The Equalizer (2014)
7/10
Above average action flick saved by Denzel Washington's great performance
2 July 2022
What holds this film back the most is it doesn't really do much to separate from all the other action flicks of a man taking the law in his own hands. The films plot isn't to bad its pretty simple and doesn't go anyway you wouldn't expect. The action scenes are solid bloody, gorey, and enjoyable to watch.

But what I would usually critique as being slightly above average goes above average thanks to Denzel Washington's great performance. It's no Man on Fire but it's satisfactory nonetheless.

It's a little to long considering the content of the film but it remains an enjoyable film, not great but not terrible.

IMDb: 7/10 Letterboxd: 3/5
