You gotta be who you are in this world !

Rating: 8/10 (28 December 2014)

Denzel Washington delivers a grand performance which has to be described as 'epic', in this vigilante thriller about a mysterious man who reveals a brutal and lethal side when faced with violent gangsters. The film purely as a film is not great but there is one thing that is undeniably the difference and that is the lead actor. Chloe Grace Moretz is good also and her on screen chemistry with Denzel is one of the highlights in the film. Many films owe their star actors much of the credit and this is one of those movies, which is fast paced and entertaining with an extra dimension. The ex-CIA assassin; Robert McCall works in a hardware store and is faced with decisions to make as to who he 'really' is. This insight into McCall makes this whole journey fascinating and the best part is that the audience don't know that much about McCall's past even by the end. This is a 'bad ass' movie, old fashioned and relentless, maybe we've seen it all before but not the way Denzel does it!
