RJ The original Equalizer film with Denzel was definitely a stunner. I feel like this one was a bit of a step down, but not that far down from the original. Plus what makes it not feel like a sequel is the fact that his hair is grown in, in this film. Unless I’m missing something, it just feels like a continuity error throughout the whole movie and that’s one of the smaller reasons I gave this film one star less. Either way? Denzel Washington carried this film and I still loved it. Especially the hurricane sequence. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/07/25 Full Review George R “This time, it’s personal… again.” You know a movie’s in trouble when you can predict who’s going to die based on how sincere their first conversation is. The woman McCall chats with on the train? She might as well have worn a shirt that said Dead by Act Two. The filmmakers probably thought they were being clever. Sorry—I’ve seen this dance before. She’s doomed the moment she shows a flicker of warmth. Equalizer 2 isn’t a thriller, it’s a PowerPoint presentation of clichés. People show up, say exactly what they need to say to be avenged later, then disappear until it’s time for McCall to frown, grab a hammer, and deliver justice in slow motion. And the villains? One by one, like lemmings. They never team up, never flank, never say, “Hey, maybe don’t fight the human Terminator alone in a hurricane.” They just walk into their deaths like it’s a union gig. The “twist” (if you want to call it that) involving McCall’s old buddy turning out to be the bad guy isn’t a twist so much as a contractual obligation. The moment he walks onscreen with that “too calm, too clean, probably evil” look, you can hear the plot thudding into place. And what’s with the stormy final battle on an abandoned seaside town? It’s like someone said, “You know what would really elevate this flat revenge tale? Wind machines and mood lighting!” Denzel does what he can. He always does. But even he can’t save a movie that feels like it was written by a committee with access to an AI trained solely on Liam Neeson films. Bottom line: Equalizer 2 isn’t suspenseful. It’s a checklist. And I’ve seen this checklist before. Just a reminder. Justice is blind. So is the script.

Rated R for Language, Brutal Violence Throughout and Some Drug Content!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Starring Denzel Washington!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/11/25 Full Review Jack T Overall, a solid action movie! The acting was mostly strong, with Denzel Washington delivering his signature tough-guy performance as an ex-hitman. However, a few scenes felt lacking in quality—particularly those involving Miles. For example, when operatives held him at gunpoint in McCall's apartment, his reaction seemed underwhelming. I expected more fear or intensity given the life-threatening situation. Despite these moments, the film was engaging and worth watching for action fans.
