Movies Worth Watching: Man On Fire
Now this is a great movie. Released in 2004, it’s perhaps my favourite Denzel Washington movie (Glory is right up there with it). Great action, believable acting, and a storyline that centres on the very un-Hollywood concept of sacrifice. Well worth watching!

And it’s definitely one of the better looking movies available on Blu-Ray.

You got that right. Your just mentioning it brings back how long it sticks with me days after I watch it, which I do from time to time. It’s intense, so I save it, but yeah, I savor it. A tough-take subject that allows for just how excellent actors are both Washington and Walken.

Word-Smith,
Well said! It’s a very intense movie. I’m a big believer in the concept of justice, and have always been a sucker for any movie that has justice being being handed out.

idawgik,
I don’t yet have a Blu-ray player (I backed HD-DVD, though only in a small way), but it might be one of those movies that I re-purchase.
