Movie Maven: 'The Equalizer'
September 26, 2014
MPR's Movie Maven Stephanie Curtis joins Steve Seel and Jill Riley to talk about a new action-adventure film starring Denzel Washington.
The Equalizer is based on the television show of the same name. Washington plays Robert McCall, who works full-time at a DIY supercenter as a retired former intelligence officer. When a friend is wronged, however, McCall uses his wits and his previous training to exact revenge.
"It's done really incredibly well for what it is," Stephanie says. "It's gratuitous but enjoyable."

The Equalizer is rated R and is playing at theaters everywhere.
