The Equalizer



Now I will be reviewing 2014's "The Equalizer starring Denzel Washington (editor's note: I was once asked to come up with a porno name on the spot, I came up with 'Dongzel Fucksaton').  The movie centers around Denzel as Bob, a man.  Currently he's living a rather boring life working at a home improvement store.  But soon learn he cannot sleep at night so he goes to an all night diner.  He befriends a hooker and realizes he should be fighting people more often.

So, Should I See It, or shoot this one in the head with a gun?

I'm going to have to say "See It".  Bob is really creative with the ways in which he goes about his business.  At one point he boils honey to disinfect a wound he sustained.  It's a natural antisemitic, so this scene really illustrates is craftiness.  Bob has quite the past, but we never learn it exactly.  Probably saving it for the sequel.  This piece is a part of the "Alvin and the Chipmunks Cinematic Universe" so they are calling the next one "The Sqealalizer".  I also enjoyed how Bob never met a foe that was his equal, meaning every fight he won, and won handily.  This allows the audience to rest their emotions and make relaxed faces.  The Equalizer = a great time!
