The new Dolby Atmos sound design is crisp, particularly in the numerous shootouts towards the movie’s end. Plenty of immersive sounds during the various city sequences pull you into the film. The same could be said of Training Day. While it's highly entertaining watching Denzel Washington atypically playing a murderous and diabolical sociopath, the movie would feel lopsided without Ethan Hawke's performance. In his role as the unsuspecting Jake Hoyt, the cop who is nominally drawn into his inaugural 'training day' on the streets, Hawke is our audience surrogate. Rating Certificate: R (for strong brutal violence, pervasive language, drug content and brief nudity) That was one of several scenes that the colorist felt showcased the capabilities of HDR and some of the complexity and sharpness of Fuqua and Fiore’s “spectacular photography,” something “that can be missed by looking at the film off a print.”

Here is a Washington character who knows he's bad and gleefully revels in the power that his position bestows upon him. On 4K Blu-ray, Training Day’s cityscapes pop. This new 2160p HDR10 transfer offers plenty of detail, excellent contrast, and all the trimmings of the high-end format. Purists may balk at the cooler color tones, but it serves the film’s narrative well. This is a dark and moody film — cold, even. The saturated colors make L.A. even more distinct. Washington won an Oscar for his performance. While he’s better in films like Malcolm X and Philadelphia , he makes for one hell of a movie villain. The actor’s atypical mannerisms — the flashy smile, the piercing eyes, the smooth delivery — are on display, albeit turned up a notch and twisted in a manner that makes him both magnetic and terrifying. He’s nothing short of amazing here.
