Official John Wick (Keanu Reaves) Thread

[Bobhoward]

The movie was stylistically just awesome and really entertaining.


But...

The one thing that always bothers me with these types of movies..

Spoiler

Why do the protagonist and antagonist throw away perfectly fine opportunities to just kill the other person?


Russian boss has Keanu tied up, guns pointed at him. Keanu tells him to give up his son or he's gonna kill him. So the Russian boss walks out of the room and tells his henchman kill Keanu. This is after Keanu already killed like 30 henchman on his own.

Keanu escapes, had a gun pointed at the main Russian boss... "tell me where your son is and I'll let you go"

action sequences were

but the storyline and villains were

Spoiler

Old russian dude had at least 3 chances to kill Wick, then at the end chooses to have a fistfight with someone half his age

With near classics like Gone Girl & Fury in theaters, it's hard to recommend this. Dope for an action flick tho, definitely shyts on Expendables 3

Heard this movie is flamey

Movie was

Spoiler

What i found funny about it was how the bad guys KNEW they fukked up when they found out the boss's son fukked with John Wick.

Boss: So why did you hit my son?

John Legizamo: He stole John Wick's car boss.....and killed his dog

Boss: ..........Oh

Meanwhile John Wick is loading up his guns like

Yeah he basically gave his son the speech

Great Movie! I can tell the casting director watches a lot of TV. You have an All-star team from all the critically acclaimed TV shows over the years. There's actors from Dem Thrones, Deadwood, Friday Night Lights, The Wire & Oz

Same thing i was thinking at that part cuz the boss already knows the nikka is a problem lol my only real complaint in a boss ass movie

 

[Smashius Clay]

shyt was entirely too dope..loved the world building, loved the character, loved everything about it. May get my money again. Awesome seeing action scenes not being on shaky cam too

This.

shyt is a go bruhs, and say what you want but them killing that dog had me . And I knew it was coming.

Movie was alright. It felt more like I was watching someone play a video game instead of watching a movie though.

Saw it tonight. Looks like a new era of action movie, it never lets up.

I think that's by intent. There's a scene where dude was playing the video game that was paralleling with the movie itself.

Not the biggest fan of action movies, but man, this shyt was disappointing. The plot was trash as fukk and the characters did some real head scratching shyt.

A lot of fights, head shots, and explosions. If you like that stuff, then check it out. But don't expect much more than that.

I give it a 5/10.

 

[HHR]

It was ok.

Never seen more point black shots to the face though

And I'm pretty sure 75% of the people in that club were henchmen. No way that joint was turning a profit.

 

[gluvnast]

SMH at people going into the movie looking for oscar caliber worthiness.

It is an ACTION film that doesn't take itself seriously.... turn off your analytic brain and just ENJOY the fucckery!

 

[TheDarceKnight]

I might have to see this. I heard good reviews and on top of that legit brazilian jiu jitsu shyt in the fight scenes?
