Review of John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023) by 43In2014 — 29 Mar 2023

The short review: John gets more frustrated with the hits issued on his life and will try to end it once and for all, in an ultimate duel. > Related media: I have seen the three other films. Though I do not remember how I had rated them, all of them would have gotten at least a 4/5. > Positives: > 1. The film is beautifully shot, from great locations to great camera angles and placements.

> 2. This is Part 4 and the storyline is still good. That's a rarity. Even the Toy Story franchise could not do well past Part 3.

> Negatives:

> 1. With 77, 128 and 94 kills in John Wick 1, 2 and 3 films (Screenrant.com), and even more in Part 4, it was and still is a bit ridiculous. It is impossible to have so many hitmen in each of the cities covered, in reality. (Two other groups are killing each other in this Part 4 and so more had died outside of John's hands.).

2. There was no accounting for the number of rounds of ammo John used. I had watched Mission Impossible 5 yesterday, I think the best of the series. There, the number of rounds were well accounted for and I like that realism and the need to switch to other solutions instead of continuously firing your fantasy pistol.

3. We should stop the stupid trope that a blind Donnie Yen can be that good at killing. It utterly unrealistic.

4. It's a fact that this film glorifies violence, no other way about it.

5. It is ridiculous that there had been that many killings in this series and there was no involvement of the police?

6. One cannot jump out of the third storey, fall horizontally onto a pickup, denting it significantly and then walk off as if you are still alive. > How would the different age groups rate this: > Children: Not rated for them.

> Teens: Not rated for them. > Young adults: Excellent. > Medium-age adults: Good. > Older adults: Average. > My rating: 4/5 (no half scores). Worth to watch in a cinema.
