It could have been called "Burn Notice the Movie".
Former spy helps hooker and winds up fighting a war against a Russian mob boss.
Good movie, but it was just Denzel whooping ass. There was never any tension or doubt in the story. The bad guys never had the upper hand. So the story kind of sucked. I mean, every episode of Burn Notice had Michael Weston in some predicament when things went wrong, but not here.
Despite that, it's still a good film for entertainment's sake. I think they might have been trying to go for a franchise here, which is curious considering his age.
What's with Russians and tattoos?
The Equalizer
You know how old the dude in the TV series was? Denzel's only got five years on him. Fucking Robert Mitchum was the Equalizer in the '80s for a brief period when the other one had a heart attack. Sean Bean's around the age Edward Woodward was when he started, mid 50s. Mitchum was around 70 when he did his thing.

The Equalizer
I'm just now seeing this. Action clips from Equalizer 3 have been showing up in my YouTube feed, and I was like, "Huh. He's John Wick, I never knew that." I also never watched the TV show.
So I just watched this one, and yeah, John Wick got a lot of DNA from this movie.
