Who doesn’t love Denzel Washington right. We all do and here he teams up again with director Antoine Fuqua once again as Robert McCall in the third film of this series.

This time they head to Italy where McCall goes to “find peace”. It isn’t long till the mafia shows up with one of the best looking mafiaoso’s I’ve ever seen in Marco (Andrea Dodero), & his brother Vincent (Andrea Scarduzio), but they are there to make life messy for this little Italian town.

Equalizer 3 isn’t an overly original story and while Denzel tries his best to keep this formulaic film from completely failing..he succeeds at that, but not much more. Dakota Fanning is thrown in as Emma Collins a CIA agent – but her story thread is barely noticed.

Mind you the violence is high so be prepared for that. I wanted so much more than what I got, but it wasn’t terrible as is sure to entertain some.
