This still semi rusty John Wick. maybe 85% back?
This guy is still shaking off the rust, can you imagine him in his prime, hungry, before falling in love?
I keep reminding myself he's still on that same 3-4 week rampage. Even if he was out for only a year or 2 it's takes longer to get back in shape, and it must have been longer for Vigos son to have no idea who he was.

I think it was better than 2 but not as good as 1.

All have been dope though.

This joint was better than 2 but one is still better due to the more grounded nature. But damn, Halle was putting in work with those dogs.
Yeah, 2 had a better story (but also just too much exposition) but the action had no variety in that movie. I think outside of the confrontation with Common it really was just Wick headshotting hundreds of guys over and over. This might have been more over the top but at least switched up the action a lot.

There needs to be a balance of Gun Fu and hand to hand fights in the next one.

And the Continental tv show whenever that comes out

I liked it, the antique shop fight, the continental fight, the fight with the Raid dudes were all fire.

Parts did drag and the dialogue wasn't too great but I'm not really here for all that, I'm here for the gunplay and got knife action :wow:

Just to make things clear about the ending
Winston double crossed John right?

SN: I tried to explain to my mom that The Adjudicator is non-binary and goes by they pronouns, she was :what::comeon::dahell:the whole ride home :russ:

This movie was amazing. They had my nikka fishbourne living like the rat king and shyt. That shotgun burst was :whoa: but the ending is confusing. I thought winston shot wick in a way 2 keep him alive and he really didnt turn his back on him i dont think. Also why not kill the abjudicater as well? No one calls the cops anymore nikkas getting murked like they aint shyt

I Never seen a man get his ass kicked so much. They was beating the shyt out of Wick and them Chinese ninjas laid his ass out a few times. Also I think he broke a record for being kicked through glass objects. Also, is Satan on his side or what because that fall should have crippled or killed him. :no:

Saw it with wifey last night. We both gave it a 8/10.

1) I agree with 90% of what has already been said in here.

2) Better than 2, not better than 1.

3) Scenes with the dogs/knife shop fight scenes were legendary.

4) The expansion of the world of assassins was bittersweet. One the one hand, as was said, the exclusivity you felt about the assassin community from the first movie was part of its great appeal. On the other hand, the introduction of the new characters offers exciting new side stories (e.g., how does one BECOME an adjudicator? How much power do they truly wield?)

I thought winston shot wick in a way 2 keep him alive and he really didnt turn his back on him i dont think.

That's another possible twist....that both Winston and the Bowery King are secretly plotting to take them down, from the inside (Winston) and outside (Fishburne), and are using Wick to achieve that end, unbeknownst to Wick.

Also why not kill the abjudicater as well?

I mean, damn.....they simply helped Wick and got reprimanded harshly. Can't imagine the punishment for killing an Adjudicator. :whoa:
