For 25 years now, dir. Antoine Fuqua has been in the game now.
I highly recommend 2 of his other classics:
The Replacement Killers (1998), his directorial film debut with John Woo as executive producer.
The 2016 remake of the western classic, The Magnificent Seven with Denzel leading an ensemble cast.
That’s how terrorist stings usually go, they don’t really check for them to be armed
Denzel sings an old hymn while killlng the final guy.
Hey you guys should watch American gangster he’s like a young equalizer in it lol
here goes gregpigg interrupting the reaction with his dum jokes that we don't like to see
My theater had a featurette before the showing with the director talking about Denzel and Dakota, even talking about how proud Denzel was of her for how far she's come as an actress. He quoted Denzel saying "she's a grown up now," and my heart melted hearing that. Denzel is truly one of the coolest dudes in Hollywood.
mY hEaRt mElTeD. Shut up. You don't know them.
Has she acted in anything recently? It feels like she hasn't acted since those last few twilight movies.
@@prathapkutty7407Idk you may see her sister more than her now. But I'm glad she was willing to do this one just the reunion alone was awesome
@@prathapkutty7407I think she's been in some TV shows mainly
My theater before had nicole Kidman give some speech I’ve never seen before about magic the gathering or something
I loved what Double Toasted said about Robert: the bad guys keep saying things like "we're gonna get this guy TOMORROW" but they already messed up cuz he's coming to get them TONIGHT.
He warned him to be sooner 😄
right....he was like....why wait.....the smoke already here....here comes the fire!!
@@goat1408here comes the Man On Fire..
@@jasondearham8243 I understood that reference! 😅
"I understand weakness. I understand pain. I understand death. I understand suffering. And because of these people, I'm starting to understand peace. You can't take that away from me." - Denzel always have the best lines 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
And that starting to understand peace just may have been finding peace within himself.
@@blacksheep_edge1412 That's true bro
The Equalizer trilogy is nothing short of awesome movie making with an awesome protagonist.
Denzel never fails.
That's what makes this character great. He *does* like being violent and brutal. And he knows that is not a good thing. Which is why his answer to "are you a good man" was "i don't know". He tries to use his brutality in service of good -- hence equalizing his inner demon with his inner angel.
Yeah he's similar to Dexter's mentality. He's a monster himself and uses it to fight other monsters
@@tylerm7300they even mentioned Dexter once during this watch along.
@@rmhartmanyou right lol. I commented that right before
7:37 he was firing at the echoes reverberating off the buildings in front of him that were caused by the shots that broke behind him. He couldn't reconcile the fact that this seemingly innocent kid he let go shot him in the back. He was laying down suppressive fire on the positions HE would of posted up on to make a killbox. Hell of a thing.
Fascinating detail. Thanks for laying this out
I couldn't figure out why until you pointed this out. That makes so much sense.
Dakoda Fanning is playing a CIA officer in financial crimes analysis essentially an office analyst. He brings her in because of who her mom was. She comes off as inexperienced and out of her element because she is. But Robert wants to change that for the love and memory of his friend.
Dakota.
Also he sees potential in her. She connected some things herself, but never looked at the bigger picture which he taught her to. Now she's in a new position & can continue learning & possibly becoming the agent/head figure her mother was.
@BlackGirlMarvel true, but i think what @l.piloto7964 is saying is that @ReelRejects said Dakota didn't seem to be acting as well as the rest of the cast, that her acting seemed unpolished...but maybe Dakota's acting was actually very much on point as a fish-out-of-water.
This is like a swan song for Denzel's Robert McCall. Someone suggested a prequel storyline for a younger Robert McCall with John David Washington starring to Antoine Fuqua and he said that's not a bad idea at all. That would be so good to see how Robert McCall became the superspy agent that he came to be. Also his wife and how much he loved her and exploring that relationship would be another incredible storyline.
Michael B. Jordan would have been a better pick for that role
Michael B Jordan if you’re doing a recruit origin film. John David Washington if you’re doing an already seasoned but younger Robert. Do both if you’re making a prequel trilogy
Or cast John Boyega since he actually looks like a young Denzel.
I wouldn't mind seeing a prequel. I would love to see how all this started
@@prathapkutty7407 He really does look more like him then his own son. I like that choice.
I saw this one twice, Dolby Cinema & IMAX at AMC.
Seeing how far McCall has come as this force of nature is quite the experience.
Having him near death and defeat was hard to look at.
I really thought he was gone for good.
He reveals more of his invulnerablity as he gets to know the people of this Italy province.
Seeing the best of them and the worse of them.
Of course, McCall truly lives up to his name by dealing out the most major punishment to these mafia goons.
Their boss getting it the worse is well-deserved.
Onscreen with Dakota Fanning after 20 years since Man on Fire was some great conversational scenes and dialogue.
