I love Denzel Washington movies so I was definitely going to see this at some point. Also the fact that he is working together with the same director of Training Day is awesome. Although I didn't know Antoine Fuqua made that horrible King Arthur movie from 2004. He still makes up for it with other really good films. This categorizes as one of those really good films. Denzel really holds it all tog... read more

Well, to be honest, I was amazed by how underwhelming the damned thing actually turned out to be. I mean, sure, it was well made and Denzel Washington was, as usual, quite charismatic but I just really struggled to get into this story and I thoug... read more

"It's one of those "I'm the real m-fucker deal, I can do anything and kill anyone whenever I want" kind of movies, so it's very cliché. 21/03/20."

A Complete Review of Antoine Fuqua's work (12 movies items)

" Cast : Denzel Washington, Chloë Grace Moretz, Haley Bennett, Bill Pullman, Melissa Leo What was it about? A man believes he has put his mysterious past behind him and has dedicated himself to beginning a new, quiet life. But when he meets a young girl under the control of ultra-violent Russian gangsters, he can't stand idly by - he has to help her. My two cents: Since this movie was fairly successful at the box-office, I was quite eager to check it out. Well, to be honest, I was amazed by"

" Cool, cool, cool. Man, I went into this thinking "Oh, another Denzel movie where he's all badass and shit." But it was...and in the best way. I can't even put my finger on what was different, but the suspense was...suspenseful. I was actually on the edge of my seat. It was more entertaining than just knowing what's going to happen next."
