    The character of McCall is based on a TV character in a 1980s action show also called The Equalizer,starring Edward Woodward ( The 1973 Wicker Man and Tom Weaver from Hot Fuzz)

It’s big, dumb, loud and irritating with all the jump cuts and camera trickery that cements it to a time and certain set of directors. It’s a movie that HAS NOT aged well.

    This movie and its sequel often get overshadowed by other action franchises like John Wick and Jason Bourne, but this is actually my personal favorite - it's so cool and grounded, and Denzel is just so freaking badass. I could watch him deal out justice all day long.
    Keanu Reeves played a serial killer in the movie The Watcher. (He later said that he didn't want to do the movie, and only did so because he was forced to by a studio contract.) Regarding Bill Pullman, if you want to see how much range he has, check out a creepy, messed-up little horror flick called Surveillance. Fair warning, it was made by Jennifer Lynch, daughter of David Lynch, and it's not a movie for the faint of heart.

    I remember this movie getting very mixed reviews, critics calling it a relic or violence porn and not being suited for modern audiences. Seems I'm not a modern viewer, I really like it. And I don't remember having ever seen a bad movie with Denzel Washington. He's just a great actor.

      The critics and audiences are correct. It's cheap, predictable revenge porn. Part 2 was just as terrible.... So, sorry... He HAS been in bad movies. In fact, he hasn't been in a good one since Flight... that was 11 years ago.

    17:16 when you guys were talking about the gestures to her face and now they aren't violent, but threatening. I found the best comparison in my head was being threatened with an elastic band. It's almost like his tiny pushes and gestures are more about constantly putting her right on the edge, that edge being actually beating her. Like the elastic band, the threat of being hit with it is sometimes worse than actually being hit, from a physiological point of view at least.

    If you want to see Keanu Reeves play a bad guy, then you should watch Sam Raimi’s movie called “The Gift” or the movie “The Watcher,” Keanu can definitely play a bad guy… 😃
    Love this movie soooo much, great reaction, love Equalizer 1 and 2, you gotta watch “Man on Fire,” “Training Day,” “Book of Eli,” “Deja Vu” all great and amazing movies with Denzel, and of course “Equalizer 2” and when “Equalizer 3” when it finally comes out, can’t wait for the 3rd “Equalizer” to hit the theaters…

My great grandfather Gaetano Santarpio also started the oldest pizza shop in East Boston MA back in 1903 called Santarpio's pizzeria! Still family run! The house I live in now is his his daughter's house my grandmother Elvira Santarpio . She passed away in 2016. If you guys ever come to Boston I'll take u guys! Some of his movies I would recommend is The Book of Eli, American Gangster is a BIG must, Training Day, The Magnificent Seven, Unstoppable, and The Taking of Pelham 123. Man on Fire, 2 Guns, The Siege, Crimson Tide, Flight, and Safe House are all great. He's great in every movie though so this is a tough one. Definitely American Gangster should be next though.

    This started as an 80's TV series, McCall was a retired CIA agent, who decides to spend his later yrs helping civilians (a bit like the A Team) who need help. Was also made as a film that strung multiple episodes together.
    This was the first time the character was seen in a full film, but it doesn't give as much of a backstory to him for the films.
    There's also a current TV series with Queen Latifa as Robin McCall (a female version of the character).

    Despite his spot on Eastern European accent, Marton Csokas (the actor playing Teddy the Regulator) is actually from New Zealand and normally speaks with that accent.

    Honey is one of the best natural antibiotics ever. Bacteria just doesn't grow in it. Smearing boiled honey on cuts and scrapes to keep them from getting infected is a technique that is thousands of years old. And it works.

    Honey has been used for centuries as a topical antibacterial for dressings and for battlefield wounds. It's not only good for wound care but it can actively increase the speed of healing. If you boil it before applying it, you are even less likely to have any potentiality for infection or contamination.
    The timing and the thing with the door and everything else is obsessive compulsive disorder, honed to a T by his operational experience.
    If you want a really awesome movie The Mechanic with Jason Statham. Man on fire with Denzel is also absolutely worth a watch. I don't think I've seen a Denzel movie I didn't thoroughly enjoy.

    There are too many great Denzel movies and he has too much range and has been working too long to pick one.
    "Training Day" is a classic. "Unstoppable" is kind of a sleeper, but I think the last Tony Scott movie, and just amazing. "Glory" was, I think, his "prestige movie" in the 90s. "Philadelphia", classic. "Malcom X", classic and maybe the role that made him a big time movie star. "Remember the Titans", classic sports movie.
    There's just a handful of people that have the kind of career he has.

    The original 1980’s TV show was along the lines of “what if an old James Bond retired and dedicated his spare time to helping out regular people in need. Which was awesome. He “equalised” the power dynamic between the downtrodden and the bad guys. It was clear that he was ex-MI5.

    So Denzel Washington and I are from the same town in New York. It's call Mount Vernon, and we as Mount Vernon natives. Hold this man very high. He always represents us in the right sense. He never forgets where he came from. That's something that we hold very high with him. We have a lot of celebrities that are from our town. But none as big as he is, we have athletes musicians t. V hosts several other movie stars. But Denzel, he has never forgotten where he came from. If you call out a street from mount vernon, he will point you out and say I remember that's just the type of guy he is. Now this movie the equalizer is actually based off event. Classic TV show from the 1980s. I used to watch with my father. The difference with the robber McCall, there was. He was a former am I 6 agent. He was British and he did the same kind of things he did in this movie cept. It was in New York City, not Boston. He would help the little people, those that the police couldn't help. He would use his special skills to help those who we're basically kind of thrown out by the police because they didn't have enough evidence to help him. It was a good show. I do suggest you guys too, maybe. Check out AA few episodes there. A few episodes on RUclips you could check out but it was a good show. It was a show that I liked my father really loved it. I used to watch you with him as a kid. Cause I'm a child at the 80s, so yeah, very good show and I hope. That you watched the sequels. There are 2 sequels. I'll keep looking through your library

    23:35 I actually know a comedy similar to what you were describing. The Wrong Guy from 1995. An office worker threatens his boss and, later goes back to confront the boss at the boss's office and finds the boss murdered. He flees town, thinking he's a suspect. However, the police have the security footage, showing the real murderer. Both the office worker and the killer end up going to the same places on accident, with the killer thinking the office worker is some secret agent tracking him down, when the office worker literally doesn't even realize he keeps bumping into the same guy.
