- My god this was an amazing movie! I am happy I was able to experience this movie for the first time with you all! I love movies like Training Day because they make you think deeply, and bring up uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke are amazing in this and what a nice surprise to see Cliff Curtis and Tuco from Breaking Bad. Hope you all stick around for the discussion in the end. This movie brought up some really deep stuff that needed to be talked about!

I meant to say SCAR and the hyenas from The Lion King lol. I want to add something to make myself very clear. When I brought up gangs and them protecting the neighborhoods. This was something that used to be done. The reason gangs were created was to protect the people. However this has obviously changed and there is needless murder and death and other horrific things that go on in gangs. In no way am I condoning gangs or gang violence. And to those affected by gang violence I am truly sorry. I wish people could work together and stop fighting each other for petty reasons. We are all more alike than we know and as I said in this reaction. Why do we have to either be a wolf or a sheep? Why can’t we be a shepherd.
Sorry for asking again.
But.
What happend with the AoT reactions Imon 😭?
Speaking about the Police being a gang, look up Los Banditos. The East La(where I lived all my life) Sherriff's got exposed as a real gang. Not only were they corrupt, they would force the female officers to do sexual acts. There were over 20 officers that were exposed and just recently more has been uncovered.
You need to watch " SICARIO " Please... do a reaction on it🤗💛
Seriously though, all those movies you listed that "you missed" you should seriously watch. . . .legendary films
i enjoyed it
As someone who's been held at gunpoint by both local cops and local gangsters, I can whole heartedly say gangs dont protect the neighborhood either. Especially since younger and younger people get into gangs and become more reckless to impress ogs. Just before the pandemic I was walking home with food for my mom and was robbed by an armed teenager while the big dog waited in the truck. Before that, I was arrested for smoking in a car and the cops raided my apt because the outside looked like a crack house. They were dissapointed when all they found were comics, Pops and Anime statues. I get why you hate LA
I’m sorry that’s happened to you and so many other people. I’m in no way defending gang members. But I understand why gangs were created in the first place. Doesn’t mean things are the same anymore at all though.
I commented this in a state of frustration, since it brought up some serious issues, but this film does potray gangs as gallant/honorable so I see your reasoning 100%
@@Dannydarko27I am extremely sorry that happened to you, but from my experience I've actually seen gangs stand up for the neighborhood they were in. Helping the people as well and sticking up for them, and ofc they were gangs so there as occasional shooting where I lived but afterwards they always did go door to door seeing if people were OK. Not trying to make them out to be heroes or anything because people still didn't like them and they most of the time never really made it easier. I was still poor and scared but they grew up in that neighborhood and they respected it and I could see that to an extent, so when I saw this movie I actually remember that neighborhood especially at the last few scenes of the movie. Some gang members even spoke to me in a kind manner telling me not to choose the path they chose because they were born into it. This wasn't saying you were wrong or all gangs are good I was just giving my personal childhood experiences. Once again though I am sorry you went through that
@@renzuassassin3724 all the teenagers shooting others teenagers in the hood or girl moms been gang assaulted sexually but those are rarely talked about but by no means rare happened, protections from others came at a cost always you are substituting violence and terror with a different violence and terror or pay us
Yea I was a little unsure about that statement from Imon as well, but when you think about it, it's true in some regards. For example, the people who robbed you may not necessarily live on your block/street or even neighborhood. But if there was a rival gang on your block that saw this gang in your neighborhood it might have deterred the people who ended up robbing you. There is no black and white.
"What about a Shepherd?" That.. floored me. I've seen this movie so many times and never had that thought. Amazing perspective, Imon! Thanks for that.
The Shepard is one man, the wolves are many. If you've seen the Grey you know what happens to man vs wolves
Same. She's thinking outside the box
Blasphemous! That’s why! 😝you the messiah fool?
@@Dannydarko27 if u saw the grey you’d know there was two endings. The odds being against u don’t mean it’s impossible to overcome.
the best shepherd's use sheep dogs to protect the flock and sheep dogs are just nicer wolves.
"Why does he look like Malcolm X?"
He actually played Malcolm X in Spike Lee's 1992 film.
Alonzo knows full well that he's not respected, nor does he doesn't respect them. He even calls them busters. But he's a cop and he's connected, so he thinks he's untouchable.
My favorite Denzel movie
Sounds like the democrat party.
Every time I watch this movie I get chills. Denzel definitely deserved that Oscar!
