Denzel Washington is a badass. Without question. Whenever he plays a "bad guy", I'm always still rooting for him! I don't know what it is about him, but I just love me some Denzel.
Now, don't get me wrong, I also LOVE me some Ryan Reynolds and he did a pretty good job in this movie, but it's very difficult to hold your own against THE Denzel Washington. All in all though, it was a really good and SUPER intense movie!
One thing I did learn from this movie is that, if I ever decide to go into acting, my dream role would be "strip club mercenary". True story.