The reveals of McCall's reason for being overseas and Fanning's agent character made me feel so good.
That everything happens for a reason, no mistakes or consequences.
A worthy finale indeed.
Glad to have been along for it.
Justice perfectly balanced as it should be.
Notice he forgot his spoon at the end. Healing and Deliverance.
This easily became one of my favorite movies of the year. I think as much as 2 solved some of my issues with the first one. This solved all of my issues by being short and concise.
Watching Denzel act makes me happy. He’s beyond talented
The staring into the eyes or terrorizing the target till death is a way of saying "if there is an afterlife and you want to come for me remember the cost you will pay".
Denzel Washington did an outstanding job with the character
So excited to see Greg and Coy react to this movie! Denzel is so great in this movie! 👍
Dakota’s performance is perfect for what she is playing. She is playing a young agent with zero field experience- she is attempting bravado because of her inexperience. She is a young woman in a male field dealing with criminals in a foreign country. Her performance wouldn’t be “natural”. She would be attempting to look more confident than she is
I want to see McCall and Wick together, but there would have to be one hell of a good script to justify it. Which is why, i think, it took so long to get E3 -- Denzel didn't want to do a sequel just to franchise. He wanted a good movie or nothing.
Nice to see Denzel Washington and Dakota Fanning reunite nearly 20 years after Man on Fire came out
The cleverness of Robert McCall is taking to the fight to the enemies. He always goes on the offensive.
*taking the fight to the enemies.
Damn both greg and coy killing it with the puns😂.
4:30 I remember seeing this moment in theaters and thinking, “Hey, he finally upgraded his watch. Nice 😄”
He gave those nice townsfolk a “Safe House” 😂 laughed way too hard during this watch lol
I loved the slow burn of the movie. they could put a camera on denzel for 2 hours of him reading the health labels on the back of cereal boxes and i'd be so entertained. Watching this movie, i just thought to myself, it would be amazing to watch Denzel as a detached serial killer. Give me a Denzel Horror.
Which is what makes his performance as Macbeth SO FUCKING GOOD.
"He's emotions are off the fences" reference and then looks at Coy to see if he caught it😂😅
😑
The strangulation with a Garrote is just brutal but a clean execution.
Don't you mean decapitation?
Robert McCall is about psychology with the adversaries he faces off against. The minds games with the classic exposition the independent variable leading to the action which relies on the exposition.
one of the best horror movies this year. roberto is terrifying
This is Not a horror film it’s a thriller / action and it’s the worst out of all 3 films
@@rachaelhogan7850 missed the joke and big cap
@@rachaelhogan7850definitely not the worst it showed him in a total different light of just wanting and finally finding peace
Such a great trilogy! Glad you two liked it as much as I did. As always I appreciate your video!! ❤
Haven't seen it yet but I heard he's basically a slasher in this movie, more terrifying than the villains themselves
Congrats to Denzel Washington for completing his first trilogy ever and it was cool that he brought Dakota into this and I figured that she was related to the FBI couple but a great reunion nonetheless. Awesome reaction fellas
I have to agree 1000% on the photography/cinematography.. its beautiful and I wanna visit Italy now lol.
Don't know who the Red Head guy that reacts is but I have to say, that lad has some good insight on him,. Everything he mentioned or brought light to, was well versed and made you click with the topic at hand or atleast go "Hmm yeah I see that". Great reaction overall and a fantastic trilogy, sad to see Denzel getting too old for it now but that's life, everything has to end sometime.
You know, with everyone always asking McCall who he is, i bet he gets a perpetual sense of Deja Vu.
What makes him the Equalizer is that he never does it for the Glory, he just simply is that guy, the one that always has Courage Under Fire, leaving behind a trail of dead badguys like some sort of Crimson Tide. He's always helping the Fallen and passes off the thanks he gets like it's so Much Ado About Nothing. He lays Siege to the evildoers like some sort of Bone Collector. When he sets his watch, you know the bad guys are Out Of Time.
Where would you rank this one out of the three?
I'd rank them like this: 3. Equalizer 2 2. Equalizer 3 and then the 1st one is still the best one. My problem with this film is that they were promoting this film as "the Man On Fire reunion with Dakota Fanning & Denzel." But the issue is that they didn't even properly utilize Dakota's character. I was very disappointed that they basically gave her NOTHING to do the whole film. Honestly, it didn't feel like she was needed and I hated that.
Equalizer 3 was like the last in my ranking the Equalizer series it was super boring and predictable
As movies, probably 1, 3, 2. As Equalizer movies, 1, 2, 3. I'm not a fan of this one because the action scenes were a letdown compared to 1 and 2. Plus, Dakota Fanning's character isn't set up for anything. Bob basically hands everything to her.
I do love the story and conclusion to Robert's arc.