Alonzo was so evil. If you go back to after the raid on Roger's house, when Jake was waiting outside the car, Alonzo walks over and gets inside. If you listen closely, you can hear him say on his cell, "yeah, just make sure that bathtub's clean". Savage!!
Wooooow!! I definitely need to re-watch this movie
"Remember that fool in the wheelchair? How do you think he got there?" That's one of the quotes that made me realize that there's levels to this movie that I had to rewatch to get. So many connections & ah-ha moments
There's tons.
Some that come to mind in no particular order:
1) When Smiley shows a police issue Beretta. "You mean like this one?" which implies that Alonzo might have had them kill another cop prior.
2) The attempted rape victim mentions "Hillside Trece" and Sniper has a "Hillside" tattoo on his back.
3) "They got beatdown, they lost their rock and their money, and those eses from Hillside are probably going to smoke them."
Alonzo gets beatdown, loses his badge and his money, and those Russians smoked him.
4) Jake carrying the money to pay for his own murder.
How Alonzo was a improviser. He tells Jake to grab menu on car using it later as a fake warrant. He goes over Rogers's house & ask him in a subtle way what he was doing later. If Roger wasn't going to be there does Alonzo still rob him or does he have someone else he can Rob (remember he's improvising). He goes after Snoop to for Sandman. What if Snoop stayed home that day. He finds someone else or the kids he robs to get there drugs. Finally when Jake saves the girl he asks her who her people are. Instantly Alonzo knows who they are & right then & there decides if I have to kill Jake that's who I will use never knowing he got the wallet. When Alonzo finally decides he has to kill Jake his last plea is please take the money which he didn't. He even tried to improvise when Jake breaks into his house. "Congratulations you passed the test" lol
@@libertatemadvocatus1797 don't forget at the end when the news reports Alonzo death it's the exact way Alonzo says they'll report Jakes death in Rogers house
I was so disgusted when he said that.
That line didn't even make sense. How come Snoop's character didn't recognize him then if he's the one who crippled him?
This movie deserves a second viewing to catch all the subtle clues that makes you look at scenes from a different angle.
I'd even venture to say a 3rd or 4th
Exactly even to the wallet not being as coincidental as it looks. The menu Denzel tells him get from the window. Why he goes over Rogers's place. The bathtub line. The subtle hints he tries to give Jake to turn. It goes on & on
yep, because she talked over some dialogues too
Crazy how all these events transpired in one day.
I loved that part so much!
The snail analogy is about how a minor transgression you did a year ago that you forgot might be a major event to the other party, who comes back looking for beef. It'll find you when you're off guard. The moral is to not set aggression in motion on the streets when you're out there every day
Well I'll be damned 🤔👍
This applies both ways. Hence, the girls wallet saving his life
Although the details of the story are fictional Denzel's character and look were based on a real-life, notoriously-crooked LAPD cop, Rafael (Ray) Perez, who was involved in all sorts of shady stuff in the early '90s (e.g., drug-dealing, bad shootings, fabricated evidence) and eventually got busted.
LAPD is still crooked to this day.
"Flipping Pigeons" is what you saw Terry Crews doing; which is basically what they do in the neighborhood to signal everyone that the police are coming through.
This is for sure one of Denzel's best work.
This Movie Reminds Me Of That Jadakiss Line
"Why Did Denzel Have To Be Crooked Before He Took It?"
Speaking To Him Finally Getting An Award For His Work When He Played A Dirty Cop As If He Hasn't Exhibited Masterful Acting For YEARS
With All That Said, He Played The Shit Out Of This Role And I Still Quote It Today
So where’s the office? Back at the division? “You’re in the office baby” 😂😂 this whole movie is a classic!!!
Great reaction, and I loved your discussion! Some very astute observations and many salient points. Keep up the fantastic work! I can't wait for more!
I also just realized the fact Alonzo was using his own son as bait to kill Jake shows how despicable & evil his character was just to save his own self
These young kids like "its just weed. Come on...."
When this film was made, pot was VERY illegal.
Still should be.
@@jiveturkey8263 lol grow up
@@haraldisdead A pot smoking clown telling me to 'grow up'. 🤔No irony there. 🙄
I was a real punk when i was a kid, and always back-talking to police. I realized once i got older... When u get pulled over if u follow the rules and show respect, your odds of having a better interaction increase SIGNIFICANTLY! I have been let out of MANY tickets and also had WAAAY more positive interactions with police. Nobody EVER gets shot when u follow their directions! Its always someone running away or whatever. If u have illegal guns or substances, U KNOW its illegal. So when u get pulled over TAKE YOUR MEDICINE. You got caught. Period. If u try to run, BAD THINGS are going to happen!!!!!
