The Equalizer is more stylishly violent than meaningful, but with Antoine Fuqua behind the cameras and Denzel Washington dispensing justice, it delivers.

The movie's all about reading, especially with a critical eye, but when you take too close a look at its disparate parts, they neither add up nor have anything constructive to teach. Jul 19, 2016 | Full Review…

The director, Antoine Fuqua, relies on small details, which anchor the vigilante-as-saint myth in at least a minimal degree of reality. Sep 29, 2014 | Full Review…

"[Washington] projects the same kind of dignified gravitas whether he's playing Malcolm X or pulverising someone's skull with a Black & Decker drill." Sep 28, 2014 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

Fuqua infuses The Equalizer with a low-key energy and is in no hurry to rush into things. Sep 26, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

With greater care taken over the haphazard pacing and poor script, The Equalizer might have been a fun night out. Instead it begs the question of when Washington will be given a movie worth his talents. May 24, 2019 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

The Equalizer is good enough popcorn entertainment, made classier by the presence of Washington. Mar 1, 2019 | Full Review…

It's a film that starts in a nasty place and gets progressively worse throughout its 137-minute running time. This project is way below the talents of people like Washington and Fuqua. Jan 24, 2019 | Full Review…

All of the efforts of this top notch team are in service of an earnest film that maybe doesn't know how ridiculous it feels to pair saint-like qualities with a man who'll put a wine corker into your neck slowly as you bleed out in his arms. Oct 30, 2018 | Full Review…

In his 30 year film career, Denzel Washington has never made a sequel. In Robert McCall, we finally have a character that demands one. Oct 24, 2018 | Rating: 7.5/10 | Full Review…
