The Equalizer

The Equalizer
Robert McCall is a former special service commando who faked his own death in hopes of living out a quiet life. Instead, he comes out of his self-imposed retirement to save a young girl, and finds his desire for justice reawakened after coming face-to-face with members of a brutal Russian gang. McCall becomes the go-to man when the helpless require the kind of vengeance they would never find without his skills.

Solid Denzel action flick with a pretty bland story. Once Denzel actually starts kicking ass, it’s definitely a fun watch. I was late to the party on both is this and the John Wick franchises until earlier this year. Had I seen this before John Wick, I can imagine I might have rated this higher as a pure action flick. The action kind of pales in comparison to John Wick, though. Still, there’s not many leading men you can put above Denzel.