Sadly younger people arent taught, or are too egotistical to follow the rules like putting your hands on the wheel when the police approach your car, and speak calm and respectful. People dont realize every cop is frightened when they pull someone over. You never know what kind of person is in the car, their attitude, if they have a gun, or drugs, etc etc etc. Every cop just wants to go home alive every single night. Its not an easy job
Thing is is that there are known instances where people ARE giving the respect you’re talking about and they still get harassed and/or assaulted, or in some cases people are harassed/assaulted before they could even have the chance to react. You may be right about cops being afraid when they pull someone over, but the same applies for the person who’s under that cops power when they’re getting pulled over. Now you have 2 people who are both afraid engaging with each other.
Your individual experiences doesn’t apply to all people. Certain people, in certain places are going to get harassed no matter much respect they give, some people are aware of this and that’s why they don’t bother giving respect when they’re being confronted. Also just a side note - no one is obligated to give respect to a stranger no matter what their occupation is.
You’re right. Cops have no idea what kind of person they’re engaging with, and they do want to make it home safe. But that applies to ALL people. All people want to make it home safe.
Hypothetically, how do I know the cop that’s pulling me over isn’t an evil person with a badge who’s intention are harmful to me?
most of the time that is true but there are some real racist monsters in the police forces especially in small towns in the deep south like here in Florida where I live. They are the minority in the police forces. I have had the cops get called on me because of a heated 'situation' i got into. The cops that were responding to the call knew I was a military vet that was having a PTSD episode. But I had calmed down by the time they arrived. They had a gun pulled on me pointed right at my head. It wasnt a big deal to me I just wondered how likely a mistake could have happened that ended with me getting a bullet to the head. I also have read about people who take prescription medicine that is habit forming for years like Xanax getting arrested and not having access to their meds in jail because the cops dont care so the person ends up dying of a seizure. This again is more common in certain small town in the south. Police departments in major metropolitan areas have you medically examinated if you need any medication like if you're HIV positive and need meds.
@@BIGxBOSSxx1 That's why cameras are great. The percentage of people being killed maliciously by cops is tiny. There's plenty of film of people resisting/fighting police who escalate their situations to a horrible outcome though.
@@BIGxBOSSxx1 You don't. You don't even know if you're gonna wake up tomorrow, but you don't worry about that, do you? Why is the cops who always are the subject of your ire?
If you haven't seen "Devil in a Blue Dress" it is a fantastic period mystery thriller starring Denzel and Don Cheadle.
Jennifer Beals was so beautiful yet tragic
Such a great film and what an absolutely volcanic performance by Denzel!! Truly one of his iconic roles!! I am so happy you reacted to this Imon. I always adore your reactions. So sweet and lovely you are!! 🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️
Training Day inspired Shawn Ryan to write 7 seasons of The Shield, basically Vic Mackey is a taste of Alonzo , 89 hours of TV format. Basically that show was so underated, it made success to FX Network. ua-cam.com/video/BLHMwU_4sdo/v-deo.html
Its not in this reaction video but the line when Jake and Alonzo are in the car and Jake says "It can't be like this" is so heartbreaking. That everything you thought about helping people and making your community a better place is a lie and that realization makes you feel so small. As unrealistic as it is for Jake to remain an idealist when confronted with this knowledge of how narcotics officers operate, he knows he has to remain true to his morals and stand his ground against corruption (Alonzo).
I remember seeing this as a teenager and seeing the reality of where I grew up on screen and realizing how messed up of a cycle I was trapped in. This movie along with a gang of other things are what inspired me to go to college and live a different life. This Denzel performance was a 10/10 and I love revisiting this movie at different stages of life and further realizing the impact the message of this film really drove home
Movies are a great way to start a discussion and on practically any topic. Glad you're going to be doing more of them on the channel.
Ethan hawke has a line in the first scene of the movie “you should see those guys houses.” In reference to detectives, that perspective on his professional ambition combined with this loyalty and commitment to his family informs his later inner conflict with Alonzo and his various collisions with ethical practice and decision making. He knows they’re doing wrong but his ambition keeps him from waking away.
the first thing Alonzo asks on that first scene morning phone call was "you got a backup gun?".
it almosy sounds like he is looking out for the rookie, but its most obvious that he was asking for his own tactical awareness.
