Forever!
Legit one of the best movies ever made. I rewatch it every now and again but NOTHING compares to the first time you watch Training Day. Always a blessing to see an upload from you, hermano! Stay up, my guy! 💯🙏🏻
Gracias and hope you enjoy homie, also idk if I cut it from the video or kept it but yeah, this is like my 20th time watching this film and it always stays fresh!!!
Hahah, loved the Eazy-E "Real Muthaphuckkin G's" Left Blow reference. That song with BG Knocc Out and Dresta is that REAL shit! Just like your reviews, Old Barrio! Another good one, carnal!
Best cop movie for me has gotta be LA Confidential. Best hood movie is probably Boyz for me. But this is the best of this combination imo and the best modern cop movie imo. I do like Copland and American Gangster but man Training Day was just so huge when it came out
The story and script for this movie are good, nothing too special but good. But man the performances from Ethan Hawke and Denzel Washington are legendary. Guys have that Magic/Kareem chemistry and it's a big credit to Ethan Hawke to not get swallowed up by Denzel, not too many actors can be a Denzel co-star and not get drowned out (I think Russel Crowe and Viola Daivs are others who held their own with Denzel). Great video bro!
If you’re looking for another movie about a crooked cop and a rookie I recommend To Live And Die In L.A. it’s not a hood movie but it definitely feels like “Grand Theft Auto: The Movie.” Willem Dafoe is also a sick ass foo in this movie, a masterpiece of a performance
Actually just remembered another one-- Route 666 with Lou Diamond Phillips. It's low budget as hell, parts of it are stupid to the moon and back, but it's one of those films where the cast is everybody's childhood, the ideas are badass, and the tone/imagery is one of those throwbacks we'll likely never see again. Without spoiling too much, it's a jokey buddy cop action flick meets a supernatural horror flick, and the "monster" is this unjustly murdered old time chain gang that come back as ghost-zombie things, each with their own road crew implement turned weapon, who's spirits have literally FUSED with the cursed road, and they're all made up to LOOK like they're part of the road they were buried under. That's the main sell, but it also does (or at least attempts) some other stuff around the edges that's kind of interesting and you kind of wish they'd have really explored it more. Again, kinda dumb, has a lot of bad editing and some of the writing is stupid-- but a lot of the flick is fun and laid-back and pretty badass-- some of the comedy even manages to be intentional!
Man, I remember being at this party here in Florida, and I wasn't liking the vibe after seeing people smoking rock and how unpredictable they get while on it. I was about to leave when one of the guys grabbed my arm and said, 'What, you're leaving? You don't like my party?' He was one of the guys smoking rock, and I had left my gun in the car. I was like, 'Yea, it's that. I live an hour away.' He asked where I was staying, and I said the furthest town away. He looked at me for what seemed like an eternity and then said, 'Oh, okay, well, drive safe.' I got in my car, and as I was pulling out of the driveway, I had one hand on the steering wheel and the other on my piece, just in case. The whole interaction lasted like 5 minutes, but if anyone has been in situations like those, time just seems to slow down, and a million thoughts go through your head.
I thought this WAS the best cop movie when it came and it was, BUT then "End of Watch" came out and in my personal opinion I think End of Watch was better. Training Day is still a very good movie though.
Yeah. The plain clothes unit in Baltimore is the same way. There’s tons of real life examples of this type of activity going on within certain police units.
A great review as always, loved the little jokes you do like the “ boom “ but please do Dirty (2005) with Clifton Gonzalez and Cuba Gooding Jr, also Street kings would be a good one too!
This a classic Not to mention that Alonzo broke almost every law possible just for him stop at a red light at the end and get the Reynosa Tamaulipas treatment Also one prayer for Cripple Snoop 🙏🔥🔥🔥♿
Hes a famous Indigenous New Zealand actor. But he has the perfect skin tone to play Mexicans so he ends up doing that in American films. Not that many Maori living in the US. He could pass for Samoan though.
I can't remember what kids movie I wanted to see that came out around the same time when Training Day did but my dad took my brother, cousin and myself to see this instead. I guess the plans changed because my uncle called him up and told him to meet him at the theater for this movie. I was 9... Way to young to see this but god damn I loved every second of it 😂
I remember watching this movie my senior year with my football team mates in the theather and man we all went crazy in there watching this. It's the best of all 3.
Its probably not realistic today, but it seems based on the C.R.A.S.H units of the L.A. police department. Cant remember if the banditos where apart of that but i think there was more than one "gang" in the police.
Damn bro when you brought up Raymond Cruz I immediately thought of From Dusk Till Dawn 2 but you should do all 3 of them bro! Love your videos as always ❤️ now gimme some chon chon!
In 2024 this movie looks like a future artefact that will be used to illustrate the final stage of the American Empire before its collapse in the 2040s.
Hey @The Old Barrio there's a game called Total Overdose which is not technically a movie but it's an video game. An old time classic from the creators of Max Payne and Tony Hawk Underground but it's mainly about a criminal working with his twin brother in the DEA and you two are going up against the cartel. Definitely look it up brother
Shiii thanks I did and it looks pretty cool some one else mentioned a game similar to the 2004 punisher video game flashbacks and I forgot the name of that but those ones really make me wish I had a PS2 to replay those games
The craziest thing i remember about this film is being a young stoner and my buddys older brother was like did you realize that training day the entire film took place over one single day? And i shit my teenage pants lol 😆 ahhhhhh c'mon foooo
Do they ever address the plot hole that is them supposedly raiding a house shooting Rodger cutting and digging a hole finding the money in the kitchen floor all before backup got there?
5:11 if you look deeper into the way hee holding his guns, in one hand he’s holding his gun upright like a police officer would. In the other hand he’s old oh it to the side like a dealer/ street dude would. I think it’s symbolic for the movie to show what kind of officer Lonzo is. To show that he’s an officer of the law but also he’s a crooked, street smart corrupt cop.
Bro your shit be hilarious bro and the way u clown on these topics and i relate to the jokes u crack are so close to the way i cap on my boys i love it carnal keep up ur work💯

