The Equalizer 3 review – one in the eye for the mob – The Guardian
The mysterious vigilante Robert McCall (Denzel Washington) returns to precise but extra extravagantly bloody vengeance on an assortment of deserving dangerous guys. This time, for tenuous causes that aren’t made clear till the tip of the movie, he finds himself in Italy. Particularly, a small city on the coast of Sicily stuffed with smiling, totally first rate townsfolk, plus a gang of firebomb-happy mafia thugs. Eyeing the city as a possible location for his much-postponed retirement, McCall delves into his distinctive ability set and seemingly inexhaustible weapon stash to cope with the Camorra, whereas CIA agent Collins (Dakota Fanning) is available to tie up the unfastened ends.
With Antoine Fuqua as soon as once more within the director’s chair, and a violence-heralding musical motif on the rating that seems like an electrical guitar being butchered, it’s very a lot enterprise as typical within the third instalment of the Equalizer franchise: one that features rigidly black and white ethical delineations, decapitations and eye-socket trauma. However whereas there aren’t any surprises right here, there are visceral kicks to be discovered within the businesslike effectivity of McCall’s retribution, and the devilish glint in Washington’s eye as he delivers it.
