Review of The Equalizer 2 (2018) by Unreelreviews — 24 Jul 2018
How You view this movie will heavily depend on what you think of the first. I didn't mind the fist one, I was a bit disappointed because while though what I got was entertaining it wasn't as smart as I would have liked it to be and didn't give me those adrenaline filled action scenes that you normally get from most Antoine Fuqua movies.
As much as I commend him for tying a different route I don't think it pulled off. This movie offers more of those wild and adrenaline filled action scenes that I like to see, similar to the magnificent seven.
That's this movies biggest praise, the action scenes, they are filmed in a very old fashioned kind of way that reminds me of 90's action films. Denzel is great, there is no surprise there and I do like the emotions we get to explore with his character.
Besides that, this movie does have a very messy plot with a lot of supporting characters that are very boring and bring no further praise to the movie. Its entertaining, if you watch this movie for the action scenes and Denzel then that's all you really need to see.
