Pros

Denzel Washington

Cons

the ending will upset you

NOV

2007

I cannot tell you much about this movie without giving out extensive movie plots and spoilers.. but I will tell you that this movie is excellent. The characters are extremely well written and the portrayals are NEAR FLAWLESS. What else could we expect from Denzel Washington? He lends style and class to every role.The end upset me greatly though.. here was a man who worked for Harlem and then... oops.. I almost gave up the ending.
