I guess if I were to put a number to this one, it's somewhere along the lines of "2," but for different reasons. This is a serviceable action flick, with a stunning locale and as likable of a Denzel as you'll expect to get. I think where I fall out of love with things is in the slow-burn towards the action that we end up getting, all of which doesn't really amount to anything we've already seen in this franchise to date. Nothing in either of the other two "Equalizer" flicks tops the hardware store climax from the first one and, unfortunately, this might also just happen to have the weakest final set piece of the three, too. Again, an enjoyable movie — with a fun "Man On Fire" reunion between Denzel and Dakota Fanning — just not the best I've seen from this IP. Expand

There is absolutely no reason for anyone to see this movie. The "equalizer' has 3 scenes of action, the rest, he's a wounded person and half the movie is in Italian. the story is convoluted and non-moving. It was a complete waste of time and money.

Loved it. Denzel in fine form. Very violent but in a good way. Enjoyed it on the big screen & looking forward to seeing it again.

Although The Equalizer 3 feels more violent than its predecessors, it also offers less violence than its predecessors. It takes nearly an hour before McCall starts taking names and kicking ass.

Impressively the threat he faces in this installment is supposed to be a massive mafia with enormous resources to pursue him and yet it all comes down to two confrontations in the entire film.

The climax feels so rushed that it barely gives you time to process it, and once it's all over, I couldn't help but wonder where the poignant emotional depth that this final chapter was supposed to bring to the character had disappeared to.

Yes, perhaps it's an ending, but it doesn't provide any real closure.

It’s solid-enough. Denzel does his charming Denzel thing, and a few of the kills are really creative. Does take a while to get going, but can’t say I was ever bored.

Natch, he quickly dispatches them all and calmly staggers away. Since he was wounded, he spends time recovering with a kindly doctor in a charming little seaside Italian village. Before long the local criminals emerge to terrify the locals, which he tolerates until he can't. While the brutal encounters are spread out, it's wonderful watching Washington enjoy this quiet life, while falling in love with the community. There are fewer fights than many current action flicks, but they're brutally effective. Director Antoine Fuqua has taken what could have been a by-the-numbers plot and expanded it to create a compelling character on top. Expand

I found it not fun to watch. I didn't expect the movie is mainly in Italian. Denzel's acting is excellent. The fights are too dominating and the opponents are too weak so it lacks the excitement. Also, killing all of them... is it good?

Equalizer 3

This final instalment in the Equalizer trilogy sees retired U.S. Marine and DIA officer Robert McCall defend a small coastal town from the Camorra (an Italian Mafia organisation).

Equalizer 3 doesn't boast an imaginative story but it's elevated by its action. The action is brutal and vicious. The locations are also picturesque. It's also great that the runtime doesn't extend long.

Denzel Washington gives a commanding and chilling performance. The supporting cast also delivers, but there's a nagging feeling that Dakota Fanning's character elicits; her character borderlines being unnecessary.

Although the ending is anticlimactic, Equalizer 3 is a delightful ending to this action trilogy.

6.5/10

CARISMA, SEGURIDAD Y COMEDIA

Esas son mis tres características favoritas de Robert McCall, que sin ser casualidad, también las tiene Denzel Washington. Y tendré otra razón más para llorar en mi cama desolado por la madrugada sabiendo que ésta es probablemente, si no está ya decidido, la última de este gran personaje que me pone los pelos de punta, ¿tan difícil es encontrar en todo este planeta a alguien cómo McCall? ¿Robert McCall vs John Wick?… Pues sí, no han habido tantas críticas buenas sobre esta trilogía, pienso que son buenísimas y que no bajan de nivel en ninguna de las tres pero sí que es verdad que la primera es la mejor. De acuerdo que puede parecer repetitivo pero fijémonos más allá del cliché y aprovechemos lo que sentimos por este personaje y sus historias: la manera en la que seduce la pantalla con sus rápidos y sigilosos movimientos además presenciar sus fantásticos momentos cómicos contra muchos de los villanos. Fuqua no nos muestra nada nuevo, quizá resulta hasta cansado después de tener series sobre este personaje anteriormente, la serie de los 80 y la nueva de 2021 con Queen Latifah, pero Fuqua consigue hacer que ésta última parte siga entreteniendo y mostrando a ese dulce asesino Robert McCall que para nada me fatiga dónde obvio que Denzel se vuelve a popularizar sobre la pantalla cómo tiene que ser. Me falta un poco más de desarrollo en el problema, que se hable más de esos mafiosos, y yo habría añadido algo sobre la investigación que hace el personaje de Dakota Fanning para descubrir quién es Robert. La escena de la explosión es de las mejores y la disfruté muchísimo, buenos efectos, momento inesperado e intrigante.
Aún así, todos hacen que la historia sea eficaz, saben lo que esperamos y nos lo dan. Falta destacar el gran trabajo musical de Zarvos, exquisito. De momento nada de ésta trilogía me ha decepcionado y me quedo más que satisfecho conociendo la época en la que estamos. RICARDO VALERO, SEPTIEMBRE 2023, ESPAÑA.

Very entertaining movie. I believe I counted over 100 headshots. Recommend to everyone who likes these kind of movies (Equalizer 1 and 2 or the John Wick movies).