@@ImAlsoMerobibathe action scenes are the most brutal in this movie I thought
1. Equaliser 1
2. Equaliser 3
3. Equaliser 2
Love the review, guys! I definitely had a really similar reaction. One thing I differed on was Dakota Fanning. I felt she fit her character perfectly, because she had enough experience to be a little cocky, but she was still fresh enough that she didn't have the wisdom of the world around her like Robert McCall.
Loved how deep this movie went, and it will likely still be in my top movies of the year by the year's end.
Regardless how others feel. I just love the commentary of you two. Sharing a movie experience with you guys is so fun.
When homie got his hand cut off my friends and I kept the running gag of all the docs patients always "fell down" 😂
Edit: I was waiting for a "Two Guns" reference when Denzel came out with the two blickys 😅
Saw this the other day in the theater and was quite surprised
Compared to 1 and 2 this one has a completely different feel to it, action is still hard and violent but not so focused on. Its more focused on the story and character of Robert instead and what he is going through.
“Are you threatening me?”
“I’m preparing you” CHILLS 👏🏾👏🏾
I've been counting days down when is Reel Rejects gonna make The Equalizer 3 Movie Reaction and Review and its finallyyy heree❤️❤️!!!
Arlington Road, Extraction 1, Extraction 2 and Equalizer 3 taught me one thing....don't trust them damn kids.
I've seen The Equalizer a billion times with dad. I went with him to see this in cinema last month. Also, the scene with the bad guys in the kitchen and saw the corkscrew, my dad & I were saying that someone is gonna get the corkscrew like the first time. The theme when he's ready to fight, I want that as a ringtone
If that ringtone isn't available, I bet you could make one.
@@w1975b definitely
Great back and forth commentary as always. Fun series!
The last time the villain asked “who are you” we see Robert’s mouth move but we don’t hear him. I’m pretty sure he says “the equalizer”
"This is our towns serial killer." lmfaoo 😅
A sociopath who refuses to acknowledge the fact that he's evil would have said he's a good guy and not that the doesn't know. My thought at least.
The stain glass window that the body came through was of the Archangel and Saint Michael, who cast Satan out of paradise. Robert is casting the mafia out of his paradise.
Seeing this again threw the eyes of a review. it really stands out that Dakota was trying to bring out the character of her character's mother. if she had been her own person or showed her at least trying to fill in her mother's shoes instead of showing up and trying to show that she's just as capable took away from her character. better still if Denzel's interactions with her had a more mentor angle instead of confirming the work she put in like a teacher grading a paper. " you rolled back the camera's" was very " you took A plus B and for C " but imagine if she had presented another method he hand;t thought of and in Denzel fashion, he laughed about it and gave her a compliment then you got to see him use that new method. would have also reinforced he's not just becoming comfortable with what he's always done and made his peace with it. but would have shown that he can still learn and grow and that this was a new chapter for himself it's a sign of growth.
They turned Robert into a slasher villain in this movie. The end scene in the mansion was something right out of Halloween.
Dude became The Shape for a bit there.
“Right up the exit!” 😂 I’ve never heard that. I’m gonna use it 😄
The timing for this video is crazy I just saw it and this is actually one of my favorite movies period
I don't know how u guys got this already, but thanks... One of my fav films of Summer 🌞
Really enjoyed watching this with you guys
Great reaction fellas 🤜🏽🤛🏽
The first movie is justice, and the second movie is revenge. the third is righteous retribution... a reckoning if you will.
He read his 100th book in Part 2. Keep up 😂😂
Fun Fact: The actor that played Enzo in The Equalizer 3 played Enzo Ferrari in Ford v. Ferrari directed by James Mangold (November 2019).
Love the fact they specified in the beginning note for "UA-cam"🤣😅
I love you guys reaction videos as always. Always with the right energy, just funny and insightful information coming from you. I hope they do a Equalizer 4 but im thinking not. But this was great watching along with you to. I have a good horror movie for you to react to called Stay Alive.
The wheelchair scene reminded me of the scene from the Pianoist. Heart wrenching.
I'm a sucker for films about a stranger wandering into town and helping people.
BTW you guys have to watch the Crow. It's amazing.
I didn’t like how cartoonishly evil the villain was, but overall this was pretty good!
He's realistic. Those mafia people don't play around. I guess you haven't watched any cartel execution videos.
Lol I love rewatching stuff with you guys
Remo Girone who plays Enzo, also played another character named Enzo.... specifically Enzo Ferrari in Ford V Ferrari which ya'll need to see.... I didn't find it in the channel so.....
@you should feel the jaw-dropping and flawless choreography of The Continental
I gotta say, it has been a joy watching you guys react to this entire trilogy ❤️
Thanks you guys. You bring me so much joy and entertainment
Been waiting all week for this!
I’ve been waiting for this!
