Denzel is a beast of an actor … a generational talent …
his son as well
@@nathan-ls8yw I loved Tenet. I thought it was amazing.
@@snowbear163 ikr
Definitely I'm surprised they haven't done man on fire. That's a beast of a movie.
Hell yea hate when they compare movies I like both movies
The Equalizer technically came out WAY earlier than John Wick. This movie is based on a television series from the 1980s. Denzel is perfect for this role which is very different from John Wick.
Was gonna say that lol
Yup, it was actually a high rated show for CBS I believe.
Dammit, I was gonna say that
Waaaaaaaaay! I watched it as a kid.
The Equalizer starring Denzel Washington is boss. Easily one of my favorite action films of all time. The end fight in the Warehouse is amazing. Lol
I like the equalizer more than John Wick. Denzel just seems to be a more interesting person than the John Wick character. And the equalizer is based in the real world versus the cartoon environment of John Wick.
equalizer is based on a tv series from 1985, which they do a fan fare tie into a previous movie Denzel did in 2004 called Man on Fire. production also started before John Wick. because of Equalizer they were forced to use an insane advertisement budget on John Wick to over shadow it. once you learn about his wife in the second movie, the people he hangs around and why he's a "fixer" makes sense.
And Man On Fire is a remake from a movie in the 1980s starring Scott Glenn. Scott was in Training Day as Roger and Courage Under Fire as that reporter with Denzel.
Y'all beat me to it.
Wait till third movie where shit gets real and he unchains himself and does 1 man battle against Italian mafia
Hmm
“Just launch a rocket at his b**** ass.” Man I almost died laughing 😂. I love these videos! Keep up the Seal Team breakdowns, it’s so cool watching actual operators analyze the tactics shown in one of my favorite shows 🔥.
Fun fact, John Wick was directed by Keanu Reeves former matrix stunt double Chad Stahelski as a passion project to explore gun fu in movies and co-directed by David Leitch who was Brad Pitt's former stunt double. Leitch went on to make Nobody and Bullet Train through their joint production company. 1:39
nice! all pretty damn good movies
Chad was also stunt double of brendon lee in the crow. All scenes where you didn’t see Brendon face was all Chad including the scene where he puts make up on. He shot all scenes after Brendon death
Keanu reeves is such a good actor
So if you watch the making of the movie, they have the fight coordinator say how his whole aim was to not waste movement or energy. He said Denzel isn't some young guy that's going to be jumping and throwing and falling. The aim of his scenes were minimalist in complexity with maximum effectiveness. I was just like, makes sense.
One of my all time favorite movies
The element of surprise.
The bag guys never expected the immediate level of violence that was brought.
In my country’s traditional medicine there are a lot of methods like that. For an example when my country was fighting the brits they were carrying a food we call kavum. Brits thought it was because we love to eat that but apperently the fungi grown on the kavum helped to fight the infection on wounds. Probably no one cares but thought some people may like to know
Finally! I have been waiting for this. You guys are the best. Great content, and unlike a lot of youtubers, you actually interract, and ask what the fans want.
Honey has been used to treat wounds for thousands of years. However boiling it is probably a bad idea as it kills a lot of the good stuff.
Who would have guessed their biggest beef with this awesome movie was a bowl of soup LOL
19:17 as a chef, I would think it’s a consumée, which is a very high end clarified broth. The clearer we can get it, the more we charge 😂 there are a couple of Michelin restaurants that do a perfectly clear tomato soup. Plus, by creating a “raft” as we call it, you add a lot of flavor.
Now, is any housewife, no matter how rich, making a consommée for dinner? No. Lol
Fun fact-there was n Australian (I think?) company about 15 years ago that introduced medical wound dressings impegnated in honey to promote healing. No idea if they're still available today.
The only reason to look forward to Sundays these days ❤
let's go!
The equalizer was a dark tv show from the 80's, the intro alone was scary.
Also in the "ex-military going hardcore" style, you should watch the movie LARRY BROWN.

Love the fact you are in shorts, find you hilarious....Thank you for your service
Dude that's real life! He's in a city of millions. It's extremely possible that a person could know a bunch of folks with life changing situations. As far as the ring, it could have been that he just wanted to hurt her by taking it. It's a show of power.
John Wick doesn't cut every other second. Keanu busted his ass to get in shape 4 that role. Denzel didn't.
Everyone refuses to admit that Keanu is a terrible actor. Stunts, off the charts though. What's most prolific about this film is Robert's balance of his dark and light. He highlights that a warrior submits to his darkness, to do good which balances the scales. But it comes at a cost. When Teddy says "you mark me as a sentimental man Mr. McCall..." He was unassuming to everyone because he is actually a good man doing dark deeds against dark men. 🖖🏾
Keanu is an awesome dude. Not the best actor I've seen. Heart and dedication I would say is what makes him stand out.
@@Silirion Go rewatch Matrix... Same guy in EVERY film
The Equalizer is a play on a TV show from the 70's. which was very similar to book/movie "man on fire", the original from he 60's, and the second one that Densel Washington did in the mid 2000's.
