1. The Equalizer movie review & film summary (2014) - Roger Ebert
The Equalizer is an average-Joe blue-collar version of a comic-book avenger, secretly stalking those responsible for abusing and preying upon innocent citizens.
If "The Equalizer" lacks gravitas, it is fairly sturdy as far as pure entertainment goes—and the actor takes his stealth vigilante as seriously as he does his Oscar-nominated performances in "Flight" or "Malcolm X," pulling out that patented charm as well as considerable deadly force.

Director : Antoine Fuqua Year Of Release : 2014 Principal Cast : Denzel Washington, Marton Csokas, Chloe Grace Moretz, David Harbour, Bill Pullman, Melissa Leo, Johnny Skourtis. Approx Running Time : 131 Minutes Synopsis: An ex-CIA SAD operative conducts acts of vigilantism to protect the weak and innocent, bringing him into the cross-hairs of the Russian mob operating in Boston. What we think : Atmospheric, tense, dangerous mob-centric thriller has Washington in quiet assassin mode, and the city of Boston front and center for a war on crime. Slower than people will expect (at least if you’ve seen a trailer for this), and never really that deep as far as characters or motivations go, The Equalizer is still effective in its simple mission to entertain. Well worth a look.
