Re: Queen Latifah as The Equalizer

"At first I thought she was too improbable as an aging ex-CIA hero,"

My personal opinion:  If it's good enough for "aging improbable" male actors, then it's good enough for "aging" female actors.

"Never argue with a fool. Onlookers may not be able to tell the difference."

Ah, yes, The Bone Collector.  Your post gave me goosebumps as I read it.  I'll have to check DISH to see if they have it on demand.

@stevieb  I know. Horrible isn't it. I refuse to watch this junk they have on tv now.

To me the original actor, Edward Woodward, is The Equalizer. But I liked Denzel's version, too.

I missed the first episode but will try to watch tonight.  Chris Noth is one of my favorites.

Definitely enjoying it -- Love Queen Latifah and her supporting cast. It's also good to see that a person who's not the typically showcased hollywood hero, but instead usually plays the sassy sidekick, can play the starring savior role and defend herself and others with style and flair.

I love her movies. Haven't seen the Equalizer yet but look forward to it. Thanks for the comment. 

Loved Queen Latifah in "Bringing down the house" Beauty Shop", The Last Vacation" - if the titles aren't exact - apologies in advance but love her movies!
