JOHN WICK: 4 (The Baba Yaga, High Table + Ending) EXPLAINED
Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 03. 2023
- Hey guys, what’s happening? Niyat here with film comics explained. As heavily requested, today we are going to be exploring John Wick 4, the recently released instalment in the John Wick series.
Directed by Chad Stahelski who helmed the previous three films, and starring the Legendary Keanu Reeves, the late Lance Reddick, Ian McShane, Donnie Yen, Laurence Fishburne, Hiroyuki Sanada, Shamier Anderson, Rina Sawayama, Scott Adkins and Bill Skarsgård, the newest chapter is the bombastic icing on the proverbial cake that is the John Wick series.
The latest entry into the franchise is the encapsulation of what happens when an unstoppable force (in this case Wick), meets an immovable object (The High Table) an illuminati like shadow organisation with seemingly unlimited power and influence.
Ambitious and bigger in every way, the 4th film offers a larger scope, consolidating on all the world building, action and character work that has come to represent the series. Coming in with a runtime of 2 hours and 49 minutes, it is the longest entry in the series, the most epic, probably the most ingenious for its use of cinematography, and the one that pushes John to the limit.
I know we have 3 films before this one, so to make sure everyone is absolutely caught up with everything, in this video we are going to explore the story so far, why John Wick is such a deadly force, what happens in John Wick 4, the ending, to the future of the John Wick series as a whole.

I don’t think John is dead due to the location of the bullets. Caine shot John in the same spots as the doctor told John to shoot him at the start of the third film
OOOOOOOOH SHIT! Lets go :)
HOLY SHIT
WTF YOU’RE RIGHT I DIDN’T EVEN NOTICE THAT
If you didn’t catch it in the movie, there was a bit of dialogue before or in the church where John talks to Caine and implies there’s a way they can help each other.
John and Caine colluded to rig the duel - and Winston was probably the one who figured out the loophole. The Marchese tried to make the duel a binary outcome by using Caine’s daughter as leverage to force Caine to duel John. Caine, John, and Winston realized they could all get what they wanted by working together because they all hated the high table. Winston likely came up with the plan where John would be in a position to kill the Marchese. Neither Caine nor John would go for lethal shots, and John wouldn’t shoot on the third round to lure the Marchese in for the coup de grace. Remember that Caine demanded that the Marchese free him and his daughter before he handed his pistol over, and the Harbinger witnessed the Marchese agree. Only once Caine got the guarantee he wanted, he gave his pistol to the Marchese. Winston then distracted the Marchese by mocking him, and John shot him with his third bullet to win. Yes, Caine’s bullets were all in non-lethal areas. And if it wasn’t clear that they were colluding, Caine helped John get to the top of the stairs so that the plan could be put in motion. I think Winston masterminded this whole scheme - he’s a chess player.
My theory is that John is alive for any potential 5th movie, and the grave was put up as cover to make people think that he died, so he could leave the underworld.
Very nice. These movies are better written the people give them credit, that's for sure.
RIP Lance Riddick - Commander Zavala, Charon - it was always awesome to hear him say 'Mr Wick'
Let's not forget his exceptional role as Albert Wesker
Or agent Broyles on Fringe
@@physchir Or Cedric Daniels on "The Wire."
His accent was perfect
Is it Commander or should it be concierge
"How pissing off John Wick is the fastest way to meet your maker"!!! That is sooooo spot on true, lol!!
Thanks for your support and love always. You know I'm a very private person do you wanna communicate more...
@@user-yb8ib7bo9hFunny...
This series is amazing because each movie literally picks up where the last leaves off. If you have a John Wick marathon it'll be like watching one long continuous movie
Thanks for your continuous love and support dear ❤️❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine ??
I couldn,t stop watching once I found it on youtube.
I saw the first one out of curiosity then kept going till the end of three. I knew he wasn,t dead. Can,t wait till I can,t see #-4. I,m bedbound so I can,t get out.
Gotta wait till it comes on Tubi or CZcams, one of the two. 👍
@@KeanuReeves-ct3mi piss off scammer
Loved all the movies
I mean…there was like a year break in between 3 and 4
Best one of the series. The entire sequence in the house was like a live action Hotline Miami.
