Movie: Man on Fire

Date: 10/23/04
At home on DVD
Starring: Denzel Washington, Christopher Walken, Mickey Rourke, among others

Man on Fire was worth watching because of Denzel Washington. I will always take the time to watch one of his movies. The story was fine, but it got a little bit lengthy. I did not like the ending, not because it was sad or predictable, but because of the way that it was portrayed. I guess the director, Tony Scott, is notrious for "flash cuts" and superimposed images, and other tricks of the screen. In my opinion, these tecniques take away from the movie, and make it harder to watch. Christopher Walken and Denzel both play their characters awesome, as they always seem to do.
