"Alena, the girl you beat half to death, her life is going to go on. Yours is going to end here on this funky floor." EPIC. Denzel is my all time favorite actor. Hands down.
Absolutely true. He can play a heinous villain, or the greatest hero, be absolutely captivating, and deathly frightening... All in the same breath. Him, Kevin Spacey, Tom Hardy. Best actors
I just decided to watch this movie because it was on Amazon Prime. When this scene went down, I was totally surprised. It caught me off guard. Still one of the best movie fight scenes.
His performance in Crimson Tide was par excellence!!! And combine that with an equally powerful performance from Gene Hackman and one's brain starts to implode!!! Poignant film too... Given these disturbing times...
If I had a dinner guest it wouldn't be Denzel. He enjoys hurting people. Those bad guys are all damned to roast in Hell. No need to hurt them. They're already screwed and they sodomized themselves. Denzel likes gratuitous violence. Sorry. Denzel's character not Denzel the actor. Mustn't get confused by Hollwood. The den of iniquity and homosexuality is Hollywood. Robert Deniro Catholic, Martin Scorsece buddhist and Richard Gere the buddhist queer.
I love how the bad guy leader, at the start of the scene, has the world in his hand with his expensive car and arrogant walk and attitude. However, at the end of the scene he is lying on the floor dying and can't even get his eyes to focus clearly on DENZEL'S character. What a REVERSAL OF FORTUNE that was. Great scene.
I think he's always watchable. But after early 2000s he had this disappointing habbit of playing the same Denzel in most movies imo. In the 90# he would break out.
The fact that Denzel Washington ( Robert McCall ) gives his opponents a chance to speak Finnish and say what they have to say and give them a chance to make the right decision and walk away is just amazing. And also the fact that he wasn't hit once in this scene makes it one of the greatest fighting scenes in film history.
The symbolism of Denzel slowly and deliberately turning each of the skulls on the desk towards the three men as a foreshadowing of what's to come, is simply chilling and brilliant.
@Phil Dimotsantos I think maybe the word you were looking for was "foreshadowing", rather than "forboding." Or maybe "forewarning." "Foreboding" is something you feel inside of you. Moving the skulls is basically warning the Russians in advance, forewarning, that shit's about to get real. But it's "foreshadowing" for the audience, so we can be prepared for him to kick some serious ass. In other words: "Watch out." "Ass kicking coming."
@@deandreduckett4881 He's subtracting seconds between each opponents. He counted to 4 seconds before the fight and counted another 5 seconds when he took his time finishing that last guy.
The "Who are you?" question was a theme throughout the movie. Besides this scene, it was asked by one of the dirty Boston cops, by Teddy, the oligarch's lead henchman, and by the oligarch (Pushkin) himself. His response to Pushkin is classic: "Everybody wants to know."
One of my favorite bits in this scene is the part where Robert is constantly opening and closing the door, symbolizing his internal battle with himself. He wants to remain true to the promise he made to his late wife that he won't walk this violent path anymore, but these gangsters have proven themselves to be so despicable that he can't stand the thought of just letting them walk.
I felt it was to ritualistic to simply be an internal battle. too precise movements to be a struggle. I felt it was something like ocd. much like him counting the seconds of the encounter, adding up the time it actually took. it was all extremely methodical, and i thought the opening and the closing of the door was the same. very similar to people with ocd who do things like turn lights on and off 3 times before shutting them off completely.
@@johnmwalker8309 I think so too. Way too calm to be an internal battle. I guess it should symbolise the amount of times the door couldve opened and closed with each one of those gangsters leaving alive instead of how it then went on.
5:51 I love how he surveys the entire room in complete detail. The manner in which he calculates an estimate & calmly whispers to himself: "16 seconds." Afterward, the way he grades himself on how well he did. Cold, deliberate & detailed. That is freaking awesome!!
I don't think it's grading him in how well he did, I think he calculates how long it will take and then she's how long he was actually gone. Notice how the guy he killed with the corkscrews took about 9 seconds to actually die, so he subtracts that 9 seconds from the 28 seconds and comes up with the total of 19.
@@kyleringham8290 He could have killed him much faster but purposefully did it in way that made it slower and more painful which is why he subtracted the 9. If he was going off the time for them to all be dead he would still be counting because the main guy on the floor is still alive when he stops