@@noahlopez1274I think I remember they somewhat used his military service as well to help him stay out of the worse punishment as well, since he was honorably discharged
@noahlopez1274 is he still working as a bodyguard for celebs? Last I knew of him is that he was working security for celebrities.
I was just thinking this
Jake knew where to draw the line and ultimately managed to do what Alonzo didn't: keep his soul.
Scott Glenn sure is an underrated actor… That scene with him and Jake discussing the ‘smiles and cry’ was top notch acting !
It's such great writing too. The lesson of the story is that you need to be in control of your emotions, and Alonzo just can't grasp it and thinks it's utter nonsense.
As somebody that grew up in LA. The cholos scene was one of the most terrifying scene I ever scene in a movie. More than any horror movie.
Exactly and soo tense!!!
Yeah and it’s pretty accurate as to how they pretend to be your friend to get you drop your guard and get close to you. Then before you know it they’re attacking.
No cap, my cousins on my dads side of mi familia is exactly like this. Some of them are chill and talk a lot of smack, but others just don’t play

It's great and so tense that it's hard to watch sometimes. Denzel really feels evil and manipulative.
Yeah if you grew up in streets and stuff that movie score just gives me PTSD
Do Man On Fire sometime-- technically not a "police" or "hood" movie, but most definitely adjacent, and a great flick in it's own right.
it takes place in Mexico so i think it counts as a barrio film

The thumbnail is sickkk....😂

That had me dying bro! 😂😂 may Denzel took some inspiration from the Fuhrer
Never would have thought Ethan Hawke would be in one of the best cop movies in Training Day, as well as one of the best Horror movies in Sinister.
5:11 that sound always gets me
I believe that it's all three of the best rolled up into one! This movie is a masterpiece! And Denzel is unbelievable.

Well with regards to how accurate it is, the CRASH team this is based on got into some wild shit. So it probably isn't too far off from real life.
