Reply to comment by inmyelement87 in Which actor or actress could play any (or almost any) role in any movie? by h2oskid3

I thought the knock on Denzel was that he always played the same person which was himself?

I dunno, maybe that’s valid and maybe the movies are so different. But in Crimson Tide he did a good job of playing a well educated Junior Navy Officer. It’s a big change from Training Day where he’s rough around the edges, using drugs and only too willing to kill.

The Denzel stern closed lip angry speech is ubiquitous across his films lol not a bad thing, but I agree, he is usually just himself

He does. It's Black Man Talking Loudly(TM). Sam Jackson also uses that trademark.
