    All of his movies are amazing, my 2 personal favorites by him are John Q and The Hurricane. Both were amazing movies and he did terrific in them.

    Also, Denzel was good in the movies Crimson Tide, Antwan Fisher, and Man on Fire was great. There are many other good movies he was in such as the ones listed and many more. His new movie Deja Vu looks pretty good as well.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>anyone want to argue this?</div> What would be the point? It's just an opinion. I on the other hand think he's a great actor but I have my favorites who I like over him. Johnny Depp, Edward Norton and Benicio Del Toro. Depp is a great chameleon, never doing the same role twice, Norton and Del Toro are just a great presence on screen. Usually stealing the picture their in.

    "What would be the point? It's just an opinion."if that were the case, then no one would post here. we argue over who's the best player in the league, so why not argue over who the best actor alive is.

    I suggest anybody that is a fan of Denzel should see Glory. That might be my favorite performance of his of all time. He was just a supporting actor in it, but he gave an incredible performance. I've seen a ton of his movies though, and he really is a great actor. John Q and Inside Man are both two of my favorite movies ever, and I have never seen one movie of his I didn't like.

    Wow, I forgot about him acting in 'He Got Game' with Ray Allen. Great movie, as I'm sure you all know.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>if that were the case, then no one would post here. we argue over who's the best player in the league, so why not argue over who the best actor alive is.</div> Well, mainly because people have different preferences with movies. B-Movie fans probably think Bruce Campbell is the greatest actor alive. Like I prefer other actors towards Denzel, but that's not taking away from him as an actor. You can't gauge actors with stats imo. Especially awards wise. I guarantee Bobby aka Crash II, will be reaping up some awards this year, overlooking better selections as always.

    IMO, Leonardo Dicappio is. Hes talented, able to play various and distinctive roles, and is smart on what movies he wants to makeYou can make a case for Robert Deniro also. Its just my opinion. Dont wanna get into a arguement.

Training DayThe Manchurian Candidate'Inside ManThe Bone CollectorMan on FireOut of TimeSome other movies that are great that I didnt see.Philadelphia The Pelican BriefAntwone Fisher Malcolm XI think both Depp and Washington are great but I prefer to watch a Depp movie over a Washington movie. I think Norton is great and like how he carefully chooses his movies. doesn't do as many as everyone else. Fight Club is by far the most favourite movie I can think of. Here is someone that hasnt be added yet. Christian Bale. If you haven't seen a Bale movie yet, you have been missing some great ones. One of my favourite actors of the time. The MachinistBatman ReturnsAmerican PsychoRescue DawnThe New WorldI wish they would go back and shoot all Tom Cruise movies over again and cast Bale instead. Would make all those movies much better.

    Yall are picking great movies, not really great actors. Christian Bale is good, but he doesn't have a chance with Denzel, Leonardo and Deniro.