Denzel is a Master of his craft... He plays every role he takes with unbelievable passion and authenticity... He has a personal moral code that extends beyond his personal life and he is a role model in so many ways. One of my favorite actors without question.
I was fortunate to see him live on Broadway NY. He really is the definition of professional. I kept thinking that his movie scenes probably just needed only the first take.
@@larryousman No. These scenes involve many, many people. Even the best actor could not expect literally everyone else to do every line and scene perfectly. Let alone avoiding making even small mistakes themselves. You might want to get from between Denzel's legs for a bit.
This is one of the greatest fight scenes in movie history. I always wondered if this could be done in real life. Denzel said it took a lot of training and shoots to get this scene perfect. This is one great movie!
There is no MMA or blood sport I ever heard of where one man takes of multiple opponents and beats them. This seems like the most popular theme I see in all these type of movies. It's like a woman taking on a trained man and winning, never happens in real life.
@@safffff1000 well if someone is just trained to kill then he can take down multiple people at times. Here Denzel is trained to kill and He's a kind of mercenary and capable of killing with a blink of an eye. You can't kill so many people during a long interval, it has to be a sudden burst of killing spree where your opponents don't even get the chance to react property. Efficient, fast and ruthless.
Just the way this scene builds up to the mayhem we know is about to unfold, the way the tension is built, then released, is masterful. That and how direct, simple, and powerful Denzel's moves are throughout makes it all the more vicious, and how he saved the bearded henchman for last to really make him suffer with those corkscrews...yikes. Denzel is a fantastic action movie lead and he is just golden.
Easily the best fighting scene of this type ever made. It's also the gratification, the whole build up to it makes anyone really hate these arrogant thugs, in our minds we see everyone who's ever treated us badly or wrong or arrogantly abused their power against us, it's primal, so when he unleashes it's one of the most gratifying scenes to watch, a pure angel of vengeance in all it's glory descending on the wicked.. It's really extraordinary, one of Antoine Fuqua's best scenes ever.
its pure refreshing to watch him in action , taking care of trash , like these guys , who thinks they know where they have him , when its the complete other way around . and their boss talks aboute being insulted by him , what aboute the girl they ONLY PLAYED with , look whos talking .
"love how he seeks weapons and studies the room before he strikes" yup, he notices a guy with a gun sitting in the corner and then walks to the center of the room, completely ignoring the guy with the gun😆 Another thing, why is this guy with guns get way to close to the him like if you have a gun stay away don't let him grab gun? And this happens many times in the movie. Slopwork.
Also u can use it counting system while storming to the enemy fronts, or leaving ur current position or while throwing a hand grenade it’s very effective and most of the special forces using this system for many situations
This was the last movie me and my dad watched together we watched all 3 but I put this one again Saturday and he passed away Monday he had bad stroke and wasn’t with it he had a few of them but he loved Denzel a lot and this series and all our shows we watched im 30 he was 81 I spent a lot of time taking care of him on hospice the last two years it was hard very hard but we kept him home and all these movies are going to be hard to watch now.
When a middle aged Denzel Washington is a believable super agent/assassin against a room filled with Russian Gangsters ... you know it's a well made movie.

