How Did The Equalizer 3 Do In Theaters?

The release of The Equalizer 3 in theaters on September 1 garnered predominantly positive early reviews. Critics expressed more admiration for this latest installment compared to the previous two, as evidenced by The Equalizer 3's Rotten Tomatoes score of 75%, which marks a new high for the franchise. Additionally, the audience score of 94% sets a record for the franchise, indicating that the latest sequel resonated with a wide range of moviegoers.

Despite receiving the highest scores from audiences and critics in the franchise's history, The Equalizer 3's opening weekend box office fell short at $34.6 million. This exceeded the first film's $34.1 million earnings in 2014 but was behind the second film's $36 million in 2018. The estimated budget for The Equalizer 3 of $70 million falls between the costs of the previous two installments, with the first film costing $55 million and the second film costing $77 million.

Although the new sequel has currently earned $158.9 million worldwide, it remains behind both of its predecessors in terms of total earnings. The original Equalizer film concluded its run with $192.9 million, making it the highest earner in the franchise, while The Equalizer 2 finished with $190 million. While not reaching the same levels of success as the first two films, The Equalizer 3 has still performed reasonably well considering the current state of the theatrical industry. It serves as a fitting conclusion to Washington's vigilante hero.
