The scene where Alonzo is on the phone and says ‘make sure the bathtub is clean’ shows he was calling Smiley ahead of time and was fully prepared to murder Jake all because Jake refused to play along with Alonzo’s schemes. Smiley was paid the cash by Alonzo that Jake refused to take from the bust but Jake saving Smiley’s cousin was the only thing that saved him his one good deed saved his life. That is why Smiley said ‘its just business’ and Jake doing a good deed for his cousin was more valuable than the pay from Alonzo’s hit.

Yep jake takes the money and he changes his mind. It was his last chance. Also I read a article & watched a movie review where Alonzo was a improviser through out the whole movie. He uses the menu as a fake warrant. He goes to Roger and ask him if he gonna be home. If not he might have robbed someone else. Getting sand man's money was improvised cause he had to find out who he was from the wheelchair dude. So when alonzo starts to realize jake might be straight & narrow when he asks her who her people are he knows and thinks if I have to kill Jake I can just use them. He didn't count on jake having the wallet. Once I read & watched that review it all made sense cause I always hated the wallet just being a coincidence. It wasn't, Alonzo just put in the back in his mind if I have to kill him I can just use them.
This movie takes many watches. At least two. He had this whole thing planned waaaaay ahead of time. Every piece was planned before he even met Jake with failsafes and backups--but he cannot control fate. Jake's saving of the cousin is the only thing that saved his life.
Fun fact: Denzels character was originally suppose to escape the city alive but he insisted that the character had to die as a consequence of his actions.
@@Average_CoD_Clips honestly, I’m of two minds on this. It’s more satisfying to see him go down but movies where the villain manages to survive and go about their business can be impactful when done correctly. Sometimes terrible people get away with doing terrible things.
@S4mmy Yea, the characters in Sicario aren't corrupt and in it for themselves like Alonzo and they think they're doing the right thing. Well, most of them. Alejandro is in it just for revenge. But their actions are meaningless in the end. Killing the head of the biggest drug trafficking organization won't stop the killing or the import of drugs to the US.
@S4mmy Lol you think there's good guys in Sicario, that's cute. You totally missed that point, there are no good guys. Like the cartel leader said at the end "The people who sent you here, you think they're any different? Who do you think we learned it from?" The American government and military are the most corrupt organizations in the world.
Denzel is literally one of the greatest actors of all time. The range of his performances, and his authenticity are mind-blowing. And yeah, dramatized situations for film, but this kind of stuff happens. All the time.
Really??? I knew who it was based on her voice in 2 seconds flat, and I've maybe heard a couple of her songs at most. I'm also old enough to remember when she blew up 20 years ago, though. EDIT: Now that I think about it, I totally understand why younger people wouldn't have a clue tbh. No way I'd have known if she wasn't getting radio play back then.
I love how it was the protective instincts of the rookie trying to help people that ended up saving his life, and the predatory instincts of Alonzo that cost him his.
@@W4rr4X Malcolm X, Glory, The Hurricane, Flight, Man On Fire, Inside Man, Philadelphia, Crimson Tide, The Pelican Brief…. He was even in another movie with Russel Crowe long ago, Virtuosity, which is a fun, cheesy flick if you’re into computers, hacking, and AI…kind of slightly relevant with what’s going on these days with AI.
In the anthony hamilton song “why” he says “why did denzel have to he crooked before he took it?” referring to the fact that denzel hadnt won an academy award for best actor until he played the bad guy in training day.
Cliff Curtis was first rate as Smiley. I've read so many comments mentioning how he's able to readily inhabit so many different ethnicities in his roles, always adding at the end, that Curtis is actually Maori.
Again...2001. Movies before 9/11 were either flops and goofy as hell or they were just HAMMERS that leave you stunned and thinking. This was one of those films.
There was one ending that was filmed had the Wise Men show up at Jake's house to say Alonzo didn't get to his drop off and wanted to know where the money was. Jake said "in evidence" or something like that and just walked into his house. Pretty much leaving the Wise Men to have this "Aw, shit" look on their faces.
*Out of Time (I literally watched Out of Sight for the first time in years a few weeks ago) BOTH good movies though 😀. Out of Sight has George Clooney, J-Lo, Don Cheadle, Michael Keaton... Worth a watch if you haven't seen it.
I've seen this movie no less than 2500 times since it's come out. I always stop and watch it when it's on tv and put it on when I'm cleaning or retouching images. That being said, watching your reaction I went through it with you. Watching intense movies is absolutely no big deal for me, however, watching you have anxiety attacks brought me there with you. Great job!
