McCall believes he has put his mysterious past behind him and dedicated himself to beginning a new, quiet life. But when he meets Teri, a young girl under the control of ultra-violent Russian gangsters, he can't stand idly by – he has to help her. Armed with hidden skills that allow him to serve vengeance against anyone who would brutalize the helpless, McCall comes out of his self-imposed retirement and finds his desire for justice reawakened. If someone has a problem, if the odds are stacked against them, if they have nowhere else to turn, McCall will help. He is The Equalizer.
Enjoyable but the story has issues. The Russian villains and Denzel 'saving' a young hooker is played out. The whole timing of everything and OCD like qualities of the protagonist don't feature much near the end of the story. And there are times when Denzel is one on one with the villain where he would just get popped in real life.
