"JOHN Q" ~ Movie

[MacWQ33]

Wow.

Just saw it for the first time. Possibly the most powerful, emotional movie I've ever seen. Denzel is soo fucking good at what he does...unbelievable. Good acting all around. Why did he win an Oscar for Training Day (not saying he shouldn't have)..and not for this performance?

This flick is real. No other way to put it. Break it down any way you want...but that shit hit hard.

Let's just say I'm glad I watched it alone...and not in the theatre..and not with a girl LOL.

:clap:

I completely agree, this is a hugely underrated movie. I'd put John Q on my list of... oh i dont know... top 40 movies of all time.

lemme guess, you watched it on TBS lol

I just watched it too, it is one of my favourite movies, cause it is about real shit and problems you have in america............But it probably gave some people some ideas lol

If you've only seen it on TBS it doesn't count as having seen it. That is just my opinion though. They just do so much editing and censoring that the director's original vision is lost.

The movie is a throw away to me. Not good, could be worse. Pretty much just a pay check for Mr. Washington, who truly is a dynamite actor though.

^^Ya TBS butchers the good movies, and they censor the most softest of words............

[MacWQ33]

It does count...it was the whole movie. It's only PG-13..and the movie ran from 10:10am to 12:50. It's just under 2 hours (116 minutes) so with commericals...that figures out about right. I'm gonna watch it again soon though..I'm pretty sure my friend has it. And that was one of his most dynamite performances...easily. And I've seen most of his flicks. I honestly don't think you saw it lol. He brought so much fucking emotion.

thats the one about his son and the heart surgery?
thats great..training days great..manchurian candidate is pretty good, i own it but i dont watch it much

[spliffstar22]

Training days probably my favourite denzel movie, he's a badass in that one lol

[MacWQ33]

KING KONG...AIN'T GOT SHIT...ON ME! He was fucking bad-ass in that. He's never the 'bad guy'..but he played that perfectly.

I seen that movie a long time ago. That movie was sad. Maybe I'll feel different if I ever have a child but I can't see my self willing to give my own heart so some one else can live lol!
