Movie Review: THE EQUALIZER

image from impawards.com
A retired Assasin is challenged to take control of his exceptional skill to gundown men when he met a young Russian girl who was force for whoring. 

Denzel Washington known here as Mr.Mccall, gave so much justice to the character. He showed symptoms of having an Obsessive-compulsive disorder that enables him to detect when something/someone is about to harm him. When he tried to buy the freedom of Ariana (played by Chloƫ Grace Moretz ) from the Russian gangster for $9800, he was sent to shame by refusing his offer. That's when he killed all five men in one room for 16 minutes. He counted it before executing. A man named Nicolai (Marton Csokas) came to avenge his people. Believing that he could outdo McCall, he did everything to track him and send him to his own grave.

The movie ended with Mc Call succesfully killed the head of the snake. He travelled all the way to Russia and electricuted the head of all after scraping all their money in the US. 

It's not your ordinary Assasin-turned-into-changed-man...the moves that Denzel applied to this is beyond that of Liam Neeson in Taken. He got tactics that are so clean yet deadly. It took my breath away. You should watch it. :D
