"Forgivness is between them and God, it's my job to arrange the meeting"....hardest bars ever spit 😂😂😂

What makes me tear up is when she wins her swimming race and runs over to him with a huge smile on her face and jumps into his arms and her little legs are dangling. That moment gets me every time. 🥹

I've seen this movie at least 30 times. And I STILL cry at the end. Oh - I'm a 64 year old retired Navy veteran

- Sister Anna (Pita’s swim meet) to Creasy:
“today, u r her father”

- Creasy under the bridge:
Fuentes: “a last wish, please, please. Please”
Creasy: “last wish? I wish … u had … more time”

- Old folks apt - “in the church, they say to forgive”
Creasy: “forgiveness is between them and God. It’s my job to arrange the meeting”

- Rayburn speaking to Miguel (AFI agent):
“A man can b an artist ….. in anything, food, whatever. It depends on how good, he is at it.
Creasy’s art is death. He’s about to paint his masterpiece”

Also when she asks him “and you love me too right?” Is the best type of acknowledgement I could ever hope for. Of course I love you. Nobody had to ask me to love you, I just do. Because it’s right

I think "Training Day" is Denzel's best movie, but "Man On Fire" will always be my favorite!

"I thought she was gonna be a lot harder om him" When Creasy told her he was an American, she was sold. While looking at his military background, she new he wouldn't "sell out" He's a soldier not a politician..

So in this movie Man on Fire, Dakota Fanning is only 10 years old, she was the older blonde CIA agent in Equalizer 3.

His best role, hands down, is “Malcolm X.” This was his 2nd collaboration with Tony Scott (he would collaborate with him again with “Deja Vu,” “the taking of Pelham 1,2,3,” and “unstoppable.” Their first film together was “crimson tide.”).

This young girl, Dakota Fanning, is the young agent he was working with in Equalizer 3.

@JavierGarcia-bd6kw 1 year ago

Watch the alternate ending it is so much more gratifying. He does exactly what he said he was going to do. Even using his own life to accomplish his task. But you have to remember the movie shows you that he was already dying. He held out just for Pita. Whether it was to bring down justice or it was to protect her. His life never mattered to him more than hers did.

He was robbed of an Oscar in this one. I cry when I watch it I'm not ashamed to admit it............. I didn't have a dad and this one gets me a lot at the end with how fatherly and protective he was

"He's about to paint his masterpiece.." ooof so cold!!

@dereckreinhart462 1 year ago

In my opinion this is a super underrated movie and is my personal favorite Denzel movie. So well directed and edited and all the actors do an amazing job in this film.
It’s insane to me this film doesn’t get more recognition and praise compared to other Denzel movies

@babbyreign 1 year ago

Malcom X was Denzel best role ever but yea this one up there too

When she handed him the dandelion, while they were at the piano teacher' s door, and you said that was so cute...I realized, "gkad you're savoring it. The cuteness is about to come to an ugly end."
