My Movie Review: The movie is a peculiar action sequel that takes a very different approach from its predecessor with thorough investigation on the crime scene and more violent activities! Equalizer II is inventive in showing how justice must be serve even if it's not necessary in some ways resulting in too much violence and ruthless vigilance that kept us so tense in most frame! Denzel Washington reprises his role for his first sequel in his entire career manages to charm us despite the unpleasant things going on his wit and talent was pleasure to watch on screen:) Set in unfamiliar location he was able to come back home and mark his territory conquer the enemies in a foggy atmosphere taking them one by one until reaching the tower it's bloodbath:)

Movie News: Denzel Washington playing a Lyft driver? No one could have predicted that casting choice. The actor gets behind the wheel and picks up customers in the Boston Area. Washington’s character, Robert McCall is still a retired special-ops agent hellbent on equalizing the criminal scum he encounters on his watch. His cover last time was a job at Home Depot, but the Lyft gig gives him access to the worst of people. Edward Woodward, who starred in the 1980s series on which The Equalizer is based, never got to lay on rough, R-rated justice like Denzel. You’re probably thinking, isn’t the two-time Oscar winner punching below his weight in a vigilante movie? Yes but nothing dims his star power. Denzel Returns to Right More Wrongs!!
