If you're looking for entertainment, it's worth the price of a matinee ticket.
Good guns, good fights, lots of edged weapons stuff.
Reality however, isn't supported by any means.
Kind of an odd tempo to the movie.

I missed the first one, was it any good? Thinking about watching 1 first.

(ETA: The first movie) It is a tale, not even a story. Think of John Wick type of feel good violence.
Miss the old TV series and the even then old school Brit guy laying down the smacks. Still want a 4 door jag like he had.
All I want to know is, where is "Air Wolf"? He could have drones with him for his 'pack'. Bellisario, where are you?

I've seen the first one and will pay to see the second one. I'm a fan of Denzel and will always be inclined to see his work. I fully expect it to be light in the plot & story department and heavy in the gratuitous & frivolous violence.

It was OK. Not very memorable. Came out about the same time as John Wick and while they're both fairly... light on story, I think John Wick was the better of the two movies. I've actually rewatched John Wick a number of times. And apart from the fact that I don't remember much about what happened in The Equalizer, I haven't ever had much desire to rewatch it (I think I almost immediately forgot about what had happened in the movie as soon as it ended).Originally Posted by TomMcC

Liked Denzel's reboot but I'll wait for the rental on the sequel.

I watched it over the weekend with a buddy. While I remember enjoying the first movie, this one was thoroughly disappointing (an opinion shared by my friend).

Peter Woodward (Gen. O' Hara in "The Patriot" - Lord Cornwallis's right-hand man, & Edward Woodward's son) has the right accent & bearing for a reboot of the TV show. Otherwise...

I watched it a few days ago. It was better than watching Mama Mia II.
It was not terribly believable, but not the point anyway. Decent flick for DVD