OMG THAT SOUNDS AWESOME 👍👍
Or Door Kickers.
That scene was inspired by some indie game folks play
I thought I was the only one who thought so
Glad to hear there are other who thought the same about the hotline Miami reference
This movie was an absolute shoot-em-up masterpiece.. A few scenes had me halfway out of my seat. I'm going to watch it again this weekend.
Most scenes had me half way out of my seat wanting to leave. Stunt men waiting their turn to be hit, holding a gun but not shooting until Keanu was facing them and THEN running up to him with a gun so he could take it off them etc etc.
My suspension of disbelief was put on suspension VERY early in the film. Near the end of the film i was that angry i was almost screaming at the screen "Just shoot him in the fucking head!".
I love the shoot out scene in the house where the camera was over the top and was shot in one take like a video game 🤩🤩
I love how the underworld becomes more extravagant and over the top.
I wish they had just SOME consequences for the High Table causing such chaos and terror in the public with the world governments being fed up with them.
I really wanted them to go down too.
Yeah, if that were to happen it i think the underworld high table wouldn’t last that long, maybe they would have been eliminated before the 4th film.
@@zagreus1249 I always thought to myself that as long as the World Government's power and money isn't interrupted or disturbed, they're happy to turn a blind eye towards them and maybe even Government Agencies may turn to them for help.
@@filmcomicsexplained Perhaps that would be a good segway to end the story of John Wick and continuing the Akira story. John Wick in hiding, Mr. Nobody hired to find him/proof of his death. Secret Government alphabet agencies utilizing Wick to disband, permanently, the High Table once and for all. A final conclusion for Wick and we could see what happens between Caine and Akira. John, truly at peace, with no High Table to potentially seek retribution.
@@Sainte305 In that situation it would just be replacing one bad entity with another and there's no way they would leave John alive so no peace.
The reference/tribute to The Warriors was aweseome. Caine's blue rose bouquet at the end was really poetic too. If you don't know, the blue rose symbolizes something physically unobtainable or out of reach. Caine almost saw/spoke to his daughter, but then we see Akira with the knife while he's carrying the blue roses meaning his daughter was always metaphorically/physically out of reach.
Thanks for your continuous love and support dear ❤️❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine ??
that's a good point I didn't notice that, tbh I hope we get another film but if we don't in my head Caine dies that was the original filmed scene but in end they cut it in case they wanted to do an Akira spinoff who they viewed as the next John Wick so just for now unless otherwise I think he defo dies
it is even foreshadowed before. caine provokes akira after her father died, after she leaves he holds his mouth, the gesture implies "i shouldn't have said that, i'll regret it later"
@@oizson98 That seemed more like the regret of killing a friend, not fearing Akira's revenge. I'm mainly talking about what the blue rose bouquet symbolizes.
RIP Lance!!
Not super familiar with his full body of work but came to love him from these movies!!!
The amount of confirmed onscreen kills John Wick has through the four movies must be some kind of world record.
339 kills
@@victorparkinson3316 He has over 100 kills in the first 3 movies, each.
more than michael myers lol
How many does rambo have?
I think Rambo may have topped John Wicks lifetime tally in his last movie… turning most of them into paste
Keanu Reeves and Chad Stahelski discussed how the story borrows elements from Dante's Inferno. I think each stage of the story has some decent representation. Well at least it was obvious what purgatory was.
This is cool, I might have to compare the two and see if I can make a video on it. Winston would I guess be Virgil, Keanu is Dante, and Helen is Beatrice. His trials throughout the films are him going through each stage. Ending with Hell, which would explain the insanity of the Paris sequence!
@@filmcomicsexplained it was during the Vanity Fair interview
@@filmcomicsexplainedin the Divine Comedy however, it starts with Dante going into hell and making his way out of it into purgatory and then heaven.
Have you ever read Dante's Inferno? It's just him making satire of the politics of his time. It's not some literary feat to rival all others.
As disappointed/broken-hearted as I am that it's over, I am also like "Damn, Keanu has given his all to the full-on films (and those before) and has suffered numerous injuries for it. He's 58 now and I doubt anyone would blame him if he wanted to end it on a high and do more sedate things! :) Then again, he might say "fuck it!" and want to carry on, either way, it's an honour to watch him perform!
