John Wick has had an incredible triumph on the big screen and a Wave of action films started, who tried to copy the concept. But it wasn’t just John Wick that was released in cinemas in 2014. The Equalizer series, which has become major Wick competition, also has its origins here.
In The Equalizer films, Denzel Washington takes on the role of Former agent Robert McCall, who has not lost his sense of justice even in retirement. Meanwhile, he takes the law into his own hands, which makes for some very brutal action. On Sunday you can watch the whole thing in The Equalizer 2.
Tough John Wick competition on TV: Denzel Washington cleans up as the equalizer
In the second part of the action series, McCall ended up in Massachusetts. Here he is staying in a modest apartment complex. During the day he works as a Lyft driver without attracting much attention. At night he unpacks the weapons and takes revenge for all the people who are unable to do it themselves.