He only gets caught slipping when he is following traffic laws. He went from jaywalk/running red lights to waiting for a light to turn green at night. 😂😂😂
The movie is a reference to the Rampart Scandal. There was a local LAPD unit called CRASH. CRASH was formed in the 1980s during the Cocaine epidemic in Los Angeles and excessive gang warfare. Some CRASH units were gang associates and/or gang members. The crooked CRASH unit would use the LAPD resources to put terror in the Los Angeles streets such as kidnapping, drug trafficking, unprovoked fights/shootings among rival gang members and their fellow CRASH officers who threatened to report their dirty campaigns. Alonzo Harris is a reference to Rafael Perez, who was a CRASH Officer and a former U.S Marine. The license plate on Alonzo's Monte Carlo lowrider reads ORP 967. It was supposed to be ORP 1967. 1967 is the year Rafael Perez was born.
To answer your question…Jake got lucky. Alonzo was tying up his loose end sending him there. Jake was always supposed to end up dead in the plan and he sealed his fate when he wouldn’t take Rogers money.
I'm with you, Arianna. This movie is intense. I owned the movie and donated it to my local library. The entire movie is about an intensely corrupt cop without a good cop to balance it out (no good cop was hunting down the bad cop). I watch movies to be entertained, not to be anxious for 1.5-2.0 hours. It was too much for me.
I don’t think Alonzo planned to kill Jake from the beginning, but everything he did plan up until the 2nd trip to Rogers house was done just in case Jake wouldn’t go willingly with his plan. So when Jake wouldn’t go along even with the threat of being tested and sabotaging his career, that’s when Alonzo went with getting rid of Jake altogether.
I’m actually glad Arianna was uncomfortable watching Training Day. Honestly, you’re supposed to be. It’s raw and unforgiving but with a purpose. Training Day is an excellent movie, but it is certainly one that pushes moral boundaries for reasons it explains within its own narrative as the events unfold. Fun fact: Denzel’s character is loosely based upon an actual former LAPD Narcotics Officer who fully embraced corruption and completely manipulated the system for his own ends, even going so far as to stage drug busts solely to rob and kill, as seen in the film halfway through. Fun fact #2: The Director, Antoine Fuqua, wanted as much authenticity as possible, so he coordinated filming in actual gang neighborhoods by interviewing and involving then-current gang members.
I watch Arianna's reactions because how analytical she usually is, but this is the first time I've seen her incapable of overcoming emotions. That's a testimonial to how good the acting is in this film!
This was suuuuuuch a good movie. I was blown away back when I saw it in 2002 because everyone was saying that it was just "a well-acted generic cop thriller". It's much more than that. This movie is absorbing from beginning to end.
Sadly, the "he had to be crooked before he took it" is a mood expressed by alot of people. My mom, who is a denzel fan, still hasnt seen this movie just cuz she was so mad he had to play a role like this to win. In her defense, there were a lot of roles over the years he should a won for. Malcolm X comes to mind.
It's kind of true Malcom X was far better than Training day. But this role was necessary for us to know that Denzel has range to play the bad guy. Weirdly I was rooting for him to survive this 😀
This movie is very strong, and both of their performances were amazing, Denzel Washington won an Oscar for this movie. Greetings From Chile Darling🫶🏻🫶🏻❤️
The first time I watched this movie, I was so horrified, I did not want to watch it again. I did, though, a long time later. Like 8+ years at least. This movie is harsh and dark as all hell.
26:16 - I’ve never seen/heard Arianna speechless. I’ve been watching her for a couple yrs and this is a first. This is 1 of Denzel’s many, outstanding roles. MAN ON FIRE is his best movie. Ari, SICARIO: DAY OF THE SOLDADO is better than the first one. Especially, the last 5 minutes. Ari and Maple r the best of the best.
The Hillside gang was supposed to kill him. He was just lucky that he saved the cousin earlier. Alonzo didn't plan anything but having him killed because he knew he could trust him, he has an incorruptible heart.
Wow Arianna with a deep cut! WHY!!! 17:45 love this scene just captures the tension of being a "police officer". Had no idea David Ayer wrote Harsh Times, End of Watch and directed Street Kings
This movie holds up very well over 20 plus years later great performances by Denzel and Ethan Hawke plus you have the very beautiful Eva mendes in this movie
Ariana is lucky she ducked in the apartment shootout scene. She would have lost a shoulder! Lol. Love your reactions Kinda felt bad at how stressed she was.
Am I the only one that heard Arianna say she just watched True Detective? Please post a reaction to season 1.... One of the best single seasons ever made.
Alonzos character was inspired by a real CRASH unit cop by the name Rafael Perez, interesting story whos tentacles reached as far as Death Row Records.
I don’t know if you knew this or not but this movie is pretty much based on a true story about an LAPD Narcotics Unit in the late 90’s to around 2002. It was all over the news when they all got busted by internal affairs and the corruption went all the way to the top.

