"Creasy's art is death... he's about to paint his masterpiece." Such a badass line.
Along with "forgiveness is between them and god I just arrange the meeting."
My fave line!!
SO GREAT! 2nd favorite line for me. The favorite...and I even say it randomly today..."Last wish? I wish...you had...more time."
Ultimate Mic Drop for me.
Very good all of them,but "What are you gonna do?" - "What I do best. I'm gonna kill 'em...
💯
“Forgiveness is between them and God. It’s my job to arrange the meeting.” Ice cold
A Man on Fire is one of my favorite Denzel Washington movies. The chemistry between him and Dakota Fanning is amazing and I totally believe the father-daughter relationship they formed in the movie.
this and the hospital one
@@martinacosta3821You mean ER?
Great they are together again in Equalizer 3 also......
Tony Scott was in top form when he directed this. He and Denzel collaborated on a lot of films (crimson tide, Deja vu, man on fire, taking of Pelham 123, and unstoppable). One of the best action filmmakers ever, and sadly missed.
I really liked Unstoppable!
Tony was absolutely brilliant. I think we're all feeling his loss to this day. I was a truly phenomenal filmmaker. There was a power and conscience at the heart of his projects that were unique. He could punch you the gut, while directing a beautiful intimacy with his on screen characters. I haven't seen Unstoppable. I'll need to check that out.
I've seen this movie so many times, the end scene between Creasy and Pita always makes me cry.
It’s a true story! That explains the hole in the story from a literary perspective. That being said….Creasy held all the cards! He had the guy’s brother, wife, and six kids! He didn’t have to sacrifice his life in exchange for Lupita’s! He could have simply said “ every hour that passes and Pita isn’t here, I’m killing one of your kids! I’m putting their names in a bowl and your brother will pull out the names blindfolded! BTW….unbeknownst to him his name is in there too! “ That’s screenwriting! But the stayed close to the truth! IJS….
@@bobhobbs4332it’s not a true story. The movie is based on a novel
Not sure if anyone else helped with the whole "bullet" scenario. However, Creasy tried "offing himself" at the house the night he called his friend when it was raining and the bullet misfired. You two thought he ended up not pulling trigger when he, in fact, did pull the trigger. It didn't fire. The saying "the bullet always tells the truth" came from that scene. It didn't fire for Creasy but the same exact bufllet did fire for Ramos (Pit's father).
Pita's father *
BTW, yes this is "loosly" based on the true story.
Such a good movie. The bond between Denzel and Dakota was heartwarming. (Felt nice to see them together again in Equalizer 3)
This has one of the best lines in film in my opinion and its from a supporting character... "A man can be an artist, in anything, food...whatever. All that matters is how good he is at it. Creasy's art is death and he's about to paint his masterpiece..." This is one of the Scott Brothers best films, hands down. The pain, the rage, the depression, the heartache after finding some kind of peace after a lifetime of death taken away. Denzel channels the role first played by Scott Glenn, masterfully.
meh, feeds into toxic masculinity that violence solves all
Do also check out Déjà Vu (2006) from the same director, where he works with Denzel Washington again. Ta. 🧡
The movie invests time in developing the connection between Lupita and Creasy, allowing the audience to genuinely sense how Creasy finds a newfound purpose in life. Lupita's refusal to see him as a lost cause becomes crucial, intensifying the emotions when she is taken. The final scene is incredibly moving, consistently bringing tears to my eyes as it beautifully portrays the depth of their love for each other.
"I wish. You had. More time." 💣💥
@33:50 Not exactly. Denzel tried to kill himself with that bullet. He pulled the trigger and the firing pin hit the back of the bullet (the primer) leaving a dent but failing to set off the bullet's charge and kill him. When he calls Christopher Walker and asks him about a bullet misfiring (which honestly he would be well aware of if he was even in the military for a month - it's not very uncommon), Walker tells him, "you're talking about a bad primer." When he gives the same bullet to Pita's dad, he tells him "It didn't work for me but maybe it will for you." Usually if you fire a bullet with a bad primer a second time, it will usually fire normally. In his case, it obviously did. Dakota Fanning is just amazing in this. If I had a daughter, I would want her to be Dakota.
It is from a book of the same name released in 1980. The author researched actual kidnapping events in Mexico. It is loosely based on some true stories woven together: According to the post on the entertainment network's website, Pita's (Dakota Fanning) kidnapping was based on a similar kidnapping of a girl, whose family thought she was dead for three days before finding her. While this plot point is also clearly inspired by A.J.'s tale, it's unclear if the two pieces of inspiration are related.
