Of all the properties of the 1980s survive in the 20th century, the "equalizer" proved to be one of the most incredible. Edward Woodward embodies Robert McCall on the original CBS television series for four seasons, while Queen Latifah played a gender version named Robin McCar The reboot series that lasted five seasons on the same network. However, it is the legendary Denzel Washington who had the longest term as Mala after playing the character for more than a decade In Antoine Juka's "Equilizer" films. No actor plays the role like others, with the only line being a central figure with a violent past using his skills to protect those who cannot protect themselves.

In terms of the most brutal sensibilities, that honor goes to Washington without question. Fuka's first two films of "Equilizer" demonstrate how ruthless (especially with a nail gun), but it is "Equiliary 3" that pushes the face into even darker territory. Published in 2023 This, in turn, is forcing McCal to take a very needed holiday to treat his injuries in the city of Altamonte. Of course, as he meets the locals, he also begins to witness the relentless mafia of the Camora mafia, led by Vincent Quranta (Andrea Scarduzio).

What follows is a string of, How /movie Whitney Seibard noticed in his review "Equilizer 3"Radically violent works against Vincent and his men. Indeed, McCar at Washington becomes so ruthless in this installment that the film is quite weaker in masking (but weaker as its own hero). At one point McCar even goes so far as to stare in the eyes of the Mafia, he just stabbed him in the throat as they leave this aircraft. All this is contrary to the beautiful setting of the film - one that was not always easy to catch, of course.

For all conversations about relentless violence in "Equiliary 3", it is a striking film to watch for the sake of Fuka and the company that actually shoots at Italy. Altamonte is a fictional name for the true coastal villa of Atrani and its beautiful sight. Filming the site also really gives a sense of life history, especially when it comes to Italian architecture. Indeed, one of the most beautiful locations on the Amalfi coast is the Church of Santa Maria del Bando on Mount Aureo, dating back to the 10th century. The worship sites are also generally intended to be welcome for those who enter, although this particular church is noticeable in that it is a safe shelter during the tricky tsunami in the late 14th century. But in the case of this film, the church was nothing but that.

In an interview in 2023 with Fun weeklyJuka explained how shooting to Santa Maria del Bando imposed the crew of the film to their borders ... and made them pour lunch on the road. Here he remembers that special day of shooting:

"The church is 700 steps up; when I got there, I said, 'Well, how will we get this step equipment? Oh, we use donkeys. I didn't see One Donkey in Italy all the time when I was there. There was no donkey in sight! I saw my team, with cigarettes hanging from the mouth that carry up equipment up. There was a lot of smoking. "

Anyone who has ever traveled abroad knows that traveling through European architecture on a hot day is no joke. Now imagine you have to wear a lot of movie equipment up and down 700 steps on the stairs, however many days you need to shoot your scene. I am by no means religious, but I'm sure you must have felt strange to blow pieces through a historical landmark. Washington was even joking about how difficult it is to get there to begin with (through DVD -SUBJECTS):

"When I looked at that cross, I was like" how we get there. " (Laughs) 'No, how will you get there?' That's all part of the trip.

The scene in the church includes a conversation between McCar and CIA officer Emma Collins (Dakota Fanning), who even gets a humorous crack at his expense by asking if he should call an ambulance after seeing him sweating on those flights on the stairs. In a DVD -SUBJECTS Titled "Postcards from the Amalfi Coast", Hanning also paid for his taxi on a valuable team that attracted all that equipment just to make the film possible:

"I just had to wear and was almost too much. So it's a brutal journey to the top and praised the crew and every person who had to wear heavy equipment and cameras and lights and work on those steps and set everything to make a movie."
