Training Day is a story of a novice cop who is given a day to learn the tricks of busting up Narcotics Racket in LA.Ethan Hawke plays Jake , the amateur LAPD cop and Denzel Washington plays Alonzo Harris , the weirdo Narcotics Detective.
Alonzo is entrusted with the job to impart training to Jake for a day and this forms the boundaries of the film.
The director has shot pretty authentic stuff ranging from the street brawls of LA to niggers & pimps dirtying the streets with drugs and booze.
The movie itself tends to linger along with no particular direction. Ethan Hawke does his best to play the confused nascent cop who has just given parking tickets past 9 months of his duty.
Denzel has put in a sterling performance and the oscar was truly deserved.
Apart from the performances , the film didn't impress me much in terms of the screenplay and the objective behind the storyline.
Strictly for Denzel fans ....
Rating : 2.5 / 5.0