9:15 Buck zoned out checked out for a deep thought. I do that I consider it a skill
I actually heard about honey being used to help take away inflammation and infection during the medieval. When people would get shot with arrows they would break the arrow and then pull it out and then cover the wound and honey and bandage it. Of course back then people died from basically the common cold but it gave you a decent chance to survive from the infection. Because a lot of the soldiers would tip their arrows in all kinds of nasty shit so whoever got shot may not die from the initial flesh wound but you would die of some pretty terrible illness caused by a nasty infection. So honey was used a lot back then. And I guess it is still good today so go to Kentucky fried chicken and stack up on some honey in your bag lol.
There's another connection with John Wick, actually. The song you hear around the 25:10 mark ('Before I Die Alone') is also on the John Wick 2 soundtrack, at the end, when Keanu runs from all the assassins in Central Park ;)
The “superhuman” quality of Green Berets and every other special operator is simply the rejection of failure and the dedication to teammates and winning. They’re all just better than the rest of us at that. It might be something in their DNA, it may be teachable, I don’t know. But they approach everything with the intent to win.
I think the point is, that very few people in the world, Spec Ops included, is not Jason Bourne.
That doesn’t mean, these individuals aren’t special. Just that they are human, and very susceptible to physical damage…like every human is.
These React videos are awesome. Sean is a great storyteller. This channel should have a million subscribers.
Morning FNG academy, I'm enlisting in the National Guard and I'm considering trying for Special Forces after I've been in for a while and I want to thank you for your content and tips for Special Forces readiness and training tips
You can go in for it as well
AFAIK, your chances of getting into NG SF group without prior AD SF service are not great.
@@Krater84 its the same as any other 18x
@@tillmen4444 But you can only go 18x on your first contact, no?
@@Krater84 if you're civilian or if you are previously another branch
yall should do The Raid: Redemption, classic swat/martial arts movie
You gotta do "Where Eagles Dare!" with Clint Eastwood and Richard Burton.
Denzel for the President 2024. And BTW, as a born and raised (older) Finn, we used honey to seal and sterilize wounds when I was growing up. You're welcome!
hahahaha
if my rich friend fed me a bowl of water.......!!
Dan...brazilian.....bilbo baggins....babayega....
that was hilarious dude!
cheers guys, from an actual brazilian!
there is a 2nd equalizer and this september the 3rd is coming out! this series is a masterpiece! you need to watch every detail to enjoy and understand the movie! also watch the behind the scenes of the makings of the movie! it's so amazing.
Man On Fire!!!!
The reporter in that movie was the character from Total Recall who fought Sharon Stone.
What's interesting is that, in the making of the equalizer movie. Denzel's stunt coordinator aka trainer is a navy SEAL
Denzel Washington isn't a polished or flashy assassin in the Equalizer movies, he's ruthless.
Best example of what sean was talking about @ 10:30 is daredevil season 1 hallway fight scene. Fighting multiple people he had to keep hitting them to keep then down while getting tired and having people rush him at the same time.
Love you guys man, thank you for your service
You guys should do The Punisher series. Or specifically the backstory scene of his mission overseas in episode 3 season 1
Lol i can see the smirk on Tim's face "challenge accepted." Dude is awesomely nuts.
New tag line "I hate soup" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I got lucky and watched this movie alot when it cycled onto the movie channels, loved it and I noticed that being his only gunshot fired as well. From what I saw, he had nothing against guns at all, just looks like he improvised alot. You actually see him try to take the HK off one of Teddy's mooks in the final fight in the store but Teddy shoots him. The series it's based off actually did a sorta of thing where new guns were brought in constantly, including stuff that was borderline bleeding edge at the time like the SPAS-12, Desert Eagle, and more.
I love them both. I'd argue Equalizer is more grounded in reality than John Wick. Also, Equalizer is more about one man helping helpless people. John Wick is just out for vengeance. Equalizer is an amazing movie!!! Can't wait for part 2!!!
The fact that Keanu Reeves actually trained with Taran Butler and didn’t look like Steven Seagal shooting people was a big factor… and then all the custom TTI guns in the Sequels.
Taran made out big, too… $2500 for Glocks and $7000+ for the 2011s
Here in Germany we still use Honey for everything like our ancestors 1000 years ago
Actually, The Equalizer did really well at the box office, followed by 2 sequels.
The Man From Nowhere came out in 2010 and it is epic.
The Koreans know how to do it.
Unrelated to this specific video, but I swear I remember a video where Buck talks a little about sere and dogs.
Memory is fuzzy, but I believe he was critiquing how some show/movie tried to escape a k9 search party.
Something along the lines of moving in a flower pattern to confuse/frustrate the handler. Does anybody remember what video that might be?
Just watched the Contractor trailer and 1st scene, they're all eating soup!
The first equalizer made more Monday than the first John wick. Both great movies
They are eating consommé. It is a labor intensive broth with tons of flavor. Probably just to appear fancy and French.
