Rating: 7/10 (1 March 2015)

+ Denzel Washington : Amazing - Editing could have been better Denzel Washington has created a strong reputation of himself as a hard- hitting performer with powerful dialogues coupled with stylish-action stunts. The Equalizer might be similar to what you have seen before on the silver screen but it the strong charisma of Denzel which makes the film simply superb.
Robert is an ex-army man leading a simple and quiet life until one evening his life changes when tries to do the right thing by saving an unknown person's life.Based on TV series,
The Equalizer is a simple story told with fascinating execution and commendable action scenes, and that is the beauty of this film which was little over-stretched in the climax but was saved by astounding Denzel Washington. Antonie Fuqua ( Training Day ) did pretty well in shaping the movie to be a blunt and taut revenge action-packed thriller. The movie takes sometime to build on you but when it does , there is no turning back. Each scene is beautifully depicted with rocking background score and applauding dialogues. Icing on the cake is the well-choreographed action scenes which has been executed brilliantly with graphic bloodshed looking like a PC game. Script is tight and will keep you engaged. The flip-side is unnecessary inclusion of climax scenes which could be easily be edited. Art direction and cinematography is superb. I loved Denzel Washington's punchline as he turns from a common man into a super-human rescuing the girl from the hands of evil. Do not the miss 16-seconds action scenes between him and the thugs. ChloÃ« Grace Moretz does well in the supporting role.
You will become a fan of Denzel Washington after watching The Equalizer. Good 3/5