This extended scene is great. Top notch acting by all. Such controlled violence by Denzels character. I even love how he times himself, predicts 16 seconds and hits 19 showing that he is a bit rusty even though it was completely effortless.
You can see the second he realises that the situation won't end peacefully. And the bit where he's working out his time is fantastic, the facial expression when he realised he was three seconds off of his time 😅
I love the effect starting at 8:36 making McCall's face blur to look like part of a skull from the POV of the dying mobster. It's very subtle and only lasts for 2 seconds, but the effect is pretty creepy.
"That girl is still child. Can still sell her as virgin. This makes her prime earner for a good while." So chilling. And to know so many women, children, and even some men are forced into this every day.
The other thing to think about is why there is unquenchable demand for this kind of thing. Things have not always been this way. Maybe management of symptoms only and not getting to deep roots has not worked for modern society, as it gets more and more deluded about itself and what residue it's ways hide.
@@dawlessbeats6223 I am pretty sure they don'tshow their customers the fact that their prostitutes are non consenting. Prostitues exist everywhere no shame in taking that service. The shame is on those who force people to become prostitute.
My favorite part was when he repeatedly opens and closes the door. It's the perfect representation of what's happening mentally with the character. "I promised her I'd never do this again" "I'm Alina's only hope" "I promised my dead wife" "Alina needs you" "Leave" "Stay" "Leave" "Stay" *Door locks* "OK, this is now happening"
I think it was an OCD thing. You see how neatly he folds things and how he is always tidying up around himself. The door opening and closing seemed like another manifestation of his compulsions
@@scottverni8333 I agree, he's very much OCD and needs everything precisely as he arranges it. Watch the beginning of Equalizer 2 when he's at the bar on the train and starts unfolding the napkin and rotating it until he's satisfied with it, and taps his spoon 7 times on the cup.
That's a good point about how his action at the door reflects some internal dialogue or indecision as he tries to decide whether to walk away or exact some justice on these thugs for what they've done and are doing. Like other things in his life, it also reflects his thoughtfulness and precision, as he waits for the right moment to start the meting out of justice and then collects himself as he observes various elements around the room that will play a role in his destruction of each thug. He has an intense focus combined with supreme confidence that allows him to relax and execute what he intends to do.
@@jaydedtoday He made a promise to his dying wife that he wouldn't live a life of violence anymore. It may be what's right, but her dying wish was for him to have peace, instead of being the one to sacrifice so others can have peace. It's understandable that he regrets breaking his promise to the love of his life, regardless of the good intentions.

@@deltatrianda-tria8288 the real answer is script, but logically I think he either wanted a closer target considering he's an amateur, or he just wanted to hold him at gunpoint and kick him out of the room. Murder in their premises during open hours is bad for business even if they're Russian mobsters.
Superbly crafted scene by director, cinematographer, great casting and Denzel exceeding expectations once again. This extended version is like a movie unto itself.
He should had been in John Wick as a trustworthy friend. If the make the Expendable 4 he could be of great help as the Equalizer. Like show up in one scene and saved the entirely expendable from a bunch of baddies who trapped them.
THANK YOU for the full sequences! Gotta love the way you excerpt the critical scenes, with the necessary lead-up material, and then show it in its entirety! LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!
That stare Zel gives at 4:01 with a little head tilt is terrifying - like the devil being amused by the future you just chose. Oh and that part with the door - open and close 3x - is so amazing.
I like The Equalizer and John Wick but what I liked alot about Denzel in this scene was he had no wasted movements. Every action/reaction was swift, fast and with a purpose. Hitting certain guys with kill shots while wanting others to suffer so he could take his time to punish them. Plus, the music made it feel even more badass.
@@HerrinSchadenfreude those 9 seconds were for his corkscrew moves and extras that were unnecessary... he spilled 9 seconds on the guy but could have floored him immediately with 1 hit.
Every guy in that scene deserves an Oscar, but boy Denzel definitely killed it. His facial expression when Slavi calls Alina “the trouble maker” was epic. Basically saying “you’re a dead man”.
I think the russian actor probably carried this scene along with Denzel. If it wasn't for his performance, the satisfaction of it wouldn't be as great as it is. Respect to these two actors.
please like my comment who watched this scene again and again.. honestly speaking i never get tired of seeing this episode multiple times. it's so f**king awesome!
the Russian tried to keep the intent look on his face thinking Denzel was going to fold in fear. But Denzel kept that same look in his eyes & the Russian had to play it off like he was joking. 3:48 😂😂
Love this scene, one of my favorites from the movie. To be locked in a room with 5 killers - but you have the skills and training to eliminate them in a matter of seconds. Thats some next level shit.
Just because you're in the Russian mob doesn't mean you're a killer; you're just a thug for hire...Take the Navy SEAL's; Army Green Berets, Marine Recon, Air Force Special Tactics....those are TRAINED killers...They would wipe the floor with those Russians; trust me...I'm one of them. GO NAVY
Aaah this scene unanimously creates something in all of us ! Fantastic cinema. Denzel & the russian actors are absolutely perfect. For me it’s the way mccall stare at the long hair man when the guy laugh n laugh again. Just the way the watch him is so brilliant .
The Equalizer 3 has brought me here. Haven't seen the previous movies yet, but the recent one has peaked my interest in the genre. I love the idea of "Have lots of love for your friends, and only hate for your foes" theme. Punisher, Nobody and John Wick are great, but there's just something about how cold and cruel McCall is to the bad guys. I love it!
One of the best action scenes of recent times. The dialogues leading upto the actual stunt bring the viewers to the edge of the seat already and that is the success.
This scene never gets old. Great acting, camera work, effects and direction by everyone involved. The repeated door closing and door locking gets me ever time. Here we go!
This is what’s known as, “catching lightning in a bottle.” When something you do turns out perfectly.

