Let me start by saying, this 4K Ultra HD version of Training Day is a game-changer. The clarity and color grading make every scene pop, especially in those dark, gritty LA streets. Denzel Washington's performance as Alonzo Harris? Absolutely chilling. You forget it's Denzel—that’s how good he is.

The steelbook packaging is sleek and sturdy, perfect for collectors. But the real star here is the film itself. The tension builds from the first coffee shop scene and never lets up. Ethan Hawke’s rookie cop vs. Denzel’s corrupt veteran? Chess, not checkers—and you feel every move.

Watching it in 4K adds layers to Fuqua’s direction. The shadows in Alonzo’s world feel deeper, the neon lights more oppressive. And that iconic "King Kong ain’t got *nothing* on me" moment? Goosebumps.

Downsides? If you’re sensitive to heavy themes or violence, this isn’t a casual watch. Also, note: some UK buyers reported region-locking issues (double-check your player). But for fans? It’s a must-own. The included Blu-ray and digital copy are nice bonuses too.

Final verdict: A razor-sharp upgrade to a modern classic. Just be ready to need a breather afterward.
