The Equalizer was a show on TV between 1985-1989 set in New York with English actor Edward Woodward who was seen in Hot Fuzz as the Neighbourhood watch NWA years later after the show. Denzel did a good job as usual.

By all means Samantha needs to see "Man on Fire" (directed by the late Tony Scott ... Ridley Scott's brother) and "Inside Man", directed by Spike Lee). Both are great movies. Another Tony Scott / Denzel Washington collaboration that was mentioned is "Deja Vu" (a bit of sci-fi) and well worth watching and very underrated. The most unusual Denzel Washington movie that was also mentioned is, "Fallen", which gets into the dark realm of the supernatural. I've never seen a movie quite like it. Totally unique.

This is a great movie. You should watch Man on Fire with Denzel Washington

The differnce is the weight and gravity of Denzel's acting. He is magnetic.

If you want an excellent jumpscare movie, I HIGHLY recommend *Don't Breathe.* You'd never guess the wimp Ike from Tombstone could be so terrifying.

Denzel Washinton embodies every action movie trope in an awesome performance.

"You pray for rain, you gotta deal with the mud too" is one of the coldest lines in this movie or ANY movie ever.

An awesome movie...I never get tired of this one.

*Inside Man* was a great movie!! I've seen it too many times to count. *The Tragedy of Macbeth* (2021) with Denzel Washington and Frances McDormand, directed by Joel Coen, might be my favorite Denzel movie right now. It was beautiful and he was amazing in it.

The Equalizer and John Wick both released in 2014, and in 2012 Jack Reacher with Tom Cruise was released. All have a similar and brutal action feel to them, with a hint of a detective story throughout (John Wick the least on that front, but he's still finding his way through to the end goal).

Yes yes yes! Love that movie

This is the first movie series for Denzel. His first reappearing character.

The old series from the 80's with Edward Woodward was something the family and i used to watch together. These movies with Denzel are a solid adaptation even if they are more brutal for our desensitised 'modern' era.

Out of time; John Q; DeJavu; all exceptional!!

There was rolled up newspaper wedged on the wall that was used to start fires. The Equalizer is a modern take on an old TV show by the same name.

The scene with Denzel and Marton Csokas in the restaurant is acting of the highest order. Some of it not involving speaking, just facial expressions.

Denzel:”When you pray for rain, you gotta deal with the mud too.”

I loved that you never called the "Home Mart" store Home Depot even once by mistake like ALL the other channels have done. Good job paying attention 👍👏👊✌❤

"Deja Vu" is a really good sci-fi movie with Denzel. It's not mentioned all that often, but it's quite good.

Denzel is such a great actor with almost no bad films( I didn't care for Training Day but its still pretty good). A film I think is under rated but is so good with a cool concept, great cast and I think you will enjoy is Deja Vu from 2006.

Nobody is great. You two will definitely enjoy it. Some Denzel films I really like: Philadelphia; Crimson Tide; Flight; American Gangster.

So a positive note, I like to say this. Denzel Washington comes from the city of Mount Vernon, New York. It is the same city that I grew up in. He makes us very proud to represent the city of Mount Vernon, New York. He never takes for granted where he's from. He always represents the city. We have a lot of talent from the city of mount vernon in different genres, whether it's actors, musicians, professional athletes, but denzel stands above them all. He makes a so proud.

Easiest way to clean a blender, put a couple cups of hot water into it, a couple drops of dish soap, and let it run on high for 30 seconds or so. The entire bottom half and the blade assembly are now clean, just clean the sides a bit and then rinse it all out. No dis-assembly required.

Don't know if y'all caught this, but if you recall at the start, when they were trying to guess what Denzel's character used to do, he said he was a pip, then starts dancing. Now go to the climactic standoff, and when the music starts playing in the Home Mart, it is Gladys Knight and the Pips!

