Screening Notes
Denzel just radiates a “cool factor” every time he is on screen…and he is a super actor that always sucks me into every character he plays. Like the first 2 films, Equalizer 3 is filled with intense action and violence, and a very straightforward help-the-helpless storyline. In more than a few ways, I find the Equalizer films similar to Clint Eastwood westerns…the lone hero riding into a new town and stirring things up with the local thugs. Loved the reunion with Fanning…come to think of it, this film could’ve almost been a Man on Fire sequel.
Boxoffice Estimate
Denzel’s top 10 films (which includes both Equalizer movies) have averaged a $30M opening weekend and a $105M total. The two Equalizer films, 4 years apart, generated almost identical numbers, averaging a $35M opening and $102M total. Although 9 years since the 1st title and 5 years since the 2nd, Equalizer 3 should deliver similar results, with an estimated $38M opening, with a range between $34M and $42M. Yes, the opening weekend projection is a solid 89% greater than the average Sep R-rated film over the past 7 years, but then this is Denzel Washington we are talking about…as a counterbalance, the $38M estimate is 13% less than the recent set of comparative titles. All this points to a respectable 2.9x multiple, leading to a final gross estimated between $99M and $121M.
