The Equalizer stars Denzel Washington as Robert McCall, a former Black Ops commando who faked his own death in hopes of living out a quiet life in Boston. However, when he comes out of his self-imposed retirement to save a young girl named Teri "Chloë Grace Moretz", he finds his thirst for justice reawakened after coming face-to-face with a syndicate of brutal Russian gangsters. Afterwards, McCall becomes the go-to man when the helpless require the kind of vengeance they would never find without his skills.
After Home Mart cashier Jenny gets robbed of her cash register money and the thief also takes her ring, McCall grabs a new sledge hammer from the store to exact revenge and get the ring back. All the hammers are hanging between wall pegs with the UPC stickers on the handles facing out.
When the store opens the following morning and Jenny finds her ring in her register, McCall returns the sledge hammer to its place on the pegboard, wiping it off as he's doing so. Only he places the hammer with the sticker facing in, not out like all the rest.
Cliched and done to death formula! But still fun to watch on a night when you don't want to be bothered with something cerebral. Denzel Washington is good as ever & the Russian Mafia doesn't stand a chance in hell anyway! Am gonna hit the sequel next folks...