He saved the movie then.
Imagine how unsatisfying it
would be to the audience if he didn’t finally get what was coming to him.
@@Average_CoD_Clips honestly, I’m of two minds on this. It’s more satisfying to see him go down but movies where the villain manages to survive and go about their business can be impactful when done correctly. Sometimes terrible people get away with doing terrible things.
Yeah it's kind of the opposite of sicario. In sicario Jake loses ans the alonzo's get away with it to do it all over again
@S4mmy Yea, the characters in Sicario aren't corrupt and in it for themselves like Alonzo and they think they're doing the right thing. Well, most of them. Alejandro is in it just for revenge.

Exactly 💯 super gorgeous (you did tho but you did ) Lol 😅😅
Bonus points for recognizing Macy Gray, I think that's the first time I've seen her recognized by a reactor.
What?!?! I've never seen her in here. I'll be paying attention.
Wow! I've never caught that before.
Really??? I knew who it was based on her voice in 2 seconds flat, and I've maybe heard a couple of her songs at most. I'm also old enough to remember when she blew up 20 years ago, though.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, I totally understand why younger people wouldn't have a clue tbh. No way I'd have known if she wasn't getting radio play back then.
I don't understand how anyone could miss her just based on her voice alone, lol. A lot of younger people probably just aren't familiar with her.
Macy Gray is A R&B Singer
I love how it was the protective instincts of the rookie trying to help people that ended up saving his life, and the predatory instincts of Alonzo that cost him his.
One of Denzel's best movies. "American Gangster" is my second favorite with him.
So many good ones. So hard to pick.
@@BDogg2023 Yeah, he's just such a great actor, most of his movies are worth watching just cause of him.
American Gangster is very good
Russel Crowe is good in that as well.