In the scene where Denzel killed Roger, the fact Denzel is in the dark but his eyes are showing is a cinematic view that Alonzo represents evil, while Jake is in the light shows that his character represents good, and it foreshadows the climax at the end of the movie, hence the monologue Alonzo tells Jake when he threatens him
The pigeons are like a secret alarm to let the that street know cops are coming.
“King Kong ain’t got shit on me!”
This was Denzel Washington first "bad guy" movie and he Won the Oscar for Best Actor for it.
Actually he was the bad guy in a movie called a soldiers story. Early 80'd
This was the first film I actually saw Denzel Washington protrays as the bad guy.
When he plays bad guys they ALWAYS have to have a comeuppance. Either in jail or dead. He doesn’t play evil and they get away with it.
@@paulhewes7333 Yes, and I heard that the director actually wanted Denzel's character to get away with it at the end but Denzel didn't want it to go that way.
Actually that's not true. The director wanted Denzel to just die simply from one bullet & Denzel felt he needed to be humiliated & suffer
Also there is a movie technically he sort of got away with being bad called Fallen
Imon, I’m Michael. Thanks for doing what you’re doing.
You are greatly appreciated… I am now subscribed.
Doing what? Hahaha tf
Heat, American History X, Casino, Goodfellas, The Shining, A Bronx Tale, Shawshank Redemption. All AMAZING movies. Take your pick....
Thank you for making this video.
Thank you for watching~!
GoodFellas is one of my favorites movies ever. Now im very excited to see that reaction.
My dad use to say that to me a lot when we would go to his job
He killed it in a American gangster to
Crazy what a bad guy Denzel is, but for most of the movie he makes you understand his reasons for doing the things he does.
Narcissists are notorious for being charming, an in turn very convincing. it's only superficial though. they the MOST elite finessers.
It's a shame you already knew he's corrupt from the start since that's the most interesting part of the movie imo. How Denzel's performance kept Alonzo perfectly on the line so you're not sure whether he's good or bad until the reveal.
You can tell he's corrupt in the first 30 seconds
@@English_MoFo? If you think undercover cops don't have to act like gangsters to do their job well I don't know what world you're living in. The fact that you need to tell a stranger something demonstrably wrong as if to teach me worries me. I hope there aren't many people like you...
That's not really the twist tho. It's about how far down he's fallen that's the real twist. He was a good cop at one point
@@SolidSnake240? Are we watching the same movie? Can you tell me one thing that proves without a doubt that Alonzo was a good cop instead of crooked from the start in this movie?
@@shinHis3 Denzel’s character sees himself in Ethan and sees how he was “innocent” before he got to his position
This movie was so good OMG love the video Imon Nation stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
When she said "why not the Shepard?"I was stuck for like 5 minutes like...damn....thats crazy
When?
The way both of their days ended hinged largely on how they'd treated the people they encountered throughout that day. For instance If jake doesn't rescue that girl earlier in the day then he probably doesn't walk away from that bathroom scene. And on the other side Lonzo's bad rep left him with absolutely nowhere to run when it all came crashing down
You should see End of Watch it shows another perspective in police life in LA.
The director Antwon Fuqua said yrs ago that Denzels character started out the same way as you said, wanting to make a difference. But pushing the line of the law further down, bending rules here and there lead to making his own rules. It eventually swallowed him up, til he became what he was supposed protect ppl from. That's why many things & advice he said to Jake had truth in it, he was Jake long time ago. Now he's one of the Wolves.
Denzel simply said his character " Alonzo had to die, the wages of sin is death". With the way he lived, no way he should live by going to prison. This was Denzel playing a true villain for the 1st time, he's so good, he actually made me hate a character he's playing.
Hell even if Alonzo did go to prison he wouldn’t have lasted long, he wronged and prolly set up so many people that somebody in there would’ve killed him so either way he had no way out but dearh
6:17 the irony of that statement
I love when imon dances this and on the boys she knows Bop when she hears it
Macy Gray, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, a plethora of musicians in this film.
40:28 your thinking of scar when you say mufasa
37:47 i believe you are correct, this is the king kong line movie.
