Review:
This fucking movie!!! OK, that’s it for my review. Good night, everyone!
OK OK OK, for real now. This movie was just amazing! From start to finish, you’re not going to want to blink. Trust me, I tried.
This movie picks up right where it left off in the last time, kinda. I’m trying my best not to spoil anything here for you all or for Uncle Willy. He will kill me if I let something slip out.
(Ed. note: YES I WILL!)
This movie was pure testosterone, with a hint of style and class.
The story is pretty simple. John Wick is supposed to be retired from doing what he does best, but the events in the first part of the movie pretty much sends a red flag to the higher-ups. Someone from John’s past visits him to make him an offer he can’t refuse. This is due to a “marker”, a blood oath John took in order to leave the criminal world and marry his late wife. John is pretty much stuck between a rock and a hard place with this offer….and that’s it. You’re not getting anything else out of me!
The action in this movie – again – was fucking badass! I can’t stress enough how excited I got with every ass-whooping John would give in this movie. Also, the fucking weapons he would use! Let me also point out that Keanu Reeves did all his stunts, whether driving, fighting, or shooting. In other words, don’t fuck with him people!!
Your villains were your typical villains, but they all had rules on where to fight. That’s because of a code all assassins have in this world. Played by some great actors like Ruby Rose, Common, Riccardo Scamarcio, and more. I have to say that their styles were great, even to the point to where you wish to see more villains like them around.
There’s also bits of comedy in this movie. Not your typical slapstick, pie-in-the-face, fart jokes, but they have plenty to offer. They are quite subtle but still hilarious.
I think this movie is amazing. Again, this is just my opinion, and if you see this movie and feel I missed or forgot something please feel free to comment.
Good: Nonstop action; No dull moments; Story is tight
Bad: It ended
Verdict: 10 out of 10
