gorillamansays...This looks like an appalling heap of shit that I want to watch anyway.
chingalerasays...Yeah, for that Chloe Grace Moretz fix ya dirty-old-man yas....
Looks like a re-hashed Man on Fire from the trailer-"Antoine Fuqua, meet Tony Scott."

HugeJerksays...Denzel is a terrible actor. He just shows up and speaks his lines like he's reading a book.
shangsays...They should have kept a British actor like the original series was old man with insane skills.
Michael Caine would have been perfect since he resembles the original and is British.
lucky760says...I had no idea this was based on existing work.

shangsays...Yes it was a weekly TV series in the 80s

ChaosEnginesays...Except he already did his old man right wing vigilante movie (great performance, awful, awful movie).

alien_conceptsays...Edward Woodward, the guy who did the original Wicker Man, also. Let's pray this isn't as bad as that remake.
*promote
siftbotsays...Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Saturday, July 26th, 2014 2:17pm PDT - promote requested by alien_concept.
newtboysays...My thoughts exactly.

antsays...*commercial
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Commercial) - requested by ant.
Sarzysays...MADNESS. Admittedly he tends to just coast by on his charm these days (which is abundant), but if you can watch something like Philadelphia or Training Day and say he's terrible in them, there is something wrong with the way you perceive the world.

HugeJerksays...He's got some charisma, but he's not a good actor. Lawyer Denzel, Angry Cop Denzel, Pilot Denzel, Blind Post-Apocalyptic Bible-Carrying Denzel, they're all the same mannerisms and emotions.

lucky760says...Don't be such a @HugeJerk.
Sarzysays...Well, sure, he doesn't have a ton of range, but he's a movie star. He doesn't need to have range, nor do we particularly require it of him. Pretty much every movie star in the history of cinema plays some variation on themselves in every role -- people like George Clooney, Will Smith, or Tom Cruise (or going further back, Cary Grant, Clark Gable, or John Wayne) rarely mix it up too much, because they are movie stars and their established persona is part of what makes them so bankable. That doesn't make them bad actors, it just makes them a specific type of actor.