18:55 Bloody hell, Greg! You’re good at this! 🤯 This is why I’m subscribed! 😎👍
I honestly enjoyed this film showed him in a totally different light we saw a softer side but obviously still brutal. It really shows how he just wanted peace, and finally found it in that small town with a community that all treat each other like family which explains why that window he normally gives the bad guys to do the right thing got cut VERY short.
I really enjoyed the cinematography in this and Denzel's performance as usual is top notch. I need to watch them all again and then I can rank them. I think I like this more than 2 though.
I couldn't wait for this reaction. Well worth it. I was waiting for Denzel movies..Ricochet, Magnificent 7, American Gangster and The Bone Collector 😂😂❤❤
THANK YOU BOTH FOR WAITING TO WATCH IT !!!
I know it is always the case, but man Denzel Washington was awesome in this movie
I agree. Antoine and Denzel created, in this trilogy, a study of "show, don't tell".
I also agree SOME of the CIA cutaways were odd or unnecessary... but the bit where they raided the winery and found the drugs set up the connection for the drugs found on Marco's crew... and the connection between the winery and the Cammora rather than terrorists... however I think the bit where Dakota (i forget the character's name) was interrogating the one dude (off the books) was maybe meant to show she was chasing the wrong lead (terrorists).... but could have easily been left out altogether as it only raises more questions and answers none. In fact, the entirety of the CIA investigation could easily have been left out... it was an unnecessary plot arc... the only thing i can see is it introducing Dakota to the story... maybe Equalizer 4 will center on her???
And I've long held the theory that Creasy didnt die, he became the Equalizer. Check my math.
You guys covered yourselves in GLORY with this one!
Had the same reaction of the horror vibe both time that I saw the film. Hope you keep the denzel action kick.
If I had to rank from least favourite to favourite it would be: 2, 3 and then 1 at the top. I love them all tbh. btw is there going to be a Chucky Season 3 reaction?
“What’s the fatality” dude ya asked that after he said he was gonna let him OD on the pills. 😂
19:21 comment. ...no flaw!!! The bad guy in denial says he's a good guy, not doesn't know...the neeeeeed to deny requires the lying. A good man says he's good, but few have removed themselves from bad and unwittingly say the wrong thing. A good man who is feeling guilty says he is bad...and a bad man believes he loses assistance to say he's bad-and so lies saying he's good. A man who acts questionablly, but has done bad things moreso out of need or obligation and wants to do good acts and be a Good man,, says he does not know.,,,some might say,,, I No_Know.-Ernie Moore Jr.
18:55
Holy freaking cow! How did you deduce that so early????!!!!
How you guys will be in a theater joke, hilarious!!! Couldn't stop laughing.
Loved your reaction. best of the three without doubt.
that part with the van where he starts killing is like a horror movie. very chilling
He was singing a few bars from an old gospel song while waiting for the head bad guy to die. "one day when I was lost" continues.. Jesus died upon the cross. The title of the song I think was ''I know it was the blood'. It's as if he was saying to the villian or maybe himself, it's redemption by blood. Very deep.
Was waiting for this one
Saw this movie when it came out at a drive-in movie theatre. Love it
Pretty cool how Enzo Farrari also played Enzo Farrari on Ford vs Farrari.
I remembered Greg and Jaby are half Italian and Filipino so yeah that must've been nice just appreciating Altamonte and getting attached to the locals too
It's hilarious you blur out the bad parts. So funny !!!
I feel like you two to watch more Denzel movies. So many to choose from. Book of Eli next?! Then Coy and John can do YOUNG JUSTICE. Thanks in advance.
❤ 1st time checking you guys out. 9:55 I'm only that far in and I know I'm gonna watch the rest. Good stuff.
5 year wait not 7 the equalizer 2 came out in 2018 guys lol great reaction awesome movie
definitely not at the level of the other two movies in terms of action, but maybe above in terms of "why".
if you would lay the three side to side, they would be:
1: "Because I can"... he kills the Russian gang to cover his own existence, otherwise he's gonna be exposed.
2: "Because I must."... he goes out of his way to *track* the assassins that killed one of his friends.
3: "Because it is the right thing to do."... he could have left the area and leave the case to both local AND international police, especially after tipping Emma, but he stays.
that's largely what makes this movie: "It's the right thing to do". He was never meant to hunt the mafia or get involved at all... he just happened to be there, when someone was needing help.
it all comes around right at the end: "I don't get it", "You will."
either you get it, or you don't.
I see these as a Vengeance movie for those who can’t get their own revenge…
You guys should watch both makes of Last House on the Left!!
Pita and Denzel back together again 🥹🤣
@Reel Rejects,this third installment film should have made a crossover,Taken& The Transporter all rolled into one film this time to form a club of individual who kicks ass& take names?.
It's so crook that the movie starts with denzel "fallin " ha haa hee he I'm in it. Yay aussie girl. X
Man the references are killing me😂😂
