Denzel is actually one of my favorite actors. I'm hard pressed to think of a movie he's in that isn't good (for now). But you're right, he doesn't seem good at anything that isn't "American black guy". He was good in Glory, but that was just him putting on another American black guy affectation, with a 'yessuh massah' twang. He's terribly miscast for portraying am ancient Roman, even if he's supposed to be Numidean or something (which probably didn't look like dark sub sarahans in real life btw).
I'm genuinely curious why he took this role. He seemed a lot more shrewd in his choices in the past. I'm wondering if he has a new, and shittier, agent
