    As I was watching this movie I was trying to think what it reminded me of... cross between WWF and a very bad Jean-Claude Van-dam movie. Wait for DVD if you really must see it otherwise don't waste your time. I'll, give it a 2 as I enjoyed the popcorn.

    I thought this was a excellent movie and I loved the way the bad guys got what they deserved. Denzel Washington was great.

    Did not enjoy this movie for the extreme violence and bloodshed which was way over the top. The other reason was for the language -- the F bomb does not add anything and iIs it really necessary to use it five or six times in a sentence. This movie should have been rated R.

    The Equalizer had a twisted plot, if you're into right-wrong type movies. Very black and white. Overall the movie was extremely too long and the plot was not well stated. They could've removed a few scenes and the movie would've been better. In my opinion, I would only see this movie if you're willing to sit through 3 hours.

    I thought this movie was pretty good. Took it's time developing the characters in the beginning rather than just jumping into action and revenge killings. In some ways it reminded me of another Denzel movie, Man on Fire, except the directing was a little less 'jumpy' in this one. And, like all the other reviewers already said, Denzel is great in this role...so likeable and yet so deadly!

    Edward Woodward would spin I his grave if he was alive today, and saw this garbage. Washington should donate his earnings to a local charity as penance. Will never be in B&Q. again.

    First, it should have been rated 18 A for content & violence. Second, the violence was more than needed. Didn't enjoy it much for these reasons, which weren't indicated through trailer etc.

    I LOVED this movie! I don't understand about previous reviews saying it was slow. The beginning. There was 'some' set up time but I didn't feel it was long or boring. Denzel was AWESOME and this movie had all the elements I enjoy in a movie. It was a bit gory but the action and characters were great. I'll buy it when it's out as it's a movie I could watch over and over.
