In The Equalizer, Denzel Washington plays McCall, a man who believes he
has put his mysterious past behind him and dedicated himself to
beginning a new, quiet life. But when McCall meets Teri (Chloë Grace
Moretz), a young girl under the control of ultra-violent Russian
gangsters, he can't stand idly by - he has to help her. Armed with
hidden skills that allow him to serve vengeance against anyone who would
brutalize the helpless, McCall comes out of his self-imposed retirement
and finds his desire for justice reawakened. If someone has a problem,
if the odds are stacked against them, if they have nowhere else to turn,
McCall will help. He is The Equalizer.
Cliché after cliché, no humor, virtually no story, illogical, plot holes, action is somewhat enjoyable
To my shame i must admit i enjoyed some of the mindless action scenes but the biggest problem is that it is all to far fetched. Without any realistic basis it just looks stupid. Denzel isn't helping either. Don't get me wrong i like Denzel and credits to him for trying, but his (over) acting feels out of place. He is just trying to hard and way to serious in a movie you can't take serious.
User Reviews
Yet again a movie about a single (american) man that saves the day and kills all the (foreign) bad guys. OMG Hollywood this again. Who writes this crap. Seen it a million times before. Back in the day it was still cool but now just shameless.Cliché after cliché, no humor, virtually no story, illogical, plot holes, action is somewhat enjoyable