Some of the characters, like Fuentes (Jesús Ochoa), were based on real people as well, and there is actually an organization of corrupt police officers known as La Hermandad.
It's possible the scriptwriters took extra liberties when pulling from A.J.'s plot, adding in plot points based on real events to make the movie more believable.
It was going to be based on a true story from Italy, in which a bodyguard for a young boy went on a revenge rampage when the Mafia kidnapped and killed the boy (the bodyguard tracked down and killed at least a couple of kidnappers).
By the time the movie was ready to be made, the Mafia wasn't as active anymore, so they decided to switch the story to Mexico ('kidnapping capital of the world' by then.)
I believe they blended that true story with another true story involving a real kidnapping gang in Mexico, led by 'The Voice' (a former chief of police in Mexico) and his brother. The gang was notorious for brutality (sending body parts to families upfront, just to 'open communications') and apparently collected nearly $1 billion in ransom before they were taken down.
So it's two basically true stories, blended, with lots of added Hollywood drama (I don't think the Creasy character in this was real, or Pita's character)
I mean baby Dakota Fanning was just amazing. Nobody who saw this at the time had any doubt she was going to be a star.
one of the greatest movies ever made and my favorite from him. the way she teaches him to live again is so beautiful. such a great underrated movie.
" Revenge is a meal, best serve cold "
My favorite movie of all time.
Biss, there are a ton of Denzel movies to watch. The equalizer movies. There are 3 of those. John Q. Training day. Crimson Tide. The Bone Collector. Fallen. Remember the titans. Fences. Unstoppable. The taking of Pelham 123, and many more. ..🙂
Equalizer 3 is good with both of them
"Oh, you don't know?" LOL!!!! YES!!! ONE OF MY FAVORITES!!!! Hi, Hayley!!! I miss those Spider-Man cut-scenes with you!!!! THANKS for this!!!!!
Now, watch Denzel Washington again in Equalizer trilogy.
they already have those reactions
@@clevelandcbi yeah I noticed that to when I first subscribed so if I see anybody ask about a movie they already saw I just tell them a different group reacted to it already a few channels I follow do it, some even watch the movies over again
This is a great thriller! I really enjoyed your reaction!
Denzel’s character on this is way better than Training Day.
33:40 ~ He was talking about earlier in the movie when he pulled the trigger to un-alive himself & the gun didn't fire.
Pita’s father is American. Marc Anthony, ex of Jenifer Lopez. He is a great singer. Pita’s mom is an Australian actor.
You guys said, "How did they know? About them publishing the picture of the "voice". Remember the scene before showing the bad guys installing a camera in the room. The can hear and see everything.
Who knew you could make insurance fraud so entertaining 😅❤
Neat fact. The reporter actress is same one who played in original predator movie
These reactors have about as much emotion as a concrete block..
Creasy was a highly trained and very deadly former CIA black Ops specialist. He was involved in some extremely horrific operations that took a very heavy toll on his mind and spirit. John W. Creasy was an honorable man with a very grim sense of justice. He was the last man you wanted to push or lie to, that was the swiftest way to meet your maker. Creasy was indeed an artist in death, and he handed out more justice in Mexico City than their court did in a Decade. And yes, this is based on the true story of what happened in Mexico City in Nov/Dec. 2003.
Ah yes! Was calling for this since the equaliser watch alongs.
awesome reaction.
very good .
well done.
Please do this movie again with some of your other reactors.
One Favorite Action Movies!😱🫣💥🥰🙆♀️🖥💓
Also here’s a nice bit of trivia:
In “King of New York” the movie ended with Christopher Walkens character dying from blood loss, before he could be taken. Just like Denzel’s character in THIS movie, co-starring Christopher Walken 😂
I always enjoy a good Man on Fire reaction, Denzel at peak performance, but they edited out so many good lines and moments in the film I feel like but still enjoyed it
All the things that he had done drove him to drinking to numb the memories, that’s why he asked if God would forgive them for what they had done. Saving Pita, for him, was redemption.
I think its funny, the one contentious part of the movie is the "John W Creasy, born this date and died on this date" always misleads the audience to think its historically based
Saludos desde la República Dominicana excelente video ♥️
There is an indian remake of this movie with amitabh bachchan playing the role of Denzel. The movie name is "ek ajnabee" translated as " a stranger". Arjun rampal played in it as well
The obituary at the end gives the impression that it's a true story but it's only for dramatic effect. One of my fave Denzel movies.
