You gotta be who are in this world, no matter what, even if that means you're a one man killing machine. The Equalizer was absolutely fantastic boys and girls! Seriously, if you find yourself sitting there wondering what to do while twiddling your thumbs, then get in the theater and see this before it leaves the rotation. This is a top notch movie!
The Equalizer, starring Denzel Washington who plays Robert McCall, is a film about a simple man with a mysterious past. Robert is a simple and down to earth kind of guy. He works at the local hardware store and if you were to ask around, everyone seems to have a good opinion of the guy. The regular everyday guy or so you think.
Robert frequents a local dinner where he befriends a young woman who is a hired escort. Over time she becomes fed up with the life style and begins defying her boss, Slavi. Slavi doesn't like this one bit and beats up this girl as an example for his other escorts. This sends our hero into action as he kills Slavi and his goons. By doing so Robert unknowingly steps into a mess much, much bigger than he thought as the men he killed were affiliated with the Russian Mafia. Robert soon finds himself as the target of a Russian hit man as they battle it out in a game of whit and skill.
This is by far my favorite movie i have seen this year so far. I fell in love with the characters, it has a solid story line, and awesome action. This film is most definitely a must see. I found it most interesting the ways in which Robert took out his enemies, often in an unconventional way. Most heroes in action films take up a gun and go in guns blazing but not Robert. The majority of his fighting is hand to hand combat with a healthy dose of lethal traps.
Honestly this movie surprised me. I was expecting it to be just like all the other action movies, oh how i was wrong. The next chance you get make sure you see this, you wont be disappointed.
Verdict:10
