Sams K Badass, a bit unrealistic but who f*cking cares. Washing gives a stunning performance! It's really good and entertaining. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/10/24 Full Review Jordy M McCall, a sinister man with habits bordering on perfectionism, often has tea at a restaurant, where he meets a young woman named Teri. Each night, she dresses differently, until one evening they have a deeper conversation about dreams and aspirations. However, everything changes when a man beats her and drags her into a car. Shortly after, she ends up in a hospital. McCall then tracks down the man and kills him along with his entire crew. This sets off a chain of events, leading to the arrival of Teddy, a Russian hitman who seeks revenge. Teddy’s arrival triggers a series of violent events, including the murder of Mandy, McCall turning in Masters and exposing the entire Russian mafia, along with their money and financial dealings. In the end, Teddy takes over McCall’s workplace in an attempt to kill him, but his plan backfires, and McCall eliminates all of them. In short, this film stands out solely for the work of the cinematographer, who—at times—delivers shots with excellent composition, though some close-ups are completely unnecessary. The performances of Denzel and Chloë are dreadful, the premise itself is clichéd, the plot lacks any complexity, the pacing is uneven, and the conclusion is unsatisfying. Overall, it's a disappointing film, though nothing more should have been expected. After all, it's just another action movie that prides itself on portraying a soldier who kills with visceral precision, without blinking—but that's all it has to offer. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/06/24 Full Review Jason Loves W First time I go to watch this movie and I didn't know any details of the movie or expect something just want to see Denzel Washington after watching this movie it surprisedly very good action-thriller movie. This movie is slow burn but when the climax come the runtime doesn't matter. I enjoy watching Robert McCall go to kill Russian gangster. Denzel look awesome in this role. He brings new badass action hero similar beside Liam Neeson's Taken and Keanu Reeves's John Wick films. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/26/24 Full Review Audience Member Denzel’s gravitas and acting is what this movie allows to shine through everything else.

I will watch it again later.Also, I really like the small details of the movie. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/17/24 Full Review Bumble B Absolutely phenomenal! From filmography/cinematography to the chosen music *especially* the final gun scene with the suspense there is with not knowing when Robert (Denzel) will pop out to axe the bad guy. It's amazingly written and I like when he times himself or when you get a close up on how he deducts his next move. 10/10 I love watching it.
