Film making

When it comes to movies, one of my favorite actors working today is without a doubt Denzel Washington. Everything about the guy is likable, and with his high level of talent, it comes as no surprise that over the past two decades, he has become of the greatest actors working in Hollywood.

While there will certainly be more great Denzel Washington movies for years to come, this article will focus on my favorite films starring him up to this point in time.

I will begin with the role that finally nabbed Mr. Washington the Oscar he deserved. In the Antoine Fuqua directed film Training Day, Denzel plays the corrupt cop Detective Alonzo Harris, who makes for quite the entertaining villain.

Another great Denzel Washington film is the Spike Lee directed drama He Got Game. This movie also stars the great Ray Allen as Jesus Shuttlesworth, who also happens to be a great basketball player. If you are a fan of Spike Lee or basketball films (or both), you have to see He Got Game.

If you have never seen 1995′s Crimson Tide, then you are missing out big time. This movie stars Denzel Washington, Gene Hackman, James Gandolfini and Viggo Mortenson amongst others in a thriller based around a nuclear submarine.

Another fantastic film to check out that stars Denzel Washington is the Spike Lee hit, Inside Man. I don’t want to spoil the details of this film, but it is the highest grossing Spike Lee film of all time and revolves around a bank heist, also starring Clive Owen.

I would be remiss to make a list of Denzel films without mentioning one of his most memorable roles, none other than coach Herman Boone in the Disney football film Remember The Titans.

One other movie that should certainly be mentioned is the Preachers Wife. I’m actually kidding, this is one on the list you can skip.
