If you want to see Denzel Washington as a professional Gangster playing the role of Frank Lucas, the actual Mobster in 1960's Harlem New York - watch *American Gangster*. An amazing movie - Similar to SCARFACE
The main Mexican gangster is a maori from New Zealand, you should really check out "once were warriors" & "what becomes of the broken hearted". The funny thing is that maoris are always portrayed as Mexican or Arab in Hollywood, because Americans dont know otherwise 😂
The corrupt cops in this film were based off real corrupt crash unit cops in LA back then. This movie is really realistic to how LA streets were back in those days.
@MKO_VOR nope the first rampart incident was in the 1970's hell there was even a LAPD scandal in the late 40's. This movie I'd an amalgamation of several historical incidents and even other cop movies like service etc. There wasn't even a Russian mafia in the 1990's. Nor was any rookie cop involved in the 1990's rampart division incident. This is not a documentary but a fictional theatrical story.
@@philmakris8507 I never said this movie was a true story, I said the overall theme of corrupt cops involved heavy in LAs underworld came from corrupt crash unit cops in the 90s.
King Kong ain’t got shiz on me!!!! Love that line, They all knew there was a green light on him, Jake took his money, they knew he wasn’t going to live another day, that’s why they let him walk. Denzel crushed this role. So cool, so charismatic, so manipulative, so terrifying!! Oscar well deserved! Thanks guys, love your reactions
NEED TO WATCH "American Gangster" "Fences" "Man on Fire" "Philadelphia" "Flight" "The Great Debaters" "Malcolm X" and "Glory" now. Denzel Washington is brilliant.
The guys who inspired Denzel's character were part of a unit called RAMPART; two of the primary inspirations were named Rafael Perez and David Mack. One of them may (or may not) have shot Biggie Smalls. There's an entire TV show about all the stuff their unit got about to called The Shield; if you like Breaking Bad you'll love that one. It has the best pilot (first episode) ever.
@@survivalrush I watched it after it was over. My brother came over to a friend's house, watched the final three episodes all in one go and his jaw was (of course) on the floor. Our friend then turned to him and said "you wanna watch another seven whole seasons of this?"
The Shield was incredible television. I love how the tension was cranked up right to the very last couple of episodes. I'm amazed that it isn't more widely known.
Please watch two more Denzel movies “Fences” , “The Great Debaters” and “American Gangster”. He has a lot of great movies to choose from but those two have amazing writing!
Please remember that woman's face that drove up next to him b4 they shot him down like 2pac. It will be a nice surprise for you guys later on, like seeing Tuco was😊
Oh, lord!! I haven't seen this since I was in middle school, so, like, 2006 lol I forgot Macey gray is in it. She plays the crackhead lady in pink with the nephew in the bathroom. She's one of my favorite singers. David letterman is obsessed with her too! 😅❤#2003 wish i had a time a time machine.

Ah, the moment you recognized Tuco there, the game is up! With him in a situation nothing good can get from it... 😅 (Raymond Cruz should be a nice guy, but his roles are REALLY scary)
The last thing you guys need is ANOTHER recommendation... but! If you're interested in a show about corrupt police (and some not so corrupt) in LA, with some good writing and some great performances, there's always "The Shield". It's quite a bit less 'cartoon-ish' than this film, and lacks Denzel Washington, but I couldn't stop watching it. More than once, too.

Thank you for the action movie I've grown to like them a lot. Sometimes I like them more than romantic movies. I blame it on my dad. As a young girl my dad and I would watch black belt theater and he would watch WW2 movies. I love Shirley Temple movies but I like action too
Fun fact: the head of the Mexican gang trio is played by a Persian American actor. And the bald one has been in many movies buthis character always ends up being named Hector. You guys should check out the first FAST AND FURIOUS movie and L.A. CONFIDENTIAL
A couple of recommendations of movies that, just like this one, kinda messes with you a bit, pulls you in, and - at least for the duration of the movie - makes you question things: Sicario (2015) Shot Caller (2017)
If you want to watch a truly great movie, check out The Last of the Mohicans. I am sincerely curious to see what you guys have to say about that. The height of western colonialism put to film.
Glad you guys enjoyed the movie. One of Denzel’s iconic roles. I hope you dive into more of his films, one the best actors in Hollywood. Other great Denzel movies: Malcolm X Glory Inside Man Crimson Tide Remember the Titans There are so many you really can’t go wrong any. 🩷
Denzel won the Academy Award for Best Actor in this role

Couldn't agree more
The way Denzel gasped for life is so good. As someone who has seen a few last breaths, its spot on. Brilliant movie
Hell yeah one of my favorite movies ever! KING KONG AIN'T GOT SHIT ON ME!

