Super bloody, but still enjoyable

Rating: 7/10 (27 April 2015)

The Equalizer is a movie that I wanted to see because it was a movie that I wanted see because Denzel Washington was playing him and the director of Training Day, Antoine Fuqua, was directing it and the film was based on the 1980's television series of the same name.
The film follows Robert McCall and he is a retired black ops government operative who lives in Boston, Massachusetts and works at a Home Mart hardware store, where he befriends many of his co-workers and also tries to help a security guard trainee Ralphie pass his qualification exam. He has promised his deceased wife that he would leave his old life behind, but is compelled to act after his teenage friend Teri, whose real name is Alina, was seen being mistreated by her pimp, Slavi and this leads into him seeking on the Russian Mafia. He then identifies himself as "The Equalizer".
The film is a dream come true for me. When this came out, my mom got this movie for me on Bootleg, along with "Guardians of the Galaxy", while my sister, Da'Quantria, got me "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" and I liked both of those, but I also really like this film and it was so damn good.
The plot is really amazing and it does not take me that many times for me to understand and the script writer of this film, Richard Wenk, did a really great job and it was spectacular and amazing to see and hear the dialogue was really amazing and so damn spectacular.
The one major thing that bothers me and this is the reason why this movie appears on my Top 10 Overrated Movies list on IMDb on my profile is because some of the action scenes can get a lot bloody and violent in a few areas. I don't mind blood at all, but it's just that they use way too much blood in some of the action sequences in The Equalizer.
The performances in this film as phenomenal in this film. Academy Award winner Denzel Washington is known for his superbad villain role in the 2001 film, Training Day, which he won the Oscar for Best Actor for his portrayal and that film is just beautiful and amazing and it is really cool to see him as a good guy, fighting against the Russians once again, after what the Russians did to him at the end of Training Day.
Chloe Grace Moretz plays Arina / Teri and she does a great job after I watched her in "Carrie" and in "DARK SHADOWS", and she does two hell of a performances in those films and she's really nice here. Melissa Leo, despite my mixed feelings towards her in PRISONERS, I like her in this film. Her performance is incredible. Bill Pullman is in this film and does a really great job. Martin Csokas plays Teddy and he does a great job too, despite the amount of screen time that he has in the film, he does really great. The production values are amazing, especially the music and action sequences but like I said, the action sequences are way too bloody, gory and violent and I think it does not hurt my viewing experience. This is an R-rated film, so if you did not like blood and violence, don't watch it for all you sensitive kids, but for all you people who likes blood and violence in action movies or scary movies, or science-fiction or zombie movies, The Equalizer is definitely worth a watch.
I give this movie a 7 out of 10 stars and the film is just really amazing and I have no problem watching this again and again. The film is just really amazing and Denzel Washington's performance is the best of his long time career and I encourage you to watch the film. You might get something out of it.