Man this scene never gets old! Denzel is one of one. My dad would have me replay this scene multiple times just for him to hear Denzel saying "you should've taken the money" 😂 One of his all time fave actor along with Liam Neeson,John Malkovich, Jon Voight, Morgan Freeman & Samuel L Jackson 😍🖤
YOUR Heart is Beating (3 Times) as fast to keep up with the blood loss, her life is going to go on. But your's is going to END, right here on this FUNKY floor! 😉😎
This is one of the best fight scenes ever and one of my favorite scenes ever in film. Denzel demonstrates total control of the situation. He first surveys his environment very well, then plans and then acts, not allowing his emotions to get the better of him. That's the way you win in life. Very few times, if any, do you go in guns blazing.
Never in my life have I been so satisfied with the deaths of those bad guys : "The mistake they made waa allowing Robert McCall in that office and he made sure it happened once"!.
"Alena, the girl you beat half to death, her life is going to go on. Yours is going to end here on this funky floor." EPIC. Denzel is my all time favorite actor. Hands down.
Too true, the “funky floor” seals the scene
"... over 9800 dollars" The sentence doesn't feel complete without this
When I first watched this scene I died laughing at that line... Im a weirdo lol 😂😂 😂
Agreed, Denzel’s the coolest of them all.
It was the writer who wrote the lines. It was the directors who conceived the scene and made him act as well guys
The best part about this outstanding scene is Denzel shows the character really hates killing anyone and tried to be civil till he had no choice.
Apologizes to his wife at the end of this scene too because he promised her he wouldn't go back to doing this.
Him closing the door 3 times is symbolic of him giving them 3 chances which they didn't take
@@williamlee7482 I literally never noticed. Lol

"love how he seeks weapons and studies the room before he strikes" yup, he notices a guy with a gun sitting in the corner and then walks to the center of the room, completely ignoring the guy with the gun😆
Another thing, why is this guy with guns get way to close to the him like if you have a gun stay away don't let him grab gun? And this happens many times in the movie.
Slopwork.
with a fucking pencil....
I love his movies he is a master at his craft
4:01 That simple, slow head tilt is so intimidating. Like a hunter studying It's prey before taking the right action. Still impressive till this day.
i saw that in breaking bad when Walter went to Home depot against bad guys in the parking ! same effect !
It looked very reptilian, didn't it? Like a predator sizing up its prey before it strikes.
"...26 one thousand,27 one thousand,28 one thousand...." Goosebumps listening to Denzyl's cold voice of death.
Also u can use it counting system while storming to the enemy fronts, or leaving ur current position or while throwing a hand grenade it’s very effective and most of the special forces using this system for many situations
That's the special force training he applied meticulously.
..someone s got a crush on 'Denzel ' . .. . ..😆😆😆😉
@@krishnan-resurrection714 yes I'm fan of his acting. The movie ' Bone collector' is one of my favorites too.
Denzyl sounds like the name of a dodgy medicine.
This was the last movie me and my dad watched together we watched all 3 but I put this one again Saturday and he passed away Monday he had bad stroke and wasn’t with it he had a few of them but he loved Denzel a lot and this series and all our shows we watched im 30 he was 81 I spent a lot of time taking care of him on hospice the last two years it was hard very hard but we kept him home and all these movies are going to be hard to watch now.
Bless you man.
@@Smakbab9069 you too man thank you
Definitely one of my top 5 A-List Actor of all time. Denzel Washington!
yes! him, eastwood, walken, deniro, and hopkins round out my top 5 nicely.
Hands down this is one of my favorite movie scenes ever
Watch pelican brief a great Denzel film.
have you seen Sherlock Holmes with rdj? of not you totally should
I also suggest the man from nowhere, a Korean film.
Yes
And the 2nd movie had no scenes that come close. This one is head over heels better.
The fact that McCall does not care how many they are, but how long it will take him to kill them... Gives me chills EVERY time!
And his face when he didn’t meet the time he set “oh I’m getting a little slow”
@@ayaretgonzalez27078 He is being too hard on himself. It was only 3 seconds.
@@ayaretgonzalez27078 What you lose to age, it gives back in experience and wisdom.
He was always better than his former self.
@@rpremkumar1958 Yes, he is.
The slow motion then zooming into his eyes and in the background heartbeats... 5:49 masterclass❤
When a middle aged Denzel Washington is a believable super agent/assassin against a room filled with Russian Gangsters ... you know it's a well made movie.
Since when is 60s middle aged? 40s is middle aged 60s is OLD. 70S And up is elderly.

