The Equalizer 3 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) 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. Oct 3, 2023 Full Review The Equalizer 3 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Rafer Guzman 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 Oct 3, 2023 Full Review The Equalizer 3 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) tt stern-enzi WXIX-TV (Cincinnati, OH) It feels like a horror film; like you're watching Jason or Michael Myers, except Denzel is the boogeyman in this case... and that smile that he has at the very beginning, that's his mask. Rated: B Sep 12, 2023 Full Review The Equalizer 3 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Steve Crum Crum on Showbiz The production looks good with spot-on cinematography by Robert Richardson, and an effective heartbeat score by Marcelo Zarvos. Rated: B+ Jan 16, 2024 Full Review The Equalizer 3 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) John Serba 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. Jan 2, 2024 Full Review The Equalizer 3 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Brian Gill Mad About Movies Podcast A movie that knows what it is and what its strengths are, even if it is often limited by its director. Rated: B+ Dec 27, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
