Man on Fire pt 2?

Rating: 9/10 (27 September 2014)

I loved this movie - Denzel conveys so much power in a few seconds of silence he can't be matched by most actors with ten minutes of dialog. A worthy adaptation/update of the series as we watch the retired "operator" put his unique skillset to use to help people. I can see this turning into a franchise - Liam better look out :) One thing struck me (hence the title of the review) - it very much felt like McCall could be John Creasy redeemed and trying to lead a quiet life. Without spoilers let's just say the look and feel and one or two hints point you to the conclusion that just maaaaaaaybe Washington and Fuqua were looking for a way to get a MoF vibe going with a new direction