Still an amazing film, and I love it every time I see it when I have the opportunity to sit down. Thank you 🌹
Whoever is choosing the movies give that person a raise
Wow girls. Ur editor cut out some key quotes from this movie:
- Sister Anna to Creasy (Pita’s swim meet):
“today u r her father”
- Creasy under the bridge:
Fuentes: “a last wish, please, please. Please”
Creasy: “last wish? I wish … u had … more time”
- Old folks apt:
Old man: “in the church, they say to forgive”
Creasy: “forgiveness is between them and God. It’s my job to arrange the meeting”
- Rayburn speaking to Miguel (AFI agent)
“A man can b an artist ….. in anything, food, whatever. It depends on how good, he is at it.
Creasy’s art is death. He’s about to paint his masterpiece.”
"Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold". If anyone ever touches my granddaughter, let heaven help me, but the devil empower me. I would need forgiveness, but I would not expect it.
Yes, this was loosely based on a true story. It you enjoyed Dakota Faning and Denzel acting together, you should watch the Equalizer trilogy because they reunite in Equalizer 3.
This movie technically is a remake, but it & the original were based on a book based on a compilation of a few different true kidnapping stories.
"Pita like the bread". 😂 Yes, but no. Spelled the same, but is actually a nickname for Lupita, which translates to the feminine of "little wolf".
Also fyi they team up all these years later in EQUALIZER 3
It is a movie based on actual events, but the Creasy character was based on two men. I think one was CIA and the other former military.
Creesy tried to shoot himself that night, but the bullet failed to fire. He kept that bullet and then gave it to Lupita’s father who used it to shoot himself.
The movie isn't based on an true story, it's just a thing the director does. Still a great movie.
It was a true story! If you had the patience to let the credits play and watch them you would have seen pictures of all the people who the actors portrayed! ❤
Perfect acting, perfect directing and perfect editing and reaction. I enjoyed every moment.
When in Mexico if you get stopped without a reason please always record. Because the cartel nowadays they have them on a payroll.
Guys.. What was that sound at the beginning...!!!??? 😇
Forgiveness is between them and God. It's my job to arrange the meeting.
"She showed him it was alright to live again." Great movie
Fantastic movie!!! LETS GOOOOO!!! 💪😎💪
I LOVE Radha Mitchell in this and Pitch Black!! 💘💗🥰
@@michaelriddick7116 Me too, she's such an underrated actress, loved her in those two as well as Silent Hill, The Crazies & Phone Booth, hope Cinepals reacts to them one day. They're so good.
I see film like punisher
It's a remake of a Scott Glen movie from the 80's. Both are really good.
It showed him trying to shoot himself in the head and then he had the conversation to his mate about a bullet knowing. You missed that I think. Likewise when you saw his resume and Lupita's Father Daniel was asking him about his work in counter terrorism and such, you did not pick up on his experience in the military at a high level. I think you missed that too.
Idk who decided to cut the final minutes of the movie - the studio or Mr. Scott himself - but I do prefer his alternate ending (you can find it here on youtube).
Apparently, test audiences didn't like it. It made Creasy seem a little too psycho or something.
Everyone's tastes are their own of course, but I think this is a better ending. It makes Creasy's sacrifice for Pita purer, more noble when it doesn't add in revenge against The Voice, justice for The Voice, etc, as additional motives for Creasy.
Ending on such a sad note elevates an already great movie, instead of ending with "Ya! Got him!' 'Fuck you, Daniel', and so on (though they do fill in Daniel's fate anyway)
Also, I believe 'The Voice' is based on a real character (ex chief of police in Mexico who ran one of the most brutal, successful kidnapping gangs before he was taken down). So his end in this movie might be more accurate. It always provokes the same surprised reaction from viewers ('OMG, is this a true story?'), and that might be lost if Creasy takes him out.
It's always a good reaction when Hayley is involved.
This is the Real Actor with a Class.
If you haven't seen it already another good Denzel Washington movie is Out of time, it gets over looked IMO.
The bullet that Creasy/Denzel gives to the father is the one that he used to try to K himself, but it failed to fire. He then called Christopher Walken to ask about failed ammunition. That is what he meant by "It didn't work for me".
"A bullet always tells the truth. It never lies." Ahhh So Good!
I wish you had more time! 😁
Lisa Gerrard!
I think it's only fair that I let you know what you meant about the bullet he tried to end it all at 1 point and it was a misfire... And that what set him on his journey believing he had more to do and he was saying to her father if the Gun doesn't go off then that means you have more to do
Can you guys react to Denzel Washington American Gangster
The movie is remarkable, when a mother gives you blessing to go to war, no questions asked, you listen.