I loved the original tv series as a kid. This movie is how you do an adaptation of that tv series. I really recommend Man on Fire and Fallen -- both good Denzel movies. Book of Elie is also a must Denzel movie!

i remember when i first watched this movie, i knew denzel's character was going to be some dangerous and highly proficient person but that first scene where he kills slavi and his men completely shocked me. i remember being unprepared for the brutality and cold efficiency of the violence when seeing it. such a gratifying scene and it really establishes what the Equalizer is capable of for the rest of the movie.

Hell yeah, this was a pleasant surprise to watch after work lol these are like some of my favorite movies! Definitely check out Training Day (2001) with Denzel, was also made by the same director, Antoine Fuqua.

This series is based off an 80s TV show of the same name. Where each episode a retired secret operative (Robert McCall) helps people in need advertising his services in the newspaper, like we see Robert do at the end of this film.

This movie has a great line that i still use when i try to get better at something big in my life. “Its about progress, not perfection.”

My uncle's one criterion for action movies: Good killin'. "The Equalizer" passes the test.

Man on Fire is a MUST! Cant wait to see the baby Schmitt! 🎉🎉

23:45 “He didn’t come for help, he came for permission” Great line by Melissa Leo.

Just saw E3! It’s the best in the series! Great closer to a great series. Recommended Denzel films: - Training Day - Man On Fire - Malcolm X - American Gangster - Inside Man - Crimson Tide - Unstoppable - Hurricane - Book Of Eli - He got game -2 guns.

One look at the thumbnail reaction image and I knew what scene it was; man that barbwire setup was a slasher level kill This movie is like what if John Wick was Batman and Jason Voorhees

Your crimson tide reaction was awesome and it's still my favourite Denzel performance from his "younger days" 😂 but he has been consistently great over his career. In my opinion his absolute best performances have come in Training day and Fences and they showcase Oscar worthy acting but he's been in some wonderful movies over the years. Some of my favourites: Fallen Malcolm X Philadelphia Man on fire John Q The book of Eli The siege Roman j Israel esq

Even with the first scene Robert didn't have the gun in his hand, just directed it. It was a nice touch that he claimed to be a Pip and then played a Pip tune at the Hardware store to draw Teddy's response, Teddy had to have it checked out.

Great reaction, as always. Another of my favorite Denzel Washington movies is "Deja Vu," in which he plays a government agent trying to figure out who committed a terrorist act and discovers that the government has secretly invented time travel, and he can go back in time and stop the terrorist act from happening.

One thing I liked about Deja Vu, was that I thought 3 times what the ending of the movie was going to be, only to be shot down on each one along the way, ultimately, it wasn't any of them.

Ricochet is one of my favorite Denzel movies; it is WILD, it features John Lithgow in a god tier level over the top crazy villain role

If you want more Denzel, watch Man on Fire, which stars a young Dakota Fanning. Speaking of Fanning, she's going to be in the third one with Denzel.

Its my head cannon that The Equalizer, Nobody, and John Wick are all in the same cinematic universe. Also I'm voting Remember the Titans as your next Denzel movie.

I'm glad in your opening that you mentioned "NOBODY." If you liked this movie, you would like it as well.

Love this movie. Easily rewatchable

I really liked how easily Robert dispatched with the big bad in this film. It’s cool how as good as that guy was, it shows that Robert is just THAT good at what he does.

Nobody shares the same script writer as the first John Wick. They start with similarities but go off in different directions. So much fun.

You and Samantha have amazing reactions! Happy New Year!

Cool reaction as always Schmitt & Samantha, you both have a good night

"CRIMSON TIDE" w/ him and Gene Hackman is top tier Denzel in his prime!! Also, Training Day,Safe House,Book of Eli,Out of Time!!

I just thought of something...Sam's opening "hello" would be a fantastic meme! 😊 Also.. "Nobody" is def worth a watch...its a slightly different take on action. Denzel's "The Book of Eli" is a goodie to add to the list

Denzel elevates everything he's in. My favourite actor.
