The first one was pretty good but you’re 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 “so bad it’s good” kind of way.
You’re 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 was…okay. 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 kinda…meh.
