This is a great hour and 49 minutes of action film.

Finally, on the series’ supposedly last outing, one of its films lives up to the ever-deepening talent of its leading man. Equalizer 3 adds nothing new to the thriller genre, true, but it wisely acknowledges what’s worked well before.

The film is exactly what I wanted. A bad ass Denzel, between laps sitting in restaurants and cafe's doing his awesome Denzel thing. No need to change the formula, no need for a complex or innovative script. The franchise knows what it is and keeps it that way. Three good movies with a satisfying end, not many franchises manage to deliver that.

This was just perfect, masterfully done. Three movies in, and somehow it managed to feel just as fresh and gripping as the first one.

With everything a little bigger and the film significantly more beautiful — the wonderful Robert Richardson (‘Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood,’ ‘Casino’) behind the camera — the stakes feel worthy of their larger-than-life star.

The overarching plot of the film is pretty boilerplate, but the fine details count for a lot.

The Equalizer 3 is about as good as the first film – it neatly counterbalances Fuqua’s baroque, blood-and-guts action with Washington’s ability to command attention while sitting perfectly still.

Good looks and brutal action can’t hide the fact that the film traffics in Italian stereotypes with the same impunity as simplistic notions of good and evil.

Bettter than two, but not a patch on the first one. Watchable generic action movie with a really good actor who seems wasted on this average so, so script.

Its good but not better than the previous ones. Denzel Washington is a treat to watch.

Metacritic won't let you write a review in less than 75 characters. If it wasn't for that, I would have just written: cliché from the beginning to the very end.

Much bloodier and more violent than the first two Equalizers. I would not recommend this movie at all.
