Dakota Fanning was one of the best child actors ever.

Yes indeed!

And she still is, because she's a vampire. While a lookalike pretends to be her all grown up.

I loved it when Christopher Walken told that Mexican cop that "Creasy is now going to paint his masterpiece" And Mark Anthony having his own daughter kidnapped. What a worm.

[@LizardBrainMinerals]

The bullet he loads into the gun for Samuel is the same one that misfired when he tried to commit suicide at the start of the movie. That is the “truth” he was referring to. It wasn’t time for Creasy to die but it was time for Samuel.

[@potterj09]

I know a young guy who pulled the trigger on himself once & it did not go off. Turns out due to drinking so much his pistol was not kept functional & the bullet itself was fine. Either way it scared the shit out of him & he changed a few things. I personally lost my shit as a friend when he told me & shamed him about his family and more. Suicide is never the way, even if you have no family or friends. I've been in dark places & used to easily drink a bottle of Jack each night just like Creasy (p[lease keep all guns in a locked safe) and still work 5 days a week. Shit life to live. I'll also say you can't just change it by thought. It takes a lot of courage and support. Anyone reading this feel free to message me. I'm 40yrs old & failing the first time is common. Don't feel like a failure if you do. I still struggle.

An unusually good film of its kind; all the Homies had been deeply, heartily moved by that dramatic, tear-jerking final scene.

Actually in the other alternative ending, he did plant the bomb inside him and he detonated it while talking directly to Daniel Sanchez in his house. But Tony didn't feel the ending was smooth enough to cool the audience down so he chose the ending where Creasy dies slowly in the car.

[@Gaius__]

Yeah, same here. I usually don't like the Ex-Elite-Soldier-Takes-Revenge movies, because most of them are pretty crappy, with too much plot armour and ridiculous capabilities of the protagonist (e.g. The Equalizer, and the incredibly stupid John Wick movies). But this one was realistic, showing nothing a dedicated soldier couldn't do in real life.

[@ninjunc]

This was a masterclass in how to get the audience emotionally involved in the story. Denzel and Dakota are pure genius.

[@msilverthorpe]

The original Man on Fire took place in Italy, and was based on a book. It starred Scott Glenn. This remake was moved to Mexico and was inspired by the real life kidnapping gang led by the Arizmendi brothers Daniel and Aurelio (same first names as in the movie). They were known as the "Ear Loppers" because they would cut off the ears of their victims and send the ears to the victims' families.

[@kingcecil7126]

@MufarosButifulDawtrs Never heard that said before. People talk as if black people are a monolith and are the same east, west, north etc. Im from Caribbean parentage and my experiences are different to yours as they are different to a black person in Brazil or Africa etc. So yeah might be common in the black community where your from, but not common in the black community 🤷‍♂🤷‍♂

[@ronhunte9551]

@MufarosButifulDawtrs it's not a argument, it's an observation, so forget the 'Grow up' line. When you say black community what do you mean? The community you grew up in? Common amongst blacks throughout the US? Common with blacks throughout the world? A lot of black people throughout this entire planet, so what community do you refer too?

[@h.c4898]

Creasy was badly hurt. He knew he was not gonna make it. He distracted them so that Peta and her mom could escape safely. Denzel Washington and the director Tony Scott worked together for a second time in "Deja vu" (2006). I recommend the movie, it's really good. It has the same feel as this movie. If you've never watched "Training Day" that's probably Denzel Washington's best acting performance. I recommend that one too.

[@StevesFunhouse]

Yeah, I've been asking them to do this one for a while, and I agree with everything you said in your post. I also loved Deja Vu.

"Do you have a wife Creasy? Do you know how hard it is to tell your family the truth"? "No you have a wife you tell me the truth". Some of my favorite dialogues in the movie

Tony Scott, the director of this film, is Ridley Scott's brother. He has under his belt apart from Man In Fire other classics as Top Gun, Beverly Hills Cop II, Days of Thunder, The Last Boy Scout, Crimson Tide, Enemy of the State, etc, all of them casted with high profile actors.

[@TalkingHands308]

@@lucianotecuanapa9853 I think part of the reason why they decided to go with this ending is because you don't know if blowing up Daniel's house would result in the deaths of any innocents like children or the housekeeper and things like that. Plus this ending was more poetic.

