Storyline:
In The Equalizer, Denzel Washington plays McCall, a man who believes he
has put his mysterious past behind him and dedicated himself to
beginning a new, quiet life. But when McCall meets Teri (Chloë Grace
Moretz), a young girl under the control of ultra-violent Russian
gangsters, he can't stand idly by - he has to help her. Armed with
hidden skills that allow him to serve vengeance against anyone who would
brutalize the helpless, McCall comes out of his self-imposed retirement
and finds his desire for justice reawakened. If someone has a problem,
if the odds are stacked against them, if they have nowhere else to turn,
McCall will help. He is The Equalizer. Written by
Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Movie Reviews:
Antoine Fuqua's and
Denzel Washington's paths collide once more as they come together to
create a stylish and daring action thriller about a man with a
mysterious past, whose quiet life suddenly turns into a rip- roaring
adventure of guns and thrills. Both Denzel Washington and Chloe Grace
Moretz give stellar performances and display perfect chemistry as two
friends stuck in a world of crime and violence. Arguably Fuqua's best
film since 'Training Day', 'The Equalizer' is a brutal and merciless
tale that explores the Russian underworld on the East Coast and the
corruption ties within the law enforcement of Boston's police
department.
