    Robert McCall was a decorated United States Marine, and later was a CIA operative. He quit the CIA because his wife asked him to, and to not kill anymore. That's why he said he was willing to break his promise to his wife when talking to Nikolai. His wife had gotten sick and died, and he continued to live like a normal civilian, and kept his promise, until he had enough of people he cared about being victimized.
    This movie was an unexpected hit, and the sequel was great too. The 3rd one is coming out later this year...

      That’s a great dialogue. There’s a similar dialogue in “The Fountainhead,” a book by Russian-American author Ayn Rand. The conceited bad guy asks the good guy,
      “What do you think of me”. The good guy replied, “That’s just it. I don’t think of you.” Cold-blooded.

    Denzel has always delivered gold when on screen, and the things he has said in person as himself off screen are more fire. I don't think Denzel will be up there in the Hollywood films anymore, and I will sing to that and praise his soul for understanding what is going on, and overtly showing he wants nothing to do with that. A class act, no less. ❤

    I watched the original 80's series that this was based on. I had liked that show, but Denzel took it to a new level! I really enjoyed his take on the character the best! He is what I imagine Robert McCall to be.

      I remember the series, but I don’t think I watched more than 2 or 3 episodes. At that time (85-89), I was busy running around, hanging with friend & partying, so I didn’t watch a lot of television during those years. When this movie came out, I remember being curious if they were basing it off the series, or if it just had the same name.

      For those who don't know, the 'OG' Robert McCall (Edward Woodward) was an older British chap who drove a Jaguar and was a former British Intelligence Service (MI6) operative who left because of internal hijinks.

    Yes, that was Harper from Stranger Things... Robert definitely had OCD, that's why everything had to be done a certain way, even when he repeatedly shut the door at the restaurant. Part 2 gives a little more insight on Robert's past... Another thing after taking out Slavie and he kissed his ring finger and said "I'm sorry". It was that he felt he broke a promise he made to his wife.

      The Equalizer is definitely one of my "guilty pleasure" films that I have seen many times, and most certainly will watch again (I & II). It's on the list with films like The Terminator, The Jason Bourne Series, Taken, etc. Seen them all multiple times but, every now and then you just want some visual comfort food. There's so much injustice in the world, so few things satisfy like a good vigilante flick.

    This movie has a bit of everything. Action, suspense, mystery, revenge, etc. I remember seeing this after it somehow fell through the cracks. I didn't expect much (I thought it'd be worth the watch like most Denzel movies) but something about this movie just floored me. I did NOT expect this movie to be this good. I love how effortless he is in this. And that's after he was 'slow' from his predictions when he'd time himself. This is him as a grizzled vet, but just imagine him in his heyday at the top of his game. Only Denzel could pull off being this calm and collected while also racking up that body count. And that's the best part of this movie. He's so quiet and calm, but it's intense and terrifying...if you're on the other side. Such a great movie and I'm so glad you wound up watching this.

    Denzel did a lot of studying and research about OCD so he could incorporate it with his character correctly. Chloe Grace Moretz (Elena) also did a lot of research on battered women and women involved in prostitution and trafficking. Not once was Denzel use a firearm in the movie, he improvises on how he takes people out. When Slavi was shot it was Robert grabbing the arm of one of the guards who was the one who shot him. That was a nail gun he used on Teddy at the end. As a couple of others said, watch Book of Eli, another good movie

    The original Equalizer was a TV series from 1985-1989 Edward Woodward played Robert McCall he was a retired secret agent. Having become disillusioned by all the rigmarole that comes with secret agenting, McCall starts to look out for the little guy. Calling himself "The Equalizer," McCall puts ads in the paper marketing to desperate people in desperate situations. McCall usually takes these cases for little or no money (he lives in a posh Manhattan apartment). Acting as both bodyguard and investigator, sometimes using his government resources, McCall usually manages to save the day. Peace out.