The point of the movie that alot of people missed was that Alonzo actually originally was just like Jake, he was corrupted over time, but he did see himself In Jake, and he wanted him in his unit, however Jake's unwillingness to take the money, made Alonzo feel like he couldn't be trusted, so he set things in motion to kill him
Actually he been a pawn all along, he just gives him test to either make him part of the squad or just a scapegoat for his deeds
While you are right that gangs do start out as protectors of their neighborhood, history has shown that at some point early on in each gang's history the lightbulb goes on for someone at the top of the hierarchy and they say "cool, but we can probably make some money with this by (insert criminal enterprise here)."
Good reaction, you brought up a few things that I hadn't thought of in all my times seeing this movie.
Thanks for the reaction. Another great Denzel movie is Man On Fire
9:22 Uh what? Lmao
Edit: I guarantee you'd prefer living in a town controlled by Police than gangs, you have a confused perspective of gangs and what they do
Pretty sure you do too
It’s a miracle you heard any dialogue considering you talked more than all the words in the script put together.
What happened to the last kingdom reaction. It has been 2 weeks now with no video.
you're so pretty :) and great movie analysis as always, this movie has many layers to it, i had to watch it many times, and still mesmerizes me to this day
Those gang members are not there to protect their neighborhood lol. If they're protecting anything then it's their drug and blood money.
“They’re there to protect their neighborhood” prob the biggest BS I ever heard💀💀😂
Gangs were created for that. But obviously things have changed
This is a really weird coincidence because this afternoon was my first time seeing this film in it's entirety.
I really enjoyed your intro and reaction you seem like a genuine person all the best new sub here forsho 💯
have you watched the departed, if not then you should definitely watch it
I plan on doing a reaction to The Departed for sure!
The pigeons are raised to fly locally and eventually return back home immediately. Once the guys (dealers) on the ground see the flock flying around they are instantly alerted to an almost guaranteed police presence.
Old School War is Way Worster Then War Now
I haven't seen this movie in a long time but it was great seeing it again thru your perspective. It's amazing how much of Hoyt's life changed in one day and if not for that ONE choice he made to save that girl, his life would be over. You gave a great analysis of the movie and I think you broke down Denzel's character to a T! Denzel killed it. Can't wait to see what you watch next.
Even more interestingly, Alonzo spoke to the girl in the alley and knew which family she was connected with. He purposefully chose that house as it'd be an ironic punishment of Hoyt's naivety to have him killed by the family of the girl he saved. But that same naivety, as perceived by Alonzo, is also what saves Hoyt's life. Battle between two outlooks, good wins.
Are you going to resume The Last Kingdom? Please say you are, I love your reactions to TLK! Do you not like season 5?
There will be a hiatus on for TLK
Dang time flies. One day I'm here liking up your reaction to Negan, now we're here at one of my favorite films. Nice to see you're still at it! 😉
Fun Fact: The guy that plays smiley was Cliff Curtis. Known mostly as Travis.
He is actually a New Zealander.
It was a nice surprise seeing him here, as we had just recently watched the movie Once Were Warriors, and was blown away by the movie and his and the whole casts acting!
@@paulhewes7333 Yep. But he studies a good deal of who he's playing to where you almost wouldn't know. There was a scene he did in Columbiana. Let's just say he nailed it a little better than Lennie James.
@@ImonSnow i saw “ once were warriors” in an art theater in the 1990s and it still haunts me to this day. Temura Morrison as Jake was tremendous.
I clicked on this not seeing your name. I was like yoooo is that Imon lol
It's me!
Great reaction! Another awesome movie that is kind of similar to this that you need to check out is "Street Kings" with Keanu Reeves and Forrest Whitaker. One intense film!
As an ex-military police officer, I saw corruption all the time (We had a Lt. Col. that was raping his 12 year old and the military took jurisdiction, and force retired him. Full pension with no criminal charges). It's all about politics and once you have dirt on leadership, you're invincible. It's changed significantly since this movie but the stain of it is still around.
21 years ago I was in middle school when this came out.
If you want to watch more films with Denzel Washington in them I really recommend American Gangster
Fallen
At first I was like imon damn u missing classics however viewing things as an adult with fresh eyes can be seen as seeing it for the first time me watching this when I was 8 was not the same as me seeing it when I was 18 so I agree.
