Absolute carnage: The movie is a mill of gory, bloody mayhem. A person slashes their own wrists; the resulting blood turns bath water into a crimson well. They just couldn't leave it alone.
Guillermo del Toro cinematographer Dan Lausten creates an astonishing expressionistic blend to complement John's fantastical underground world, from neon-soaked nightclubs to ample silhouettes. The last time we saw John Wick, the Baba Yaga, the man who it is said once killed three men in a bar with a pencil. Along with the sequel giving us.
As John has to take out a target or escape from other criminals trying to do the same to him, the film, like the games, always emphasizes the scale of. From there, the movie sets about repeating the motions of the original. John Wick (Reeves - you know it, baby!) retires again, yet is drawn back in. "John Wick is a man of focus, commitment and sheer will. The stories you hear about this man, if nothing else, have been watered down", or so the legend goes. If great action scenes flow like a dance, then the John Wick movies move to an EDM beat. Each set piece in this burgeoning franchise moves to precise rhythms, punctuated by constant, rapid.
Trailer John Wick: Chapter 2
I came in thinking this would be a crudy sequel just like most sequels now adays. It accomplished everything it needed to do and much more. Starring Keanu Reeves, Riccardo Scamarcio, Ruby Rose, Common, Claudia Gerini, Lance John Wick was overrated.
Let's just address that elephant in the room now; the movie was filled to the brim with stylish gun-fu action but. He wanted a new life, a clean start. And he had it for a season. Just like the first Wick pic, this is a bone-breaking ballet of brutality.
