The world is full of so-called "men" like you, and, in a perfect world, everything we do comes with a price, but this ain't a perfect world. People do bad things. If you're lucky, you get a chance to set it right, but most of the time it goes unpunished. This ain't one of them times. The mistake you made was you killed my friend. So, I'm gonna kill each and every one of you, and the only disappointment in it for me is that I only get to do it once." I love that little monologue.

What's really poignant to me is that Robert tries so hard to compensate for the bad things he did in his life but the darkness still manages to peek through. He met the guy's wife and daughters and still had no qualms about killing Pedro Pascal's character despite knowing that he'd be rendering those girls fatherless.

Listen, I loved the original tv series with Edward Woodward. Even more, I am a fan of these movies. Denzel takes this character and brings a complicated heart to it. Part hardened and business-like, part caring/mentor/helper, part broken deep inside. The biggest two regrets are that even though I am hyped for #3, it points out the finite nature of this character in the movies, and that saddens me. My second regret is that he couldn’t kill those guys twice.

EQ2. Another kick-a** sequel. It just never ceases to amaze in having one of the great actors of all time in a well-honed action thriller. I liked how this one was a little more closer, more personal for McCall. Betrayal has a way of bringing out the worse in people. But you don't just think that with McCall, you'll get away with it. Ever better action sequences. The car fight and the battle in the storm were awesome. Outgrossed the first installment and became Denzel's highest grossing film ever. EQ3 as an final chapter looks to be even more epic.

The POV of his rediscovery of self. The first movie externalizes the equalization: the typical trope of leveling the field for the little guy. This movie is the leveling of the field within, finding pieces of himself he hadn't yet fully processed. The elimination of his old team, even Melissa's character, was the step by step erasure of the worst parts of his past. Really enjoyed this movie. And, while I'm 100% all for a John Wick, Atomic Blonde, and Equalizer crossover (an Expendables with actual depth and character, god forbid)... I'll also be perfectly fine with 3 being the end of everything. No doubt he'll finally meet his actual match, the equalization will take place from there. It's been nice for the 1st to have leaned light, the 2nd leaned dark. The psychosomatic pulley system they're going to have to use for #3 is going to be so, so good.

Yeah they showed the guy who had his neck twisted holding his neck in pain in the next shot. I do wish they had chosen different choreography against that guy, because in Hollywood logic neck twists/snaps typically = death, including just early in this movie. While I'm sure Robert could choose to only incapacitate people with neck twists in this universe, it makes it a bit unclear in a quick fight scene like that. I completely see why Greg and Coy thought he killed them.

Excellent reactions and insights! I am definitely not in the 2.5% commenters that asked you to “talk less.” So many things to ponder. A small one that really struck me was how the character of his wife is revealed: her glowing smile in the portrait, her cheerful Cape Cod bakery, the companionable chairs looking out to sea. Then you have to imagine how they balanced each other and how her loss sent him into self-exile and coldness. Here he had Miles sit in that chair with him for a while, mindfully put his wedding ring on his other hand, and is back home. He is open in a way he hasn’t been since her death. At the same time, he has finished the list of books. From what we saw of them, they were all about self-reclaiming, finding a life purpose, other things he needed to understand to be able to move on to something positive. Like you, I LOVED the whole subplot with Miles. The reveal of Miles’ glorious, sunny, hope-filled wall painting, his new confidence, all believable and so well done. It’s a balance to the darkness in the story. By the way, I don’t think he killed all the abusers in that early scene as a Lyft driver. I think he hurt them and broke limbs, but he knows the fine line before bringing death. If one really was close to killing him, he might have killed that one in a self-defensive reflex, but most I believe he left alive with a lesson learned.

33:32 Miles has a phone for gosh sakes. He could be watching REEL REJECTS for at least 3 to 4hrs.😂

I loved it when Denzel says in this movie “Its equalizing time”

A lot of people don't know who Antoine Fuqua is, but he is an incredible writer/director. The perfect blend of action, violence, and emotion makes him one of the best. If anyone is interested in more from him, watch Training Day and End of Watch.

The film was fun to watch and tapped into a fuller deeper range that is meant to be immersive and interactive like VR or a video game without the actually VR visuals and game. This film was clearly meant to be felt like his autobiography. The audience is meant to understand the emotion of his training, past, psychology and being with him. It was a personal thriller while WIck is mostly a fantasy escape.

It’s funny when the actor who picked miles seen denzel at an award ceremony he said “I’ll be working with you” and denzel replied with “alright I’ll see you at work” 😂 the most denzel response possible

I lived in that neighborhood for 28 years and while they filmed this, everyday was mostly sunny the editing in this is very good, if you want to see what it normally looks like not drying a movie look up Brant Rock Massachusetts, Esplanade that’s where these final scenes were filmed. I met Denzel he’s a super good dude

The kid from American saga on a red carpet he actually met Denzel on that carpet and he talked to him and he told Denzel that they were gonna be working together real soon then boom they are working together for the first time in equalizer 2 fucking amazing 🔥🔥🔥

I really enjoyed this reaction! I loved the atmosphere in this film - the weather build-up worked really well. My favourite scene was the villain reveal in the kitchen followed by Denzel's character using Dave's family as cover to leave safely. Brilliant stuff. As a big fan of your reactions, I'd like to recommend The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. It would be such a fun and interesting film to react to because it has Nic Cage playing himself, plus Pedro playing a VERY different role to what we're used to!

I remember I watched this before the first one. Loved that they work really well as stand-alone movies but the stuff in the 2nd hit a lot harder after watching the first.

This is based on an old 1980s tv show. In that show, Robert is a 60 year old retired MI-6 agent who didn't do a lot of mustle feats but out thought the bad guys.
