    I agree with Nick on this one. Although you can’t go wrong with anything “Denzel” this is my favourite. Dakota Fanning is another actor that never lets you down. The entire cast, as well as the story, was fantastic.

    “Forgiveness is between them and God. My job is to arrange the meeting.” -Creasy Bear Many thanks once again for the laughs and your reaction. I love a genuine smile and you guys are good. Keep on keeping on and Gritos from Tejas. P.S. “… a big sad bear” -Pita

    I commented on other reactions, and I’ll repeat it here: ANY actor could have played Creasy’s friend, but only Christopher Walken could play the “artistry” scene with Giancarlo Giannini the way Walken did… “Creasy’s art is death, and he’s about to paint his masterpiece…” - the tone, the nuance in his voice, the pinache - that is how it’s done, folks !

    Should check out Dakota Fanning and Sean Penn and Michelle Pfeiffer in the movie: “I AM SAM “ Sean plays a mentally challenged father who fights to keep his daughter, hires Michelle as a lawyer to help him..also has a great supporting cast to help him!!( one of the guys is Percy from the Green Mile, get to see him as a better person) DAKOTA is fantastic in it as always!!!

    One of my top 20 movies, I've probably watched it 40 times. "I'm gonna kill em, you kill them all", "Creasy's art is death, he's about to paint his master piece", "This is between them and god, Its just my job to arranging the meeting", "I wish I had more time" awesome quotes. I fully recommend watching the alternative ending

    The story is a redemption arc for Creasy. He spent most of his life killing people unjustly. Now though he is justified and after finding out she's still alive, he's sacrificing his life rather than just committing suicide. If you know about Catholicism which was a heavy theme in this movie then you know the important distinction between those two things in that belief system.

    Mama Jen, I like the way you think. At the end of the movie you were hoping he had explosives so he can take the head guy out. That would have been an epic ending. Also if you ever come to Vegas and you want to go to a rave let me know.

    I believe that there was an alternate ending where he does hide explosives on him and kills the remaining bad guys that way. I am not sure if it was ever filmed. Personally, I prefer the actual ending. Once he finds that Pita is alive, it stops being about revenge and becomes about rescuing her.

    Fantastic reaction video for this Masterpiece. Denzel Washington never disappoint anyone. He always delivered what his character feels. In this movie you got the feeling that he regrets what he done and drink to drive him self into suppression. (Just like Nathan Algren in The Last Samurai when he kept drinking to not remember what he ashamed of what he had done and both found a redemption while meeting new people and doing a job) Some interesting trivia about this movie: There were 2-3 love scenes between John Creasy and Lisa Ramos but they decided not to put it in the final cut of the movie or even in any post production cuts or director cut, they said it felt weird to the chain of the events some how however they were been shot many times. And you can see that's in some scenes from the tention between John and lisa when she told him that she took his Bible to keep her strong and who would thought she would read a Bible, and the kiss between them after that. And we see her spy on him talking with Pita once or twice. Again thanks to you for your reaction to this movie and i hope next movie would be also Denzel's movie which called Flight 2012 .. very very very fantastic movie and you will love it. This movie i considered the best. Best regards from Egypt, Momo the Fat Batman.

    Hey thanks for another stellar watch-along. Great movie. RIP Tony Scott. BTW, if you guys ever get a chance I'd love to see you do a reaction these two underrated movies: - Judgment Night (1993 movie with Emilio Estavez, Cuba Gooding Jr., and Dennis Leary about a bunch of friends avoiding some killers all night in run down early 90's Chicago.) - The Alamo (2004 historical film about the last stand during the Texas Revolution. Has Billy Bob Thorton, Dennis Quaid, Patrick Wilson, and Jason Patric. Pretty accurate flick.)

    There's no "reference" in Equalizer 3, it's actually a reunion. Dakota and Denzel appear on screen together for the first time since Man on Fire. That's not officially a spoiler, Dakota appears in the trailer and all the movie publicity focussed on this significant reunion, because it was 20 years between the two movies. That's all I'll say, other than I hope you enjoy it as much as I did 😊

    GREAT job on a GREAT GREAT movie. To me you inadvertently skipped what I feel is the biggest scene that explains Creasy & this GREAT movie. The scene is very easy to miss. here's the scene: After Creasy fails to kill himself, he's standing out in the pouring rain a completely & totally broken man. He's talking to his buddy Rayburn about the gun not firing. After the conversation, Creasy looks up and who's staring down looking over him like his guardian angel ?, Pita. Creasy is being paid to protect Pita, but it's actually Pita that is protecting Creasy. She's protecting him from himself. Everything changes after that moment for Creasy in this film. It's a brilliant twist.

That scene with Christopher Walken talking too Denzel Washington on the phone after Denzel tried to shoot himself is an Easter egg lowkey also or just coincidence.. cause Christopher Walken in Deer Hunter was a Russian roulette expert. He’d know how that would feel like more than anybody when Denzel decides to talk to him about it.
