8.5/10 for The Equalizer.
Agreed regarding the "implied" killing... especially in the scene where:
...personally, I think that whole scene was either A) not necessary, or B) should have showed how Washington's character found the guy and got the item back.
Otherwise, it was a lot better than I expected, sort of like a superhero movie meets the "Taken" trilogy. Though I do wonder how many movies it will take for the "retired black ops middle-aged dude just trying to live a normal life but gets pulled back into a situation where his dangerous skill set must be used to save the day" to jump the shark.
I PopcornTimed this movie, wish I paid for it instead of The Gambler which I found to be pretty terrible. 5/10.... hard to follow, no real character background, character is hard to relate to, love interest makes no sense, personally I found the movie was all over the place.
