About this deal

While WB went all out for the A/V package, they skimped on the extras recycling the same old assortment of materials that dates back to the stone age of DVD. Training Day's ensemble is arrestingly eclectic, mixing trendsetting musicianswith an assortment of talented character actors. It looks like in the US it includes the new remastered blu but who knows here as it's not always consistent. Hawke is the counterbalance as the fresh faced, fish out of water trying his hardest to ‘man up’ and prove his mettle to Alonzo.

Training Day: Crossing the Line– This is more of the same and, for whatever reason, it’s been renamed from “First Look: The Making of Training Day. And Eva Mendes (The Other Guys) brings a sense of grace to the role of Alonzo's neglected partner, her character serving to reveal a whole new dimension to Washington's relentless detective.arrangement_cancelled":"Plan Cancelled","arrangement_failed_to_cancel":"Failed to cancel plan","back_to_plans":"\u2190 Back to Plans","update_payment_method_verb":"Update","sca_auth_description":"Your have a pending renewal payment which requires authorization.

This s***'s chess, it ain't checkers," Alonzo opines to Jake about the difficulties of reeling in high-level criminals. There’s a clear point before the final act where the film stops being a searing shocking thriller and then rolls into generic action flick mode. Watching Jake turn from a nervous gun shy recruit into a hardened cop who must do what he must to get his man, and Harris turn from the power man in charge to a near infant at the end, begging for his life, is just mesmerizing. Details are stunning, with great outdoor shots and a nice, natural, layer of grain over the whole production. Bass is impressive as well, with punchy low end to accentuate shotgun blasts, helicopters flying overhead, and the roar of a muscle car as it surges to cut off a perp.on a crafty, silver-tongued anti-hero whose questionable approach to law enforcement made for a rocky but unforgettable ride. Facial features, details in the grimy city streets and neighborhoods, and the film’s excellent production values are all on display.

Dialogue is keenly prioritised throughout, coming across clearly and coherent across the duration, often delivered in flat out shouts with Washington on furious form. Ethan Hawke co-stars as rookie Los Angeles narcotics officer Jake Hoyt who is assigned to the 13-year veteran Detective Sergeant Alonzo Harris (Denzel Washington) for his first day on the job.

Director Antoine Fuqua's lensing has a clear sense of the Los Angeles streets in all their multifaceted glory (further elevated by an excellent soundtrack including an opening 'Forget About Dre'salvo that works wonders in establishing Alonzo's raw philosophy).I wanted the light to hit, I wanted that drama, but I didn’t want to bury the tension in what you don’t see. turned in some of his most bracing work for this amplified tale of "good cop, bad cop" during one particularly eventful day in Los Angeles. As the day progresses, the lines between the law enforcers and the criminals become increasingly blurred, especially when it is revealed that Alonzo is in debt to Russian gangsters and must find the staggering amount of money in 24-hours or face the consequences.

With a growling, ominous score portending doom at every stage, strong cinematography from regular Fuqua collaborator Mauro Fiore, and some excellent supporting turns from the likes of Scott Glenn, Cliff Curtis and Eva Mendes, Training Day doesn't necessarily do anything desperately new (everything from the Dirty Harry movies to Copland; Bad Lieutenant to Serpico covered this ground before) but nonetheless manages to earn a badge for distinctiveness courtesy of Washington alone. While the film lags in its second half and morphs into a relatively routine cat-and-mouse thriller, Fuqua manages to make even the most unbelievable plot scenarios work in his favor. A memorable scene where Washington’s Alonzo gives Hawke’s Jake PCP to smoke gave the colorist a chance to take the trippy visuals beyond what was possible in 2001. When he's not immersed in the world of media, Jeff loves spending quality time swearing at his favorite sports teams with his family.We reviewed the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray release of Training Day on an LG 55B7 Dolby Vision 4K Ultra HD OLED TV with a Panasonic DP-UB820EB-K Dolby Vision HDR10+ 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player. It’s a real lesson in how ugly it can be, so what he didn’t want was a pretty background to that story. Training Day is on UK 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray as a standalone 4K release and as part of the Warner Bros. There’s an HDR moment that happens right at the capture stage, which gives us a better color fidelity, a wider range in the low lights, and wider range in the highlights, so we were starting from the best possible place to capture as much as we can out of the original. The first being Jake Hoyt (Ethan Hawke), a rookie who is riding along as partner for the day with Narcotics officer Alonzo Harris (Denzel Washington) as he tries to get out of being a lowly beat cop and move up the ranks at an accelerated pace.
