Closely tied with Alonzo Harris for number 1

Not too many movies where I felt like:to:but homie did his thing in this

Especially that scene when his wife visits him in jail.


Man literally is the best actor.

Great, great performance. He's fine in Flight, but that's Denzel on autopilot.

Don't know about top 3 but he performed his ass of in the movie. This movie is slept on but Denzel should have won some kind of award for his role.

:why: full of lies? School me brehs. I never did the research :manny:

Well...there's a number of people who believe Ruben was actually guilty :mjpls:

Carter was actually convicted of three muggings and served four years in prison prior to his murder trial
Carter and Lisa Peters eventually married and later divorced
In reality, there was no Det. Della Pesca
Carter did not give a speech in the courtroom when his conviction was overturned and Lesra was not in attendance
Carter was actually released from prison for 4 years between his two trial convictions
Carter was dishonorably discharged from the military after four court-martials (after just 21 months' service)
There actually was no evidence found that proved Carter's innocence. The reason his conviction was overturned was because the prosecution mishandled much of the evidence it had that Carter did commit the murders. When all the evidence from the real case is looked at, it seems more than likely that Carter was guilty of the murders, but got off on a technicality during his second trial.

and that fight at the beginning he tried to make out to be some sort of "robbery" was complete Bullshyte, Carter lost that fight clearly

denzel is up there with the best of em .. one of my fav actors

and john q aint getting no love in this thread?????

Now John Q to me, is the absolute EPITOME of an Actor single-handedly carrying a movie to greatness. That flick had Lifetime movie of the week written all over it but Denzel made me FEEL for that character. I didn't even recognize it as a "Denzel Washington" movie after awhile because he really became that desperate but determined father. The scene when he's saying goodbye to his son is as emotionally moving as it gets.

Ladies and gentlemen, let it be known that this man here does not tell a lie.

Honorable mentions to The Manchurian Candidate... his transformation of from a normal stable person to mentally disturbed was the best thing about the movie. I'd throw Glory in there as well.
