This movie is a criminally underrated masterpiece.

“Forgiveness is between them and God. It’s my job to arrange the meeting."-Denzel

“A man can be an artist... in anything, food, whatever. It depends on how good he is at it. Creasey's art is death. He's about to paint his masterpiece.” I love that speech.

Both Denzel Washington and Dakota Fanning are great throughout. Solid chemistry between the two.

Powerful movie. When Pita chooses to run back to the fallen Creasy, it gets me everytime.

My fav Denzel movie!!! My fav line: "Creasy's art is death. He's about to paint his masterpiece."

This is THE Denzel film. His most iconic role imo. This made him an action star. A really amazing acting phenom, action star. It bred this new class of action movie with acting heavy hitters.

Would recommend checking out 'Deja Vu' (2006) by the same director, also with Denzel. Ta. 🧡

This is one of my favorite Denzel Washington movies. It's great that after all this time he was able to reunite with Dakota Fanning in a different project. They're both so incredibly talented. I'm surprised Dakota Fanning hasn't won an Oscar.

After Top Gun (1986), the late Tony Scott wanted to adapt the A. J. Quinnell novel of Man on Fire. Instead it was made into a film with Scott Glenn as Creasy, co-starring Joe Pesci and with limited release for only 3 countries in 1987. T. Scott circled back around to the story, over a decade later. If it was going to be remade, it would be timely to the kidnappings occurring in Italy. This would be Denzel and Tony's second film together. Also the first real Denzel flick as an avenging angel. When he gets these guys for what they did, no mercy whatsoever. It makes you appreciate DW even more in The Book of Eli and the Equalizer trilogy. All the Tony Scott signatures. Highly visual with a total intensity. Close-ups, background, with or without movement. The lighting does make it look like an much older film. Denzel & Dakota are wonderful in their portrayals and the onscreen relationship is touching as it should be. The supporting cast is good too. Other players in their roles don't chew up as much as the primary one, but that's ok. Creasy survived in the 1987 version. Having him perish as an selfless act for the 2004 version was just as gratifying.

When vigilante justice is exactly what's best for the situation and it's so satisfying

When this movie came out, it really set the bar for movies as a whole and definitely cemented Denzel as one of the best actors in the business in my eyes

The fact that Denzel Washington can play an angel a cop a CIA agent and an assassin with the same intensity and you do not confuse him with any other characters that he's played is a testament to not only his range but his ability as an actor to draw you into the movie without falling into the trap that some actors do oh hey that's so and so regardless of what they play that's so and so when Denzel plays a character he is the character he is not Denzel Washington he is whatever he wants to be at that moment the dude is truly a remarkable chameleon

Wow! What a film….i know that Denzel won an Oscar for Training Day, but his performance in this movie is my absolute favorite!!

No matter how many times I watch this movie, I still enjoy the hell out of it.

You might want to check out "Unstoppable", with Denzel Washington, and also directed by Tony Scott. The story is about a runaway train. I have seen Man on Fire many times and have cried at the end. Peace, Bill.

"Peeta Ramoz is just a number for you, another one taken, She showed him that it was Ok to life again. And they're gonna regret the day they touched her. A man can be 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."

The critics were so incredibly wrong about this movie where it got mostly negative reviews due to the violence. It would be received much better today.

Crimson Tide is another really good Tony Scott and Denzel pairing!
