Review of The Equalizer (2014) by Movie K — 01 Dec 2015

Denzel Washington rarely fails and this movie is good action. He is an ordinary man with OCD, works in home mart, good with colleagues and likes to read. Chloë Grace Moretz is a teen prostitute who often hang out at the same diner as Denzel and they talk often.

She don't like to serve a customer who often beat her. Her pimp take her away by force and beat her up badly. Denzel visit her in hospital and ask her friend Hayley Bennett about the pimp. He offer $9800 to buy Chloe freedom which is snubbed.

He kills all 5 in their office. The Russian mob send Marton Csokas to investigate and revenge. Few local police are bribed long ago to help. When Denzel colleague quit his job to help out at his mama shop which is burnt, he know 2 corrupt cops collecting bribes.

He film them and beat them up, want them to return the money or he will post the video. Marton is a hard man who don't care about local mob. He question Heyley and killed her. Finally he track down Denzel at home and know he is something.

They try to kill him at the diner but Denzel anticipated. He managed to escape and spy the gang at his home. Denzel visit an old friend Melissa Leo who is from CIA. Now he know who he is dealing with.

Melissa told her husband he is not coming for help but is seeking permission. From this you know he is a total bad ass. Denzel do his investigation and strike first, threatening the corrupt cop and expose the money joint, blowing up the tanker.

Marton send in his guys to finish the job. He found the weakness and hold the colleagues hostage. Denzel get off early from the bus before he is been snipe and crash in the warehouse to save his colleagues.

Without any gun he use the things around to kill all the baddies, killing Marton with a nail gun. 3 days later at Moscow, he visit the Russian mob boss and kill him. Chloe is recovering well and find a proper job.
