***

Highly skilled ex-Intelligence agent finds new career as vigilante after prostitute gets beaten up by her Russian pimp, but the trail of evil leads him inexorably to bigger and bigger fish.  Solid thriller all around, with Denzel Washington giving another excellent performance as a quiet man of power and resolve.  Lacks only an emotional center to complement its hardboiled moral core.  Based on the Edward Woodward television series of the same name.  With Chloë Grace Moretz, Marton Csokas, and, in small roles, Melissa Leo and Bill Pullman.