This extended scene is great. Top notch acting by all. Such controlled violence by Denzels character. I even love how he times himself, predicts 16 seconds and hits 19 showing that he is a bit rusty even though it was completely effortless.
Exactly. Showing his rust. Imagine in his prime for that character. I say 13 seconds
to be fair he spent a majority of those seconds watching that guy fall lol
@@jasminjelovac9416 This is exactly it. He's mentally evaluating, hmmm, they took longer falling down than I expected. Ah well. Not too shabby.
The guy killed with the corkscrews, McCall looks him dead in the eye the whole time he was killing him. That is ruthless!
@@jasminjelovac9416He would've made his time had he pushed the guy down instead. Hahaha...
"...her life's going to go on. Yours is going to end right here on this funky floor." That's just cold-blooded. I laugh every time.
You can see the second he realises that the situation won't end peacefully.
And the bit where he's working out his time is fantastic, the facial expression when he realised he was three seconds off of his time 😅
This is a great movie. By far this is THE BEST 9 minutes in the whole movie!!!
Hello maureen how are you doing today
He’s not apologizing to the Russian, he’s apologizing to his wife.. My heart gets pounded whenever seeing this horrifying scene..
Great job copying someone else's comment bsmdh
"You're life is going to end over $9800 dollars! you should of taken the money". What a great scene.
If something is put in quotation marks, it should be correct.
On this funky floor
@@jimmyreece5781 yes, indeed!!🤭
Should have!!!!!!!!!!
"You are life is going to end over $9800 dollars!"?... You're = You are, Should've = should have.
I love the effect starting at 8:36 making McCall's face blur to look like part of a skull from the POV of the dying mobster. It's very subtle and only lasts for 2 seconds, but the effect is pretty creepy.
Yes. He was mumbling asking who his killer is. But probably saw he as the grim reaper.
Damn so creative
I've always wondered if that's the effect when we humans are on the way to passing away.
“YOU SHOULD’VE TAKEN THE MONEY” 😂
اسم الاغنية ❤❤❤❤😂😂😂

