Review of John Wick (2014) by Kevtheobald — 10 Jun 2015
If you are hoping to find a Matrix knock off this is not it. If you are hoping to find a deep original movie, this is not it. If you just want a fun action flick to kill a couple of hours, this is it.
I think if you watch this for what it is, just entertainment, you will enjoy it. Reeves delivered the tough reserved killer role. I am sure his training for the Matrix helped a ton in making him a great fit for this.
The action is graphic. I appreciated the little touches, such as showing him take extra shots to make sure his enemies are dead. Naturally, the physics get pushed to unreal levels at times, but not as bad as many films have done.
If actions films is what you love, this is well worth watching. If you are not big on violence, you may want to skip this.