He was even in another movie with Russel Crowe long ago, Virtuosity, which is a fun, cheesy flick if you’re into computers, hacking, and AI…kind of slightly relevant with what’s going on these days with AI.
"Sicario, on steroids, in the hood." Arianna should do movie taglines.
Woulda sold double opening weekend
@@Diegesis 😂🤣😂🤣👍😎👍
A really talented leading man can play a great evil villain. This performance and Tom Cruise’s performance in Collateral are truly great.
Can’t count how many times I’ve seen this movie. Was blown away when I first saw it in the theater. Amazing performance.
Same, it’s so good. It’s one of those performances that would be goofy as hell if it wasn’t done just right and he nails it.
@@davidbowman2001 Fo sho
Denzel’s acting in this movie is possibly the greatest acting ever.
License Plate # ORP 967 = Officer Rafael Perez 1967. The main player in the LAPD RAMPART scandal. His cohorts murdered Biggie Smalls.
In the anthony hamilton song “why” he says “why did denzel have to he crooked before he took it?” referring to the fact that denzel hadnt won an academy award for best actor until he played the bad guy in training day.
Jadakiss featuring Anthony Hamilton.
Cliff Curtis was first rate as Smiley. I've read so many comments mentioning how he's able to readily inhabit so many different ethnicities in his roles, always adding at the end, that Curtis is actually Maori.
he sounded more indian than mexican
Arianna has the best reactions, she's the ideal movie partner one could ask for lol. Also love the movie selection, you guys have good taste!
Absolutely love all your movie reactions but I do admit Ariannas are my absolute favorites. She is just the best. Luv her.
king kong: "leave me outta yer sh*t, alonzo. i was just trying to get home."
You wanna go home or go to jail?
I remember seeing Denzel switch to a bad guy. It was so dramatic and traumatic. Damn, such a good movie. Denzel is a LEGEND!!!
When I saw this at the cinema, I said Denzel is winning an Oscar for this role. Win an Oscar he did.
Again...2001.
Movies before 9/11 were either flops and goofy as hell or they were just HAMMERS that leave you stunned and thinking.
This was one of those films.
14:09 You might recognize "Jeff" the Cop that was Shot 'Coming through the door' as "Zed" From Pulp Fiction, "Zed's Dead"
Chad coming in clutch with these sponsorship sections. Funny and well made.
In my opinion; what makes Denzel’s character so scary is that everything he says is true, but his motives are diabolical..... 💯
Of all Denzel's many great roles, this may be my favorite. Hawk was also excellent in this.
There was one ending that was filmed had the Wise Men show up at Jake's house to say Alonzo didn't get to his drop off and wanted to know where the money was. Jake said "in evidence" or something like that and just walked into his house. Pretty much leaving the Wise Men to have this "Aw, shit" look on their faces.
That’s the version that I saw.
She's fire for knowing that bar but it was definitely Jadakiss lol
When she just say yucky I was like 🥲 adorable
The one honest duty Hoyt did, saved his life.
Yeah he picked the 14 year old girls wallet thats why
Denzel won his best actor oscar for this. His 2nd oscar. He won his first for best Supporting actor in Glory
This guy played by Denzel is the face of the United States!!!
Great Reaction!!! The Hurricane, John Q, Man on Fire, Deja Vu, Out of Sight; are all great Denzel classics as well .
@@flounder agree, forgot about that one

“Ain’t like I put a gun to your head”
Alonzo out here gaslighting like my psycho ex wife
lol, this reaction edit is the first time I noticed Hoyt using his turn signal when Alonzo tells him to pull the car over on the empty road.
That song you're referencing at the beginning is Why by Jadakiss
Funniest thing is that terry was working security on set. The director asked him to step in as one of the thugs and that’s how his acting career began
“Why Denzel have to be crooked before he took it?”
Jadakiss
Denzel in He Got Game was incredible. It was his 2nd time being in a Spike Lee directed film
He Got Game is so underrated. I truly believe that it's both one of Denzel's and Spike's best films, period. Classic!
It was actually his 3rd. First 2 were mo better blues and Malcolm X.
Its intense to watch Arianna alonzo was playing Hoyt and noticing the bathtub clean
Arianna face experience are just so priceless
He only gets caught slipping when he is following traffic laws. He went from jaywalk/running red lights to waiting for a light to turn green at night. 😂😂😂

24.57; King Kong aint got shxt on me.. That is true of Denzel's performance in this.
One hell of a movie, it really smacked reality in our faces, anxiety overload
This is in my top 5 movies, and Denzel my alltime favorite actor.❤🔥
I don’t think Alonzo planned to kill Jake from the beginning, but everything he did plan up until the 2nd trip to Rogers house was done just in case Jake wouldn’t go willingly with his plan. So when Jake wouldn’t go along even with the threat of being tested and sabotaging his career, that’s when Alonzo went with getting rid of Jake altogether.
Arianna classic crab claws the whole time. too cute. loved this reaction.
Jake doing the right thing saved his life.
Denzel is the man, he should have won more Academy awards in his career he is a damm good actor.
I’m actually glad Arianna was uncomfortable watching Training Day. Honestly, you’re supposed to be. It’s raw and unforgiving but with a purpose. Training Day is an excellent movie, but it is certainly one that pushes moral boundaries for reasons it explains within its own narrative as the events unfold.

