David McK (3721 KP) rated John Wick: Chapter 2 (2017) in Movies

Ask anyone to name Keanu Reeves best action movies, and there's a very good chance they'll name either The Matrix series, Speed or this: John Wick.
Essentially a revenge movie (and following the events of the first movie), John Wick is forced out of retirement by a blood oath to carry out an assassination against a high profile target, with the individual doing so then putting out a hit against John - aka The Boogeyman - himself. This film, then, takes the opportunity to build the world in which John Wick inhabits, in particular the role of the chain of the Continental Hotels, in which no blood can be spilt under threat of becoming excommunicado (and thus setting up John Wick chapter 3)

Baba Yaga
The baba yaga returns in the stylish ultra violent John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum. The time span of the three movies is around 2 weeks, and opens within minutes of the events of Chapter 2.
While the two previous chapters have solely been in New York, Chapter 3 adds Casablanca, and introduces more back story to John Wick.
If you are going for John Wick, it;s not about the depth of the story, one of franchises biggest positives is the stylish and skillful action sequences, John Wick 3 delivers in droves.
The film sets up for a Chapter 4, leaving us wondering what the baba yaga is bringing to us next.

Chapter 2 wasn't necessarily better than the first John Wick, but I didn't have to see his poor dead puppy. The action was good, and everything was well-choreographed. I love knowing that Keanu did the stunts, and he's just general a bad ass as John Wick. I'm not sure where Chapter Three will go, but I'm definitely, anxiously awaiting it.

John Wick spin-off featuring Ana de Armas as a member of the Ruska Roma from the John Wick universe, who - after being trained by said Ruska Roma's - is on a vendetta against those who killed her father when she was a child.
Full of stylish action - the flame-thrower bit in particular is impressive - with Keanu Reeve's titular john Wick making a couple of cameos (and showing why he is so feared in 'this' world of the movie), this never-the-less seems to lack the bite of the action movies from which it is spun off.
Still worth a watch, though!

Brutal action
One for John Wick fans
A pretty simple story of man with some gold who some fleeing Nazi's at the end of WW2 try to rob. Except this guy is someone you don't mess with.
The cinematography is great, a very photogenic film especially in the early part. Then it kicks in to bad ass John Wick mode with gory violence. Simple and effective.

So I have to say that after seeing the trailer a while back I was intrigued by this new release from director Ilya Naishuller (Hardcore Henry) and write Derek Kolstad who many will know as the writer of the amazing John Wick movies of which I am a massive fan, that being said Nobody certainly has then John Wick feel to it and while we wait for the release of Chapter 4 next year and Chapter 5, this movie is one that certainly keeps the mind keen for that Wick style action genre.
If you love the John Wick movies then Nobody is a great movie to check out, it’s certainly a movie that is going down on my Blu-ray list when it gets a home release

Action
Awsome
John Wick.... OMG It's brilliant. Keanu IS Wick, he 100% owns this character. Its fast paced, full on action and is very very violent and bloody but it was has some wry funny moments. I like a good vengeance movie especially when it's as good as this.
