Saw "The Equalizer" starring Denzel Washington tonight at Regal Cinemas! Washington plays "Robert McCall," who in this action-packed crime thriller film works at a "Home Mart" a home improvement store by day, and by night must do all he can with his hidden black ops combat skills to defeat Russian Mafia Members who abuse women, steal money from local merchants, traffic drugs, and even have corrupt cops working for them.
"McCall" meets "Teri" played by Chloe Grace Moretz. at a local diner in Boston, Massachusetts where he frequents. He comes to find out she is an escort who has ended-up in a life she really doesn't want to be in. He tries to convince "Teri" that there is a better life for her while making it his duty to ensure the people responsible for abusing her and other women pay the ultimate price.
At the same time, "McCall" is focused on doing right by the community he resides in by eliminating the bad guys as "The Equalizer." "McCall" played by Washington is targeted by the head Russian Mobster "Vladimir Pushkin" played by Vladimir Kulich when he finds out "McCall" is interfering with his operations and sends an enforcer, "Teddy" played Marton Csokas to Boston to eliminate "McCall."
After evading several assassination attempts, "McCall" visits fellow retired operatives "Brian Plummer" played by Bill Pullman and "Susan Plummer" played by Melissa Leo in Virginia, who help him acquire intelligence on "Pushkin's" illegal activities. "McCall" then captures "Frank Masters" played by David Harbour, a corrupt Bostonian policeman who has been aiding "Teddy," and forces him to help in his efforts to sabotage "Pushkin's" operations in Boston.
Denzel Washington is at his greatest since Training Day in 2001 and this movie surely has its action along with some funny moments. If you are looking for an action-packed crime thriller, this one is most definitely for you! My cinema score is 8/10! ‪http://www.equalizerthemovie.com/ #‎maverickradio‬
