of money looking either one of thempaid to build. With most cop films,
(07:16):
there is corruption either right in frontof our eyes or it is heavily
implied. What makes this film differentis it is not over the top.
It is painfully real and drives thisstory. Our next two clips are examples
of this. First, Alonso hasto meet a group of officers that call

him from the inside. So let'sgo down down to the station. You
(15:46):
talk to my guys stand and thenwe'll walk key through. What you gotta
say to the da guys. Okay. This film has many great performances and
(16:08):
cameos from the aforementioned Hawk, TomBarringer, Doctor Dre Macy, Gray,
Snoop Dogg, and Eva Mendez.But no mistake, the performance that is
not just the top in this film, but one of the greatest ever is
that of Washington. In our finalclip. The unraveling of Alonso is complete
(16:36):
when men that Alonso allows to illegallyoperate in a local neighborhood do not take
Jake out when he commands them too. He loses all control and gives a
speech that many, my self included, feel is one of the most memorable
in cinema history. Oh you mother, okay, all right, I'm putting
(17:03):
cases on all you. Huh.You think you can do this, Jane,
You think you can do this tome? Your mothers will be playing
basketball and Pelican Bay when I getfinished with you. Shoot program twenty three
hour Lockdown. I'm the man upin this. You'll never see the light
(17:29):
of dude, though you think youI'm the police. I rush you just
lift it. Yeah, that's wack. You better walk away. Gonna walk
away because I'm gonna burn this down. King Kong ain't got on me.
This film marked a major turning pointfor Washington. As I stated before,
(17:55):
it proved he could play the villainand do it well. It gave him
an added dynamic to his already aweinspiring range, So much so he has
went on to play other unscrupulous individualsin other films. While they are great
performances, they do not match theverocity and powerhouse performance he gives in this
(18:19):
film. This film was a hit. It was the second highest October opening
in cinema history, at twenty fourpoint two million its opening weekend. The
only reason it opened in October isfollowing the September eleven attacks, the film
was delayed by a month. Itfinished with one hundred and four point nine
(18:41):
million gross worldwide. It was nominatedfor two Academy Awards, Best Supporting Actor
for Hawk and Best Actor for DenzelWashington. Rightfully and Deservingly Washington one for
Best Actor. It has spawned asince canceled television series, and a prequel
(19:06):
of the film is currently in production. It is timeless and its realness,
rawness and unabashed power. I wouldrecommend this film to anyone, no matter
what films they like. With myhighest recommendation, I hope you will join
me next week when we will lookup to the sky and answer is it
(19:30):
a bird? Is it a playing? Well? Maybe, but one thing
is for sure. It is thefirst comic book film blockbuster. We will
look at Christopher Reeves in the nineteenseventy eight film Superman the movie for WMNH
and Matt Connerton unleashed. This hasbeen a classic film review with Derik Pilcher.

what you think are we gonna do? We're gonna roll up in a black
and white huh. Slap the cuffson him. You're under arrest. That's
(13:48):
a high roller. Dog take themoney. Already told you. I'm not
gonna take this. I'm not gonnatake that. Hey, don't just burn
it, Bob Cue and fish Fried. I don't give But the boys will
feel better their feelings. Jake,You're not making them feel like you're part
of the team. The team.You guys are insane. All right,
(14:11):
I'll go back to the valley.I'll cut parking tickets. You know he
can't be like this. It isthis way, man, I'm sorry I
expose you to it, but itis. It's ugly, but it's necessary.
I became a cop to put awaydrug dealers, the poisoners, the
criminals, not to be one soundsjust like me, and I know what
(14:35):
you're going through. I know whatyou're feeling. You're scared. I'm not
scared as you want to terrified.Anybody goes through that. The first time
I went through as it the sona. You can match what's in your head.
That's what's going on in the realworld. The better you're gonna feel
in this business, you're gonna I'ma little doun on you, queen.
(15:00):
Need to trust you and all thisis behind you. It's gonna be a
home on the world that opens upfor you. I walk a high and
pass sun, but I can giveme the keys to all the doors were
my guys are pretty good. Butthen I leaders, then clowns. You're
(15:20):
a leading. You want my job? You got it. You want to
lock up poisonous. This is thebest place to do it, but you
gotta just you don't take your time. You may detective and play the game.
You grow wise and then you canchange things. But you gotta change
him from the inside. So let'sgo down down to the station. You
(15:46):
talk to my guys stand and thenwe'll walk key through. What you gotta
say to the da guys. Okay. This film has many great performances and
(16:08):
cameos from the aforementioned Hawk, TomBarringer, Doctor Dre Macy, Gray,
Snoop Dogg, and Eva Mendez.But no mistake, the performance that is
not just the top in this film, but one of the greatest ever is
that of Washington. In our finalclip. The unraveling of Alonso is complete
(16:36):
when men that Alonso allows to illegallyoperate in a local neighborhood do not take
Jake out when he commands them too. He loses all control and gives a
speech that many, my self included, feel is one of the most memorable
in cinema history. Oh you mother, okay, all right, I'm putting
(17:03):
cases on all you. Huh.You think you can do this, Jane,
You think you can do this tome? Your mothers will be playing
basketball and Pelican Bay when I getfinished with you. Shoot program twenty three
hour Lockdown. I'm the man upin this. You'll never see the light
(17:29):
of dude, though you think youI'm the police. I rush you just
lift it. Yeah, that's wack. You better walk away. Gonna walk
away because I'm gonna burn this down. King Kong ain't got on me.
This film marked a major turning pointfor Washington. As I stated before,
(17:55):
it proved he could play the villainand do it well. It gave him
an added dynamic to his already aweinspiring range, So much so he has
went on to play other unscrupulous individualsin other films. While they are great
performances, they do not match theverocity and powerhouse performance he gives in this
(18:19):
film. This film was a hit. It was the second highest October opening
in cinema history, at twenty fourpoint two million its opening weekend. The
only reason it opened in October isfollowing the September eleven attacks, the film
was delayed by a month. Itfinished with one hundred and four point nine
(18:41):
million gross worldwide. It was nominatedfor two Academy Awards, Best Supporting Actor
for Hawk and Best Actor for DenzelWashington. Rightfully and Deservingly Washington one for
Best Actor. It has spawned asince canceled television series, and a prequel
(19:06):
of the film is currently in production. It is timeless and its realness,
rawness and unabashed power. I wouldrecommend this film to anyone, no matter
what films they like. With myhighest recommendation, I hope you will join
me next week when we will lookup to the sky and answer is it
(19:30):
a bird? Is it a playing? Well? Maybe, but one thing
is for sure. It is thefirst comic book film blockbuster. We will
look at Christopher Reeves in the nineteenseventy eight film Superman the movie for WMNH
and Matt Connerton unleashed. This hasbeen a classic film review with Derik Pilcher.
(20:00):
Guess who's banking Steve? He's stilldoing that time the show? Yeah,
shut me out, it's still trays. Ain't Jane through our phones?