Man, I miss Tony Scott.
Ik this probaly ain't the video to ask this butttttt #jaby you guys doing the bothers sun still
I love this movie between this and training day I’m not even sure which I love more but I know I love the dynamic between him and Dakota. The way she slowly breaks down his walls she showed him it was okay to live again, that he could do good in this world also he did pull the trigger the gun just misfired but, the same bullet fired when pitas dad killed himself the bullet doesn’t lie.
Side note this is my favorite quote: “what are you gonna do ?”
“What I do best. Im gonna kill ‘em. Anyone who was involved. Anybody who profited from it. Anybody who will open their eyes at me” CHILLS
Before he called, Christopher Walken, he actually tried to commit suicide, he actually pull the trigger, and since he didn’t work, he called Christopher Walken, to ask him about the
Check out who plays father. Bet you surprised
I haven't seen this movie since it was in theaters and I remember not being too crazy about it, but after seeing the clips here, it appears to be a better movie than I remember. I should give it another watch. I suppose my expectations weren't very realistic at the time, I don't know. Also, as much of a fan as I was of Tony Scott, it always bothered me how he kept doing that shaky-cam and flashing thing in his movies during the late 90s and early 2000s. He let up on it in his later stuff, but for a while there, it was very distracting and annoying.
Quietest reaction I've ever watched
I’ve watched grown men react to this movie and cringe when they cut the fingers off and be moved to tears literally and these girls just sit there stoic and even wiggle and dance to the music while people are getting tortured. Women do not have the empathy society has always claimed
29:42 Most spectacular collective reaction of the century. Chills.
Should react to “four brother” starring mark wahlbeg, Tyrese Gibson, Andrea3000, and Garret Hedlund and so many great actors the cast is honestly stacked.
That is a remake of the 1965 western "The Sons of Katie Elder"
The original, with Scott Glenn, is very good too, but much slower and moodier.
All of Denzel's collabs with Tony Scott (RIP) are worth checking out. Crimson Tide, Taking of Pelham 123 remake, Deja Vu, and Unstoppable all make great use of Denzel.
YEEEESSSSS! I'm so glad y'all are watching this. Seriously... one of my Top 2 favorite movies...PERIOD! Also includes some of my favorite quotes
Two Hot Girls watching 1 Legend !
I'm All in 👀🍿
but seriously... legit one of Denzels greatest💯
stay Awesome ⭐️
When God sends an avenging Angel he doesn't play by our rules
Quick Google search says,
The movie is fictional, and its events are not based on a true story. However, it is based on a novel of the same name written by Philip Nicholson as A. J. Quinnell and published in 1980.
This film is based on a true story that happened in the late 60’s except the kid was a little boy. Her bodyguard was a former spy and CIA assassin. Of course the United States denied that he ever was part of the agency when it blew into an international news story. The guy killed over 20 high ranking police officials that even had Interpol involved. Unfortunately the little boy was dead, but he rained fire and brimstone on the kidnappers and drug dealers. The Mexican government had intelligence about him and the whole of Mexico City was terrified if they were involved in drugs and kidnapping. I remember reading about it in the papers, and I guess he tortured some of his victims in horrific ways because the Mexican government wouldn’t release the methods of death for many because it was so gruesome. If my memory serves me right once he recovered the little boy he just disappeared. I might be wrong about that but that’s how I remember it.
Such a weak reaction,best scene that was too much cut
Absolutely. It's like you got to walk these reactors through everything and handhold them
Please react to blood diamond
Creasy bear ❤ i am watching man on fire right now on tv . Seen it many times but will still cry at the end
R.I.P. Tony Scott
Great movie, but I never understood why he didn't just leverage the kidnapper's family for the little girl. If you don't give me the girl....I'll kill your family????
The little girl is from the true bloods from twilight movies and she reunited with denzel washington in the equilizer 3. 20 years later.. oh and yes it was based on a true story. But creasy was tortured and all and the actual fact he was carrying a bomb and a tracker up his thing . That's how the voice was found. The directors cut they show it.
I love this movie, but my favourite Denzel flic will always be "John Q"
RIP Tony Scott
Fantastic film. Check out Book of Eli.
I would say part 2 has much less blood, more story. Watch it PLEASE 🙏
“Don’t be overcome by evil. But overcome evil with good.” Romans 12:21. “I’m the sheep that got lost madre.”
Not a true story, but based on 2 true stories. (short answer).