Nice review but there was so many scenes that were definitely worthy of being reviewed! Like when mccall breaks a guys neck with his book, or when he disarms the two corrupt police officers, or when mccall fights tate fletchers character which proves difficult. Those would have been great to review!
Equalizer 1 reminds me of Taken
They missed their chance to bring both films together. Liam and Denzel’s characters are both retired CIA operatives and in their first films, they take down sex rings
Yeah, they teach you this in officer school, there are different courses during a "fancy dinner."
Antibacterial = Antibiotic XD Love you guys, but that was funny.
The call girl played hit girl in “kick ass”
The other girl that got choked out was in Denzel's "Magnificent Seven" remake...
Anton fuquar's take is the lead character is Mike Myers !
They used to use boiled sugar too, it makes a barrier to keep oxygen from bacteria. I read a Book called Bush Medicine that talks about it . I think it was written by a missionary Doctor in Africa, and you have to change the sugar pretty often.
I think many of us r in awe of the mental game it takes to get to these units...not necessarily that we believe there r superhero qualities, physically, but damn the fortitude it takes to get thru training and then have combat experience..anyway, just my dummie 2 cents. Fuckin love this channel 🤘🤘🤘
100% i feel the same with the soup.... who the hell will smile with this water?!😂😂😂😂❤ i am german korean and we eat big fat stews throwing meat like hell into it. Bringing me a soup like that when you though i was dead is like they wish me i would be dead. Eating hot water and smiling like something is going on 😂😂
The Equalizer was an American TV show with a white British actor as the lead.
after buck said John wick is realistic the jump out scene from the building onto the car in 4 played in my head😂
Danzel won an Academy award for Glory, which is a hell of a movie and review Gettysburg which is a intense movie about the battle that would have changed the civil war
Yea Honey works as well as tree sap
I'm aware this is 9 mos ago....but if you like shows that teach....'Burn Notice' is pretty awesome!
Have you lot did the movie “Nobody?”
I am surprised that they didn't know about the honey since they had survival training and stuff. It's common knowledge where I come from.
Hey FNG Green Beret fellows? He did use another "G.U.N.", A Nail-G.U.N. is a g.u.n. But hey, that's just me. Cheers to ya Mates. The "Guy" (Marton Csokas) was something like, Ex-K.G.B. or at least former F.S.B. and he not "Psychic", just eat-up-with suspicion.
The equalizer was a TV show way before the movie with an English actor way before Queen Latifah did it now
FNG Academy is the best
Man on Fire
21:20 Everybody knows it's Dan Ballsackian
Sean talking about the "caldo de pollo".. Definitely invited to the Carne asada 🎉
Equalizer 3 is coming out soon too isn’t it?
scheduled for 9/1/23
Funny enough, The Equalizer was actually pretty successful. It made more money than John Wick 1 did, and the 3rd movie is coming out this year. The 2nd one in the series is also really good. Not sure why the franchise isn't talked about more but it does seem to be gaining more popularity lately I've noticed. John Wick's action scenes and gunfu was pretty damn popular though. Still is really, and you can tell it inspired a lot of other movies down the line. The Equalizer, while good, didn't really revolutionize the action genre quite like John Wick did.
Would love to see your take on The Way of the Gun.
29:51 he knows some German?! LOL
Waaahhh. I am watching Resident Evil: Death Island.
Jill uses a gun and flashlight like you guys recommend. Move around in the dark and only ocassionally flashing it then putting it off again.
Your videos are educational
18:15 He's right. But then again, on 9/11 there was a rental car at the Boston airport with a suitcase of the suspected ringleader Mohammed Atta. For unknown reasons, the suitcase had not been loaded onto the plane. It contained Atta's will, a Koran, and videotapes with Boeing flight instructions, and apart from a single former high-ranking intelligence official nobody thought this found was too on the nose. 😬
I scored a 317 on my pt test back in 2012. 19 years old I played football in high school made that possible
Love the equalizer flicks. Looking forward to the third. Hey have you guys done an episode about the movie the guardian?
A movie in the same vein as this but with more guns is the accountant with Ben Affleck
Is there a way to pre order your book "better broken"?
Tait Fletcher plays Paz Vizla in the Mandalorian
really?! what a great show
Those damn drills
The flexibility and intensity of Filipino Martial Arts, right there in the Russian Boss' office fight.
Try Dirty Bastard made by Founders, Excellent!
You know what else "slid by"? Apocalypse Now!
There should be a requirement for any action movie made, that Bilzerian has to have a Cameo.
Real good
The equalizer is a massive franchise. What are you guys talking about?
You guys should do the Mission Impossible series
Comparing this to wick should be treasonous 😂
Can you do a video breakdown of Leon The Professional? I watching that movie 2 days ago on Netflix.
As a british person 7:37 that was top tier😭😂👏🏾
The honey is used to cauterize the wound
Based on tv series with Edward Woodward.
