Well, it seems like Netflix users better hurry up if they want to catch a glimpse of Denzel Washington's hit action thriller. The A-list star's film previously sat at number seven of the top ten movies list on Netflix (exactly one month after the star’s serial killer flick, The Little Things, claimed the number one spot on the streaming platform). 

But now, in just four days, The Equalizer (which is one of my fave movies starring the longtime actor, btw) will be departing the streaming platform for good. The 2014 dark thriller is the first installment in the Equalizer movie franchise and centers around a retired CIA operative named Robert McCall (Washington), who resorts to his old ways when he tries to save a sex worker (Chloë Grace Moretz) who is being controlled by violent Russian mobsters.