1/1000, 2/1000, 3/1000.....like that timer watch he always in his mind plays an artist assassin who wants to beat his own records lol
"That girl is still child. Can still sell her as virgin. This makes her prime earner for a good while." So chilling. And to know so many women, children, and even some men are forced into this every day.
Most chilling thing is that there are sooo many ppl who’s willing to buy those type of sick service.
@@dawlessbeats6223 Even more people that are so scared of being ruled by monsters they'd rather deny their existence, and close their eyes on truth.
Yes in place like India they do this to millions of girls and then kill them afterwards. Sick people.
The other thing to think about is why there is unquenchable demand for this kind of thing. Things have not always been this way.
Maybe management of symptoms only and not getting to deep roots has not worked for modern society, as it gets more and more deluded about itself and what residue it's ways hide.
@@dawlessbeats6223 I am pretty sure they don'tshow their customers the fact that their prostitutes are non consenting. Prostitues exist everywhere no shame in taking that service. The shame is on those who force people to become prostitute.
My favorite part was when he repeatedly opens and closes the door. It's the perfect representation of what's happening mentally with the character. "I promised her I'd never do this again" "I'm Alina's only hope" "I promised my dead wife" "Alina needs you" "Leave" "Stay" "Leave" "Stay"
*Door locks* "OK, this is now happening"
I really like your comment... you hit the nail on the head!
I think it was an OCD thing. You see how neatly he folds things and how he is always tidying up around himself. The door opening and closing seemed like another manifestation of his compulsions
@@scottverni8333 I agree, he's very much OCD and needs everything precisely as he arranges it. Watch the beginning of Equalizer 2 when he's at the bar on the train and starts unfolding the napkin and rotating it until he's satisfied with it, and taps his spoon 7 times on the cup.
@@davecothran
I love that part when says excuse me as he taps his spoon.
That's a good point about how his action at the door reflects some internal dialogue or indecision as he tries to decide whether to walk away or exact some justice on these thugs for what they've done and are doing. Like other things in his life, it also reflects his thoughtfulness and precision, as he waits for the right moment to start the meting out of justice and then collects himself as he observes various elements around the room that will play a role in his destruction of each thug. He has an intense focus combined with supreme confidence that allows him to relax and execute what he intends to do.
No doubt one of the best scenes of any film of all time.
8:50 he's not sorry for the guys he just killed. he's saying "i'm sorry" to his wife, to whom he swore he'd never kill again.
That's exactly what I was going to say. :)
thank-you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@@jaydedtoday Solid statement. It's the one thing the love of my life has reminded me, time and time again. Good woman, she is.
@@jaydedtoday He isn't an anti-hero.
@@jaydedtoday He made a promise to his dying wife that he wouldn't live a life of violence anymore. It may be what's right, but her dying wish was for him to have peace, instead of being the one to sacrifice so others can have peace.
It's understandable that he regrets breaking his promise to the love of his life, regardless of the good intentions.

@@deltatrianda-tria8288 because it's in the script 😂✌️
@@deltatrianda-tria8288 the russian guy thought he is just an amateur who are not aware on his surrounding. so instead shooting long range he moved closer thinking he is just letting himself wide open. but also the script.
@@deltatrianda-tria8288 it's a classic Hollywood 'why didn't they kill them when they had the chance' moment.
Plot twist, he’s an expert assassin playing an actor playing an assassin.
@@deltatrianda-tria8288 the real answer is script, but logically I think he either wanted a closer target considering he's an amateur, or he just wanted to hold him at gunpoint and kick him out of the room. Murder in their premises during open hours is bad for business even if they're Russian mobsters.
Superbly crafted scene by director, cinematographer, great casting and Denzel exceeding expectations once again. This extended version is like a movie unto itself.
Not forgetting the brilliant Stunt Team led by Keith Woulard : the sequel is equally good.
..pity its just an inferior remake of the Edward Woodward classic . . . .
A mess from a tactical standpoint
Denzel should be put into more one man action thrillers, he's awesome, and without a doubt one of my favorite actors of all time
He should had been in John Wick as a trustworthy friend. If the make the Expendable 4 he could be of great help as the Equalizer. Like show up in one scene and saved the entirely expendable from a bunch of baddies who trapped them.