Hey knew that he had give his Life to save her’s and his Soul...He was given the chance of Redemption for his dark past. Early on he asked his friend..“Will God ever Forgive us for what we have done?..” So then after him failing to end his Pain and Life with a bullet that doesn’t go off. And the explanation for that is his friend saying that “sometimes it will tell the truth”..which is that he can’t go to Hell from suicide because he already is in a living Hell. He is the Man on Fire because he’s covered and consumed by the flames of rage and anger, which were given to him from the Evil’s and Wickedness of those in charge, making him an artist of Death. But then the darkness that casted over his Soul was brightened by the innocents of the child. Giving him hope for a new purpose in life....but the “Truth” purpose was to Sacrifice his life to finally be allowed peacefully into Thy Loving Kingdom of Heaven..

That is the flip side. People normally talk about how she is very kind, open heart, cries a lot, expressive, and compassionate. Then comes the harsh, cruel punishment to off-set that (as it's relative to who we are talking about). She loves the young girl, but hates the bad guys. It's interesting for me to watch, from a kind of social experiment standpoint, to see their reactions, as they tend to be more dual-natured in this way compared to male reactors. For example, they all cried early on and agreed that kidnapping was wrong, and cared about the young and good guy, etc., but then they all agreed that torture was moral/correct, which is very interesting. This, strangely, goes far beyond how a male would react. For example, the woman on the far end was happy about the torture and said, 'nice' (around 27:53). Never seen a man ever say something like that to any movie, ever. Though these are made more for men, and is a clear kind of extreme justice story, it's very interesting how men and women tend to have different views of such things, and different ethics in this regard (where men tend to want justice, and women want revenge).

Remember at the beginning of the movie, when Creasy asked his friend Rayburn: "Do you think God'll forgive us for what we've done?" Later he tells Sister Anna: "I am the sheep that got lost, Madre." Creasy is laden with the sins he's committed. The finale is his atonement. ... Folks have been suggesting their favorite Denzel movies. I'll be contrary and suggest one I haven't seen here yet: Unstoppable. Based on a true story. Great film, doesn't get much attention.

[@sableghost]

Good suggestion. I really liked Unstoppable.

[@xexorweglin]

His death was important for two reasons. For himself, the reason you've described is exactly why. His own death would atone for the sins of his past. His death was also important for Pita, b/c it showed her how a father (or any parent) *should* be: willing to sacrifice everything for their children. Sacrificing your very life (whether it means giving up all of your own desires or it means dying) for someone else is one of the greatest expressions of love we can give.

[@deanroddey2881]

This is a surprisingly good film. I saw it back in the video store days on VHS, or maybe it was a DVD by then, I'm not sure. I just randomly picked it up, assuming it was going to be a 'blowed up real good' type "mind out of gear movie", but by the end I was toast.

[@BPhillips2000]

Two of the best threats I've ever heard on-screen are in this movie: - "You move... you make one sound... I'll snatch the life right outta you, understand?" - "I'm gonna take your family apart, piece by piece! You understand me? Piece by piece!"

[@steenbronkegmail1]

Writer Brian Helgeland first saw the original Man on Fire (1987) when he was renting videos in the late '80s. He walked in to the video store where Quentin Tarantino was working and asked what was good. Tarantino recommended Man on Fire (1987). Most of the scenes between Denzel Washington and Christopher Walken were completely improvised. Radha Mitchell was intimidated when she first met Dakota Fanning. "I want to meet her when she's 25. I think she's going to knock everybody out." Denzel Washington was so impressed with Dakota Fanning's acting that he'd watch her and forget he was in the scene. The kitchen scene between Creasy and Pita, where she asked him about concubines, was mostly ad-libbed. It started when they "accused" each other of smiling. Dakota Fanning took piano, swimming, and Spanish lessons for her role. Dakota Fanning had a "stunt-belcher" because she couldn't do it. Dakota Fanning wrote everything in the diary herself. Dakota Fanning's first day of shooting was for the scene where Creasy takes Pita to school for the first day. The kidnappers are modeled after the infamous Arizmendi gang, who made $300 million in ransom in six years.

[@kevinhaynes9091]

Great reaction guys. It's an amazing film, difficult to watch in places, but well worth it. "Creasey's art is death. He's about to paint his masterpiece" is one of the best lines in movie history. Another great line, often attributed to Confucius... “Seek revenge and you should dig two graves, one for yourself”. The script writers were wise enough, and brave enough, to understand that Creasey had to die for his art...

So, when you said near the end, that Creasy must have a bomb on him or something - well, in the alternative ending, you are right.

