A man who wants to bury her past deeply and begin to live a new life, a quiet life. McCall then dedicated himself to helping the weak and oppressed communities.

Daily he worked at a supermarket supplies home (Home Mart). He lives and lives alone in an apartment that is simple and only hang out with co-workers as well as some of the people who live in the vicinity. From the beginning of the story, it appears that McCall is a very thorough and detail of something, and greatly appreciate the time. In the workplace and the environment, McCall also people who are friendly and happy to help others. After his wife left, he spent much of his time by reading a good book at home, on the way to and from the office as well as at a cafe (Bridge Dinner) which is open 24 hours. Living with all the other routines as normal life.

Until one day he met and became acquainted with the Teri / Alina (Chloë Grace Moretz) a young girl with the profession as a commercial sex worker in a hoarse voice that used to come to the same cafe. Teri who works for the Russian mafia is often receive unfair treatment by superiors, McCall finally felt compelled to do something. He decided to help Teri. McCall effort to help Teri turned out to bring it to a bigger problem. Alina boss turned out to be an accomplice of the highly influential Russian mafia. Big boss of the mafia who are not happy because his business interfere McCall, eventually sending a special person to hunt McCall. But it turns out this is not an easy thing because McCall was not an ordinary person.

Actually, in his other life he had been a lot of people who do bad things, things he was not proud of, things that really he wanted to forget. He also promised the people that he loves to never be that person again. But in this case he wants to use his past ability to help Teri until complete.

At this movie (The Equalizer) there are some conversations that really made an impression on me, especially in a conversation couple (Brian and Susan) friend McCall ; 

Brian "Were you able to help him?" 
Susan "He didn't come for help, He came for permission"

It was one of dialogue exceptional in my opinion. And another dialogue "Change your world as you wish" "Change your world. Anything you wanna be"
