    Samuel's story is so SO sad. He lost his sister when they got sent to the camps. He made it out, assumed her dead; he found HOPE when he saw the painting of him and his sister, dedicated his life to get ownership of it to have that piece of her. Only for her to BE ALIVE and them reunite in the end. I cry every time.

    Denzel's intelligence has led him to be very selective in his roles. Like Anthony Hopkins and James Stewart, he becomes the character, and you forget he is an acting icon of the film business. He's just top-tier all the way. You two have a very genuine reaction to these movies. Nothing gets past you in the script, either. Well done.

    The thing they carry over from the TV Series is the need for redemption from their previous life as an assassin.
    There's a scene in the TV series where he talks about waking up in a dream and he's on a beach, the sea is on fire and he is surrounded by the dead he killed or died around him.
    The pain when he's calling Miles killer reminds me of that, and informs his motivation to balance things out.

Everytime someone tries to bait him to talk about race relations he always brings it back to personal and individual responsibility and I love that about him. He's extremely wise for someone in Hollywood.

    I've talked to others about which film they liked more: 1 or 2. Most people seem to like 2 more and while 2 is very good, I still prefer 1 because that's when we learn was Robert is capable of. Also, I really enjoyed the tension between Robert and Nicolai in the first film. Finally, I was sore and still remain sore that they killed off Susan in 2! I really liked that character!

    I love that this movie got filmed near where I live. The first movie took place in mostly in Boston, this one filtered down to the South Shore. All those scenes in during the storm were filmed in Duxbury and Marshfield Ma. The wooden bridge they drove over is Powder Point, a local landmark. The water really is that close to some of those houses too. I honestly don’t know how they can live there when a storm comes through. Glad you guys enjoyed these, I don’t feel it gets enough credit.

I really wish the world had more people with that level of compassion, god knows the world needs it 💖

  • @_nauticaldisaster_

    I think the real appeal of this movie is Robert represents the majority of people in society. Not so much the efficient killer part but just the quiet, live and let live sort of person that really notices life's subtle injustices because you care and actually value the golden rule. He does what good people wish they could do to bring harmony and balance to the world. Just fixing good people's lives because he can't fix his own life and loss. This is how he equalizes himself, by equalizing the world around him and giving back to the people in pain because he understands that pain. The series is one of my favorites, ever.

    Great reaction ... on this and the last one too !!! BTW, the FLOUR thing was cool, and absolutely a REAL thing. Just like gasoline, flour won't blow up in bulk, but when it's "aerated" (i.e. air between droplet/particles), it is HIGHLY explosive. "All flours contain starch, which is a complex carbohydrate made from glucose molecules chained together. Glucose is almost always highly flammable." Basically, pretty much anything in powder form that is flammable is explosive when aerated, such as sawdust, talc, dust, etc. ... they all react the same way.

But watching the love between you two, reminds me of my wife and I, who have been together 55 years, married 53 and really adds to any review you make. You give me so much joy and peace and relaxation, I can't thank you enough. Nikki, I crack up when you are saying fuck this or fuck that and in the next breath saying "Oh Honey" or "such a sweet kid", etc, etc. You are very pretty and sweet and Steven reflects macho and a ball player like I understand he was.

    At 52:00 - flour is INCREDIBLY flammable. It's because of all the surface area of all the tiny particles, added to the fact that it can be easily aerated. A flashbang is basically an incendiary device (the noise is due to the rapid gas expansion from the ignition inside the body of the grenade). Corn storage silos, woodworkers shops and bakeries don't just burn, they basically explode if they catch fire (look up grain silo explosions if you never want to feel safe on a farm again) because the fire spreads so increibly fast.

    yeah, im a chef by trade and it is a little known fact that flour, if dusted and floating in the air, is highly reactive. I had a classmate who made a mess with a 100 lbs bag of flower and stopped in the middle of cleaning it up to light a smoke (a no-no in the kitchen). The blast knocked the hell out of him, blew out all of the light bulbs in the walk-in, and blew the door open. His eyebrows eventually grew back in a few weeks and he looked good with his new haircut.

    11:50 Fun fact: this young actor is Ashton Sanders. He worked in Moonlight, in 2017. When he was on the red carpet at the Oscars, where Moonlight won best picture, he met Denzel Washington for the first time - Ms. Washington introduced them both. There, Ashton said that one day he would work with Denzel. And Denzel just responded: "I'll see you at work." The following year, 2018, they worked together on Equalizer 2.

    So, a third Equalizer movie is in the works. Denzel has spent the past year in prep for it and the original director (and some original writers and production staff) are working on it. The third one is set to appear in an international setting, and Denzel has expressed he's actually very enthusiastic about the likelihood it'll maintain the energy of the first two. Here's hoping this happens, because I love Denzel in basically everything I've seen him in.