Creasy had one of those, and in the alt ending, he doesn't die in the car, he makes it to the Voice's house. He sits down with him - still badly injured - and just as the Voice goes to shoot him, Creasy's watch reaches 0. Then booooommm!!!

At 33:28, "what weapon is this?" It's an RPG-7 (RPG stands for "Ruchnoy Protivotankoviy Granatomyot" "hand-held anti-tank grenade launcher") developed in the Soviet Union in the 1950s. It's a rocket propelled grenade which can be anti-tank or high explosive against infantry. RPGs are used around the world and pretty common, since the Soviets and later Russia, sold them to a ton of countries and supplied them to many guerilla movements.

Love this review! Excellent choice, Denzel is that dude! Man on Fire can look Vastly different if you look at deleted or alternate scenes. They have a romance subplot between Lisa and Creazy and the ending that you guys were hoping for lol

[@ianjardine7324]

I'm glad they went the way they did cramming INA romance and neat tyed up with a bow ending would have made this just another movie to be forgotten. The absolute and pure love between Creasy and pita gave the movie all the emotional depth it needed without any distractions. Him killing himself would have destroyed his redemption arc because it would have been a mortal sin. It was a movie about love justice and redemption not hate and indiscriminate violence.

"I am Sam" is really good Dakota Fanning film where she plays a very very adorable girl and a great kidnapping movie is "Taken" with Liam Neeson.

Many people miss that the container Pita gave Creasy which held the St Jude medallion, was a bear: "Creasy Bear".

I first watched this movie because my mom told to me Marc Anthony was acting in it (Pita's father). Because he's a salsa singer of which we are fan (and also Jennifer's Lopez ex, father of her child). I started watching and thought : "Wait, what ? Denzel Washington is in it too ? You had to start there !" One of my favorite movies with Fight Club. And it's still a good movie with Marc Anthony for my mom 😅

I have this movie on DVD.. it's been a pleasure watching it with you all. Great reactions. Keep up the good work. I recently subscribed and look forward to the next movie experience

[@Masky5150]

Such a great movie! I highly recommend two other Denzel Washington films, Training Day, and Out of Time!

[@jamiesucie2685]

Excellent movie to react to. Some of Denzel’s finest work

What is so sweet is at the end when you guys were 😥 sad your dog knew how sad you all were.

[@cesarh.7521]

No way! We were watching this during lunch today and thought, "Ah, man, this movie will destroy the Homies." I get home, open my KZbin and BAM! Ask and you shall receive. So ready for this. Greetings from Texas!

Law abiding citizen best revenge film out

[@Fantasiaaaaaaaaa_]

Dakota screaming after him broke my heart....One of their best movies

[@gustavovm491]

Creasy was not recovered from the kidnapping gunfire when he started his revenge as seen on the scenes where he goes in the pool and blood gushes out of his wounds. He was nearly dead by the time of the interchange and chose to die in peace knowing that Pita was safe. I believe there is an alternate ending of him hiding a bomb in his body like he did with the corrupt chief and then blows up when arriving at the Voice's hideout.

Hi Homies, what a wonderful reaction. I love this movie but I want you to know this is a true story. John Creasy saved Lupita Ramos from a kidnaping mafia in Mexico at the cost of his own life. He helped to bring down the ring and saved countless of future victims. Much love and keep on keepin on J.

[@chiefpayne568]

It was a great movie. Most didn’t realize that Creasy was dying and forced himself to stay alive first to avenge her, then to save her.

[@JMac7395]

FUN FACT: there is an alternate ending of Creasy being taken to The Voice's house were he blows himself up. It's not a tearjerrker but still a good ending

[@jewmaxin1984]

Denzel deserved an Oscar, as well many of the cast and production crew. One of few movies that sticks with me still. A story of redemption. Authentico. Sometimes in life some can't or wont see or recapture value of true self until it's put us against a wall. He could have been content with walking out after the situation, but more important he rediscovered that integrity, purpose and justice is worth than anything. Pita reminded Creasy of his value, sorta was his guardian angel. Then he became hers.

Tony Scott is a very underrated Director, I think that the vast majority of his movies are hidden gems. Its a shame that he always has been under his big brother's shadow Ridley, I recommend anyone who has enjoy this movie to take a look to the rest of Tony Scott filmography.

[@GK-yi4xv]

He jumped off a bridge a few years ago. He was about to film the sequel to Top Gun (it got postponed), and also a re-make of The Warriors (cancelled, as far as I know).

[@Serch-qu9sg]

@@GK-yi4xv Its a shame he still had lot of movies to directed
