The 7 Greatest Denzel Washington Cop Flicks, Ranked

King Kong ain’t got sh!t on this list!

7. Déjà Vu

Bending the rules of time while reliving events over and over as the threat of a crisis looms — sounds a lot like quarantining. Co-star Paula Patton would make sheltering in place a tad bit sweeter, though.

6. Fallen

From detective to ghostbuster, our favorite cop complex meets his match when he goes against a supernatural foe that couldn’t give a damn about its Miranda rights.

5. The Mighty Quinn

This fun and action-packed flick set in Jamaica marks Denzel’s first major role as five-O — and his last time butchering patois like it’s curry goat.

4. Ricochet

This 1991 film tests the limits of the twisted revenge thriller: Denzel is deceived, entrapped, kidnapped, drugged, raped, and infected with an STD for good measure. But this blue life is all that matters in the end.

3. Out of Time

A love triangle in which Eva Mendes kills Sanaa Lathan to save a duped Denzel’s ass? We’ll be on time for that.

2. Inside Man

A legendary director (Spike Lee) and a generational leading man reunite 14 years after Malcolm X to test their magic making a cinematic bank heist (orchestrated by Clive Owen). This one is on the money.

1. Training Day

We’re just gonna leave this here.