The girl, Elena, is Chloe Grace Moretz, who has been acting since she was a child. Both good actors. I love this movie!!! It's great!!! Denzel is the ultimate badass here. He uses any and everything at hand to kill his enemies. Cold as ice. Ruthless when he needs to be but kind and generous to those he cares about. I just love that type of duality in his character. Probably why this is one of my favorite Denial Washington movies. "The Equalizer 2" is not as good as the first but it's still enjoyable in it's own way. It's also the movie where you find out more about Robert McCall and who he really is. Great reaction guys!!!

    This is such a good film, and Denzel does a great job with it. The next one is equally as good, if not better. Hope you get to that one.
    Pure, unpasteurized honey contains significant antibiotic properties. People have been using it to dress wounds and prevent infection for thousands of years. It has even been known to fight some strains of MRSA that mainstream antibiotics cannot touch. Just don't boil it before hand, like he does in the movie, as that will kill all of the antibiotic properties in the honey.

    @Asia and BJ this was a fun watch. Denzel is one of the 25 greatest actors of all time, he brought a heart and pathos to this movie I never expected. Love the woman early on too who was in other films too but crushed her role in this as a young call girl forced into the life. Great direction, in the RARE times of watching a franchise E2 was slightly better then this classic we adored too. It was fun to see you and BJ @Asia put it together and figure it all out as you watched it :) hope you watch the sequel they are working on E3 this year

    That device he was using to shoot nails is a Hilti powder actuated nailer. It doesn't work the way they were showing in the movie. It needs to be pressed against the material being nailed to operate. When I was building houses, we used them to secure 2x6's to steel I-beams to provide a nailing surface for floor joists.

    I love the flick, I love the character and I hate to complain at all, but Hollywood does this all the time. The battle at the store HAS to have an aftermath. Bodies everywhere and all of McCall's coworkers know he was there. How does he just return to his life like nothing happened? We don't see him back on the job but he's in town and meets up with Terri/Alina. How is no one looking for him? Another great reaction guys, Keep 'em coming.

    Also I'm a child of the 80s and when I was growing up in 80s there was a TV show first called the equalizer in the show. Robert McCall was a former British spy that moved to New York City and helped people with his skills.

  • @sonofthesea3298

    One of my favourite movies of alltime,as you remember Man Of Fire is also one of them. Denzel is just outstanding,he goes soo into character its stunning,does soo much research and dedicates himself fully into his roles. And believe it or not,but The Equalizer 2 is considered BETTER then this one. And more good news on the way,The Equalizer 3 is on its way this year!
    11:04 For the youtube viewers unaware,Robert here used one of Teri`s own words,she said to Robert in the cafè prior to this "someone stupid" about her injury/bruised face,Robert used that to explain how his hand got bruised up,moping the floor with thoose who caused someone to lay theyr hand on her in the first place: "something stupid". Thats how you know that Robert connected deeply with Teri already and genuinly cared for her.
    18:05 Teddy thinks he is being smart,but Robert is thinking at least 1 step ahead of Teddy,At LEAST! Robert is quick with it!
    I tear up everytime i see Teri stumble across Robert at the end,the whole conversation where she mentioned a certain amount of money,that she didnt know Robert originally offered for her freedom. I freakin adore Chloë Moretz,shes soo beautiful and such a great actress!
    The bad cop was David Harbour,also known as Jim Hopper from Stranger Things indeed. He did such a great job with the Boston accent in this movie lol.
    The backstory on Robert McCall is more revealed in the second one. And Asia is right about the ending,Roberts services was needed elsewhere at the end,and he accepted. What that mission is about is the very beginning of number 2. Asia have your napkins ready! One of the best cliffhangers in movie history!

    The Equalizer original TV series back in the 80s starred veteran British actor Sir Edward Woodward (played the Ghost of Christmas Present in the George C Scott version of A Christmas Carol, 1984), as Robert McCall an ex-British spy, retired in America, using his 'particular set of skills' to help ordinary people who were being victimized. Then Denzel did these 2 most excellent movies, and couple years ago the TV series rebooted, starring Queen Latifah as Robyn McCall. It's a rich character, with endless plot possibilities. Even as a fan of the original back in the day, I must say Denzel's my favorite McCall.

When you go to a hardware store if any tools were used to give ppl an attitude adjustment. Robert is a former C.I.A operative. This is a reboot of the 80's tv show.
