Denzel Washington, a two-time Oscar winner (for Training Day and Fame), is considered one of the greatest American comedians. The New York native returns to the movies with Equalizer 3, the latest installment in the action trilogy that began in 2014.
If the artist has played in many masterpieces of the cinema, from Malcolm X to Fame through Philadelphia, Training Day or Flight, he has also participated in less brilliant works, like all actors. With The Equalizer 3 hitting theaters, we asked ourselves the following question: What is the worst Denzel Washington movie according to your audience ratings?
This work, well buried in the filmography of the actor, should go back 34 years. In 1989, Denzel starred in the detective film The Mighty Quinn, directed by Carl Schenkel. With a rating of 1.8 out of 5 stars according to AlloCiné viewers, this feature film is the worst of the artist’s career.
The actor plays police chief Xavier Quinn. The latter investigates the gruesome murder of Donald Pater, one of the richest inhabitants of the Caribbean islands. He was found beheaded in his hot tub. Quinn finds herself in a dilemma when a childhood friend becomes involved in this criminal case.
According to sly-stallone88, The Mighty Quinn is “Boring and without much interest except to see Denzel Washington make his film debut.”
“Great scenes for a lackluster and boring thriller, too bad because it was enough to make a good movie”Amchi thinks.
“The police investigation isn’t worth much, but Denzel Washington and Paradise Island, where the film is set, make The Mighty Quinn entertaining.Ted notes.
It is clear that the powerful Queen is worth only the charismatic presence of Denzel Washington, whose career took off a year later for the Oscar for the best supporting role for the film Glory.
Anyway, according to your ratings, the best Denzel Washington movie is not Malcolm X (4 out of 5), Training Day (3.9 out of 5) or American Gangster (4.1 out of 5)! This is The Great Debaters, a biopic directed and performed by Denzel in 2007! leads Philadelphia by 4.3 points out of 5.