I like The Equalizer and John Wick but what I liked alot about Denzel in this scene was he had no wasted movements. Every action/reaction was swift, fast and with a purpose. Hitting certain guys with kill shots while wanting others to suffer so he could take his time to punish them. Plus, the music made it feel even more badass.
Equalizer over John Wick anytime
Calculated.
I'd have loved it if we found out there was a wick verse or whatever and Robert McCall was a part of it... Wick, McCall and Hutch Mansel..
Ya John wick is stylised...
You had a wasted movement. Swift=fast
Não perco um filme com o Denzel Washington.
Que performance. E Que Charmoso!Adoorrrooo!!!❤❤❤❤
That wiped the smile and laughter off their faces, especially the long hair one. Well acted
His “28 minus 9, 19” face , after killing them all is epic . Lol. Gotta love Denzel.
..he s wondering cause needs more than a second for this action than he calculatet before..😉
Yeah just gotta subtract that nine or accuracy out the window, lol!
@@HerrinSchadenfreude I dont get it
@@HerrinSchadenfreude those 9 seconds were for his corkscrew moves and extras that were unnecessary... he spilled 9 seconds on the guy but could have floored him immediately with 1 hit.

It amazes me that they can it look so real without someone getting hurt badly !
Never gets old, what a great scene.
Every guy in that scene deserves an Oscar, but boy Denzel definitely killed it. His facial expression when Slavi calls Alina “the trouble maker” was epic. Basically saying “you’re a dead man”.
Kick ass scene one of the best.
Sigue siendo la mejor de las 3
Denzel is perfect for this character. I read that Equalizer 3 is in the early stages and I’ll definitely watch it.
The non verbal acting is what gets me the most! I love facial expressions that speaks louder than their lines.
The greatest or if not one of the greatest fight scenes you can't call it a fight scene but more of a hero ultimate takedown scene
Damn this scene never grows old !!! The best one to date Denzel the Legend!!
5:35 mom always told me do not to play with the door because I'm gonna hurt my finger, but when Denzel plays...
I think the russian actor probably carried this scene along with Denzel. If it wasn't for his performance, the satisfaction of it wouldn't be as great as it is. Respect to these two actors.
He's American as shit lol. Watch Justified.
Nobody gonna talk about how this dude roasted Denzel in 4:34 💀💀💀
Epic filmography. Not just one of Denzel's best, but one of the greatest scenes ever...

the Russian tried to keep the intent look on his face thinking Denzel was going to fold in fear. But Denzel kept that same look in his eyes & the Russian had to play it off like he was joking. 3:48 😂😂
Love this scene, one of my favorites from the movie. To be locked in a room with 5 killers - but you have the skills and training to eliminate them in a matter of seconds. Thats some next level shit.
It's a movie, you know that, right?
Just because you're in the Russian mob doesn't mean you're a killer; you're just a thug for hire...Take the Navy SEAL's; Army Green Berets, Marine Recon, Air Force Special Tactics....those are TRAINED killers...They would wipe the floor with those Russians; trust me...I'm one of them. GO NAVY

Just the way the watch him is so brilliant .
This has to be the greatest movie fight seen of all time doesn’t it ?
The Equalizer 3 has brought me here. Haven't seen the previous movies yet, but the recent one has peaked my interest in the genre.
I love the idea of "Have lots of love for your friends, and only hate for your foes" theme.
Punisher, Nobody and John Wick are great, but there's just something about how cold and cruel McCall is to the bad guys.
I love it!
One of the best action scenes of recent times. The dialogues leading upto the actual stunt bring the viewers to the edge of the seat already and that is the success.
A brilliant film, a brilliant actor.
This scene never gets old. Great acting, camera work, effects and direction by everyone involved. The repeated door closing and door locking gets me ever time. Here we go!
This is what’s known as, “catching lightning in a bottle.” When something you do turns out perfectly.

This is one of the best fight scenes ever and one of my favorite scenes ever in film. Denzel demonstrates total control of the situation. He first surveys his environment very well, then plans and then acts, not allowing his emotions to get the better of him. That's the way you win in life. Very few times, if any, do you go in guns blazing.
@Rodney Dove that's also one of the best scenes! The Warriors is a cult classic, and it's on a whole different level. 💪
Denzel the legend
You're making the world a better place with your content! ❤
That fearlessness, That calmness, That hitting force = Only in movie
Never in my life have I been so satisfied with the deaths of those bad guys : "The mistake they made waa allowing Robert McCall in that office and he made sure it happened once"!.
Don't ever let me into your office. My father let me into his office once....Once...
I just love Denzel. He's such a man in this role - quiet, courteous, civil, and completely deadly.
