    The emptiness in Denzel’s eyes when he asked “what do you see when you look at me?” Is perfect, it depicts a calmness much like before the storm. Just like the calmness a calculated killer possesses before taking a life. It speaks volumes to the hopelessness to resist, because death is absolutely certain like the destruction following a storm.

    I still can't believe Denzel doesn't have a case full of Oscars. One of the best actors ever. This scene is so brilliant. Both these actors gave their best performance here. Nicolai knows he's a psychopath and wants to show his detachment and control. Asking him what he sees. Robert just smiles and tells him his own backstory in detail just to show him he knows him all too well. And then turns the tables on him by asking him what he sees. Because he knows that the psychopath in front of him can not read his face at all. Basically saying; you don't know what to expect from me. That's when Nicolai gets flustered. He can't see anything there, because there is nothing there.

Everyone was in the moment, eyes and ears focused on those two actors and nothing else. Watching the movie for the first time, there's no time to savor the scene because Denzel was going to do something else that was riveting. Its why clips like this are great because it gives us a chance to admire everything about the scene.

When the boy had bad punctuation, incorrect grammar, Mr Anderson showed him compassion and love. It was a miracle.

Said man then proceeds to nonchalantly, go through your life story in third person, telling you about your exact childhood feelings and reasons why you killed your foster parents when nobody else had even thought of the possibility of it. Then the very same man gives you a chance to stop with what you’re doing like you should be grateful that you’re still breathing. That’s what made Nikolai shook.

It was recognition that he underestimated Mccall and now he fully realizes who he's dealing with and he will now deal with threat accordingly. Teddy is a psychopath who has seen and done a lot of evil and violence. That kind of person does not scare from words or a look. Its recognition of a worthy adversary.
