The first chapter of Denzel Washington's $500 million action trilogy is streaming on Netflix now
"The Equalizer" isn't Denzel Washington's best action movie performance, but it's pure "action-star Denzel." If you love a gnarly "John Wick" style kill, it's a must-watch while it's streaming on Netflix.
The first chapter of Denzel Washington's $500 million action trilogy, The Equalizer (2014), has launched on Netflix. The film, a reboot of an 1980s TV series, features Washington as a retired Marine and former DIA officer who becomes a one-man army, using unconventional weapons like nail guns and corkscrews to take down bad guys.
While the plot is thin and lacks a compelling story, the action sequences are well-executed and worth watching for fans of the genre. Washington's performance, as always, is the standout aspect of the film, making it worth checking out while it's available on Netflix.