Cliff Curtis has played almost every ethnicity under the sun. He's a Maori but played a flawless cholo here
Was getting so mad when she thought he was smoking weed
If he didn't then walk away just smoke I know jakes wife doesn't mind and police will know
I love when your lightbulb came on at 32:43
The shepherd comment is definitely from your upbringing in the Bible. One correction, it's not Mufasa but Scar😉 Now you got to go watch Dave Chappelle's Training Day sketch with Wayne Brady!!!😂
22:42 I mean well ladies love Denzel. Especially ones who love facial hair on a man. The younger ladies see Denzel in a whole new light in this movie lol
Wow you ruined it with your edit
Interesting opinion you have about how the police are corrupt but sympathy for murderous gangs..
I dont know where u live bruh but gangs have not been about protecting no neighborhood since they were created, I take it you live in the suburbs but I would really appreciate if mfs stopped glorifying gang culture and poisoning the minds of these jits out here.
thats not true every where lol America is a big place a lot of immigrant gangs to this day were created to protect immigrants yeah true some can be brutal and some can even be racist "looking at you Hispanic gangs", and are into selling drugs but they are still about protecting the hood no matter what the media says about them.
That's that echo chamber they live in bruh...that's their neighborhood...
The fact you are reacting to moon knight brought me here
0:25 I've just recently seen The Usual Suspects, very good movie, I enjoyed the end. If you know, you know🙂
If you haven’t check out “A Bronx Tale”!
Very good screenplay. Narratively satisfying that the differences between our two leads which form the basis of the movie's conflict (Alonzo, perhaps once innocent like Hoyt, has been poisoned and corrupted by the system he works for - Hoyt on the other hand refuses to make the damning choices that would lead him down Alonzo's road) are ultimately what decide the movie's conclusion. Alonzo isn't just beaten because Hoyt can talk or fight his way out of the bathroom at the end or something, he's beaten because Hoyt saved a person earlier in the day (the only real good deed performed by either men during the movie).
And deeper than that, Alonzo and Hoyt didn't just randomly wind up at that house: Alonzo talked to the girl in the alley earlier in the movie and knew which family she was connected with. He purposefully tried to have Hoyt killed by the family of the girl he'd saved, because he needs to punish Hoyt's naivety and refusal to be corrupted. Their conflicting ideologies and outlooks are ultimately what are really in conflict, not the men themselves, and in the end good wins. Wish it were more like that in real life sometimes, but oh well - fantastic movie.
Does "good" really win? Alonzo was celebrated as a police officer at the end of the film.
@@themingler441That's true. But given that our protagonist was earlier that same night about to be executed in a bathtub and instead it was a corrupt cop who was killed - we'll call that a win. I have a feeling in the universe of Training Day you got to take the wins you can find.
Denzel Washington In Training Day Was Playing rafael perez The Cop Who Was Allegedly Involved In 2pac & Biggies Death!
You go Deep?? Lol
thats what she said hahaha
Fun Fact... Denzel Plays Malcolm X in a biopic... shot in the 90's
Plants with lights in them? Say no more .. i'm here for this new reaction phase.
Honestly you gotta re watch this several times you notice more and more each watch
40:04 "like Forrest Gump." 🤣
i haven't heard that comparison before
"When I was your age they would say we can become cops, or criminals. Today, what I'm saying to you is this: when you're facing a loaded gun, what's the difference?" - Frank Costello (Jack Nicholson), "The Departed"
Great reaction! Hope you do more of these!
These are the type of Imon_Snow "Reactions" that captured my interest originally!!! The one phrase stuck in my mind..."Michonne Baby Be Quiet". Proud of u homegirl!!! Work your shit out.
Wow thank you for this comment! You have been here for a while then haha
The last time I saw Ethan Hawke in any film was "Lord of War" and before that "Assault on Precinct 13".
Very strange. I was literally just thinking about this movie when I saw your thumbnail.
“They are there to protect their neighborhood” what a stupid and naive take from someone who obviously never grew up around gangs.
Love this! The Before Trilogy would be an amazing few reactions to do.
Imon is just so lovely. Huge heart
Wow there are certain great movies that most people don't react to and this is one of them. Awesome crime film and thanks for the content
Aye Imon,
I recognize you trying to better yourself. Its commendable, inspiring even.
Don't forget to close your eyes...
Go inside...
And just watch how your vessel...
moves, breaths, scrunches up its face and hold that perspective, a few minutes each day. It helps.
Also,
You'll find gems o' plenty in the inspirational comedy
I HEART HUCKABEES
Hey, Thank you :)
And hey I haven’t seen that movie so I’ll add it to the list!