Any Denzel Washington movie is going to be an A+ phenomenal actor

Very very very loosely based on an incident in the 1970's
@@philmakris8507 no, the 1990s

Best reactors on TH-cam
I agree!
this guys are genuine the rest are acting.
Honestly these guys do have a true pure reaction to the movies they watch .
Denzel Washington is one of the best actors ever
Yup. I agree 👍🏾.
Awesome reaction guys

Don't forget "Fallen"
All those are average.
'Man on Fire' is by far the best!
You have to put 'The Equalizer' on that list
These guys aren't watching Philadelphia lol
@CaseyQ I think they would appreciate it, if not empathize with it.

How have you not done Malcolm X? Denzel won an Oscar for Training Day but we all know it was actually for Malcolm X.
Denzel and Ethan Hawke are both in THE 🎥MAGNIFICENT 7 (2016)
3:47 "he looks more like our cops" 😂😂😂
Man, this movie was filmed in my neighborhood, literally like two blocks away from me😅 around MacArthur Park in Los Angeles.
Love your reactions guys. This is a pretty messed up movie. Another good movie with Denzel Washington, is the equalizer.✌️
Please watch two more Denzel movies “Fences” , “The Great Debaters” and “American Gangster”. He has a lot of great movies to choose from but those two have amazing writing!
Next movie must be "Man On Fire - 2004" with Denzel Washington...

Denzel Washington was completely amazing in this role.
I'm from LA and can tell you that the cops here are just like Denzel Washington in this movie.
Here we goooooo
IF Y’all Like This Y’all Gotta Watch American Gangsters It was Great Too Just Like This
Great movie .

He's actually from New Zeland
Have you guys ever seen Denzel in a movie before this? He's one the best actors out there!
I think that you two Habibi Brothers would most definitely enjoy the movie A Simple Plan. 👍 Have a good weekend.
✌️
watch a movie called "fallen" its one of denzel Washington's best
Like your reactions. This was a good movie.
Glad you enjoyed it
The cop with the tattoo is a real thing in LA, but with the sheriff's department. They have their own gangs
Some versions at the time tinted the red gang colors orange to avoid being associated with the actual Bloods.
Man on Fire is another great Denzel Washington movie.
Koolska.
The ghetto’s in California look nice compared to over here in Tennessee
Hopefully we can get more reactions to this film
Pelican brief is another superb denzel/Julia Robert's movie.
King Kong ain't got sh*t on this reply!
A couple of recommendations of movies that, just like this one, kinda messes with you a bit, pulls you in, and - at least for the duration of the movie - makes you question things:
Sicario (2015)
Shot Caller (2017)
Luv u guys. Pls watch THE DEVIL ALL THE TIME.
It's newer and fantastic
Denzel is such a nice guy outside of character it's still weird to see him play this part in this movie.
LA in the 80s n 90s was insane.
Welcome to real American culture.
Hey guys. I think you might like the 13th Warrior
If you want to watch a truly great movie, check out The Last of the Mohicans. I am sincerely curious to see what you guys have to say about that. The height of western colonialism put to film.
Not one of his best movie. Not sure if you have seen Crimson Tide a five star movie.
Not my favorite denzel movie. Ya'll should watch Fallen. You're very religious. I think you'd find it interesting.
Glad you guys enjoyed the movie. One of Denzel’s iconic roles. I hope you dive into more of his films, one the best actors in Hollywood. Other great Denzel movies:
Malcolm X
Glory
Inside Man
Crimson Tide
Remember the Titans
There are so many you really can’t go wrong any. 🩷
