The Equalizer: Denzel Boner

I am a shameless lover of Denzel Washington kicking ass. If I'm wrong that it's great entertainment, I don't want to be right. With that preface out of the way, I eagerly saw Equalizer. Denzel is a widowed man working at a Home Depot-esque store, reading classic literature, helping a couple people with life, and drinking tea some evenings at a 24/7 diner because he doesn't sleep. There he meets an underaged "call-girl" played creepily by Chloe Grace Moretz because she was 16 during filming, but she does a good job and will continue to get work. She turns 18 in February, so all creepy/pederast-like stuff comes off the board, which will help her out I'm sure. They chat for a bit, she is called to a limo where a large man she refers to as a "pig" of a client shuttles her away. She comes back with a bruise next time at the diner, Denzel asks what happened, she lies, next time he sees her is at a hospital where she is staying because she was severely beaten. Denzel now takes special interest, which is all you've wanted to see since the opening credits. He stops by the pimps place of business, offers $9800 to buy her freedom. Slavi (the Pimp) makes the last mistake of his life and Denzel kills 5 dudes in 25 seconds unarmed. You find out those 5 guys ran a decent portion of a Russian crime bosses' Boston syndicate. Russian crime boss is angry, he sends his "Get Shit Done" guy named Teddy, played by admirably by Marton Csokas, who I remember as the King who fucks up horribly in Kingdom of Heaven. Teddy uses the local crew (crooked Boston Cops) to help track down Denzel. Denzel now decides to make his pet project fucking up the Russian's crime syndicate and things are finally to where you want them to be. Denzel is great in this role of aged, but still crazy lethal, hitman. Bottom Line: 7.6 out of 10. If you enjoy supreme badass Denzel, you're going to like this. I was actually GIDDY waiting for him to kick someone's ass. There are a few too many details outside of him kicking Russian ass for my liking, but they needed to fill some time.
