The third part of the franchise moves things to Italy, which is pretty much what this film is all about. It has the usual Equalizer beats, only it's all happening in a very picturesque, uniquely Italian setting. I can't say I minded that much, I quite like the Equalizer films, but a masterpiece this is not.
The setting is lovely, Washington has aged quite a bit but he's still passable for his role here and the action scenes are subdued but stylish and to the point. The real excitement may be missing a little and the film doesn't add much to the previous installments, but it's perfectly decent filler.
