I've got to say, I want to see more of Robert McCall, the main protagonist of Equalizer. This guy is a realistic badass, using his skill and perfect timing to even the odds in a one-man-war against the Russian mob, who have taken over his city.
At first, I didn't buy this movie (figuratively speaking). First maybe 30 minutes were a snore, but once it got into it's odd groove, the movie is pretty cool. Some little bugs, like an overuse of slow-motion (in an attempt to make it "cooler") and some other stuff, but the overall product isn't bad.
The musical score is awesome. The only time I remember a better one is in Transformers (you can hate on the movie series, but the musical score is one of the best I've heard). The acting from Washington is believable.
The overall believability in this movie help it gain it's own footing in the individuality.
One of the things I wished they focused more on is his past. It's so murky, that it leaves you scratching your head.
The movie is gritty, dark, and again, realistic.
The preview was promising, the style was cool, but in the end, most of the movie until the end is boring. No immature boob shots, so hurray!