That line was actually by Jadakiss in his song “Why” 0:13
I watch Arianna's reactions because how analytical she usually is, but this is the first time I've seen her incapable of overcoming emotions. That's a testimonial to how good the acting is in this film!
It is Macy Gray! I didn't have a clue that she was in this movie. She just seemed sort of familiar. "I Try" was a great song. Still is...
Its just stupid crazy, how many big names are in this movie, just to be on the screen for like 10 seconds^^
This was suuuuuuch a good movie. I was blown away back when I saw it in 2002 because everyone was saying that it was just "a well-acted generic cop thriller". It's much more than that. This movie is absorbing from beginning to end.

Greetings From Chile Darling🫶🏻🫶🏻❤️
I love how the report of his death was exactly word for word what he threatened jake with
Fantastic reaction. Perfect movie for Arianna to react to. Really intelligent movie reactor.
One of my favorite Denzel movies. It's a classic
The first time I watched this movie, I was so horrified, I did not want to watch it again. I did, though, a long time later. Like 8+ years at least. This movie is harsh and dark as all hell.
Love looking at Arianna 😍 in these reactions she never disappoints. Another Denzel movie that she should do is Man On Fire. (2004) 👍🏽
That line about Denzel being crooked before he took it was from Jadakiss on the song “Why?”.
They did that PCP scene on Chappelle. If you haven't seen it, find it. It's funny as hell.
😂😂 "white people love Wayne Brady, bcos he makes Bryant Gamble look like Malcom X"
@@joneschilufya867 you gotta give it to Wayne for having super sense of humor about it.
@@jaydisqus3353 😂😂 indeed Wayne did the right thing to accept the invite after Paul Mooney's dig at the Bryant Gamble joke.
There's a really good deleted scene that kind of explains how Alonzo became corrupted
If she can barely handle training day, I wonder what she would think of full metal jacket💀
I love this move so much ❤
Sometimes I’m teaching my people like him at my work place 😂
"Why did Denzel have to be crooked before he took it?" was a line from Jadakiss's "Why" featuring Anthony Hamilton.
This is what I’ve been waiting for. Cold sweet drinks beside me as a breakfast at 6am and I’m ready.
26:16 - I’ve never seen/heard Arianna speechless. I’ve been watching her for a couple yrs and this is a first.
This is 1 of Denzel’s many, outstanding roles. MAN ON FIRE is his best movie.
Ari, SICARIO: DAY OF THE SOLDADO is better than the first one. Especially, the last 5 minutes.

The best film and a probe into the criminal world and the underworld. Denzel got an Oscar, rightfully so, for his role as Alonzo.
Wow Arianna with a deep cut! WHY!!! 17:45 love this scene just captures the tension of being a "police officer". Had no idea David Ayer wrote Harsh Times, End of Watch and directed Street Kings
This is going to be good, top pick for Sunday night, many thanks

If the intention of creating art is to make you feel something then I'd say it certainly worked for Arianna.
Congrats on 100k well deserved aye 👏!!
Denzel really brought it in this performance.
Am I the only one that heard Arianna say she just watched True Detective? Please post a reaction to season 1.... One of the best single seasons ever made.
Working on it
There is a reason why he got an Oscar for this and will go down as one of the greatest of all time.
One of my favorites movies - this was an epic reaction :)
This is one of the greatest movies of all time
a very reassuring movie about the impeccable integrity of LA cops.
Alonzos character was inspired by a real CRASH unit cop by the name Rafael Perez, interesting story whos tentacles reached as far as Death Row Records.
I’d really taking a liking to my new movie watchin’ buddy - Arianna - but now I’m loving it! All of your reactions were so fun to watch
