Never seen any of these movies, but the ads Iâve been seeing online make it look terrible. Like in the ads, any time Denzel is being an action hero, it reminds me of lazy Steven Seagal. And the rest is just people sitting down and talking to each other trying to look edgy.

The first one was pretty good but youâre not that far off base.

I agree, the first Equalizer was the kind of movie that you can just mindlessly watch and still be entertained. The second one was the kind that is so ridiculous that it just takes you out of the movie every few minutes. And not in a âso bad itâs goodâ kind of way.

Youâre so right. The first one is fantastic. The character study of a OCD assassin was so interesting. And Denzel is such a great actor. The second one sucked. Magnificent 7 wasâŠokay. I saw this one last night because I really want Antone Fuqua and Denzel to recreate that magic but it felt like they both mailed it in on this one.
Bottom line: Good storyline that fit right in with the old school equalizer books and tv show while a neat twist that tied it to this movie trilogy but was just kindaâŠmeh.
