Critics Consensus

Another entertaining outing from Antoine Fuqua and Denzel Washington, The Equalizer 3 mostly makes up for its formulaic story with generous helpings of cathartic action.

If it's not broke, then don't fix it. They haven't fixed it in 40 years, and they didn't fix it in this movie, either.

Newsday

“The Equalizer” films have always been junk; they’re based on a mid-1980s TV show that was no great shakes to begin with. What did Washington ever see in them?

Rated: 1.5/4

Denzel seems to be sleepwalking through every scene that doesn’t involve gouging and/or stabbing.

Crum on Showbiz

The production looks good with spot-on cinematography by Robert Richardson, and an effective heartbeat score by Marcelo Zarvos.

Rated: B+

Decider

Bluntly put, it’s a snooze, and we’re left with the nagging feeling that it should be considerably more engaging, and make better use of its extraordinary star.

A movie that knows what it is and what its strengths are, even if it is often limited by its director.
