Denzel is the man

Rating: 8/10 (4 October 2014)

Any movie with Denzel Washington as the main actor I'm all in. My expectations are usually quite high as well because of him. Once again, he doesn't disappoint. Maybe I'm biased because I've read about how this is too slow for some people and while that might be true, as long as Denzel is on the screen, I'm hooked.
It's not full of action like I mentioned before but when there is action, its very entertaining. It's a smart character that has a routine every day and throughout the movie you learn more about his back story and why he is the way that he is. It's a simple plot really as a young girl he becomes accustomed to gets beaten up pretty bad. He decides to make the people pay. Only problem is its the Russian mafia.
The final action scene in a very large hardware store is fantastic and clever. It's about 20 minutes long and the kills are brilliant and original. There is one last shot that is a bit cliché but I'm OK with that. I had high expectation and I liked it enough to give it a solid 8/10.