"But on Sunday, Lionsgate’s Drake told The Hollywood Reporter that a John Wick 5 is no longer out of the question.
“There’s a will and there’s an openness. And you could certainly interpret that ending in different ways,” said Drake. “We’re all going to take a tiny rest here and then scratch at ideas about whether there’s a credible way to get into five. But there’s no guarantee.”
There's a chance for a 5th but of course that will definitely be the final since Keanu Reeves isn't getting any younger. Plus, even if they wan to make a new one they will have to have a great story to bring him back. there are some questions left unanswered so who knows.
I honestly want it to end here, I'd rather it end on a high then a lackluster 5th film. The ending felt like a satisfying end to John's arc as he got to die a free man and not a man trapped by the table.
It's not finished lol
There is no way a shot to the arm, shoulder and near stomach killed him. Plus there is John wick 5 movie coming out
Personally, I'd like to see him in a supporting role in a sequel. Feels like John and Keanu alike earned some peace. But to have him as a mentor to a new protagonist? Imagine the look on everyone's faces when they learn not only is John Wick alive, he's trained the person coming for them.
Yeaa this was absolutely a great movie 🎬 I enjoyed it. I didn't like him dead at the end. That hurt my feelings 😪 but he gave it every thing he had. 💥💥💥💥💨💨
I love how everything represents death here
the number 4
the black horse among the 4 horsemen
the dead mans hand
and
I love how John died between the stairs which reflects on the question that whether did he went to heaven or hell? the answer which remains a mystery.
Reminds me of Light yagami wherein he died at the middle of the stairs, which is a consequence of every death note user wherein they can neither go to heaven or hell.
There's no question where he went.. he went nowhere, since heaven and hell are imaginary.
Yes omg the Light Yagami death scene was so similar im glad someone else picked up on it.
@@simplylethul Or maybe John Wick went to Purgatory.
@@Darth_Vader258 also a made up place.
@@simplylethul That's just *YOUR* opinion.
In the end, the dog looks at something before his owner leaves with it, could that have a meaning because the dog gets a close up too.
Yeah no meaning in John Wick's dog getting a close up for no reason at his grave. He's dead because 3 gunshot wounds from a blind man reliant on the sound that John makes to aim. Meaning John was in full control of where he got shot. Yeah, they were just showing us their shoes scrape across pebbles for fun. Like everything in this movie is a clue to a deeper meaning. In the end, Caine was the one clinging to the dead, himself and his old life. It's gone, it's been gone, and it's never coming back. John actually gets to go free after he himself kills John Wick and fully gives up that life. Anything else would be betraying his oath to live on to honor his dead wife. People just refuse to pay attention and consume the obvious.
@@CodeguruX woah nice analysis but chill a little, not everyone will have seen it like that because it was going pretty fast! It’s understandable if many think he’s gone, it was made out to seem that way at face value!
Caine shoots John right where John shot Doc in JW3, to keep Doc out of trouble with the high table.
Something off to the left ABSOLUTELY gets the Dog’s attention. If you remember at the end of 3, the dog sensed Wick fell and was being taken to the Bowery king, and ran out of the continental, right to Wick in the shopping cart. I believe that, the “who knows” as to where he is, and the King’s laugh after realizing it’s a fake, points to him alive.
Also, Lionsgate isn’t going to let them get away with not making a part 5.
Dog spin-off?
DUDE, this movie was frickin awesome!
169 minutes!
It's epic AF!
I went to the bathroom twice because I didn't want to miss all the action.
The movie had several homages to other epic action adventure films:
The Bowery King blowing out the match and cutting to the desert was inspired by Lawrence Of Arabia.
The assassin's hearing the song Nowhere To Run on the radio when they go after John Wick was from The Warriors.
The dueling pistols was inspired by the climax to The Good The Bad And The Ugly.
However, this is not the end for John Wick as Chad Stahelski and Keanu Reeves have confirmed that they will be back for a fifth and final chapter in the franchise. Now, John Wick can get all the rest he needs.
Great breakdown! I love the John Wick franchise. It's amazing and much deeper than people give it credit for. It has heart, emotion, honor, friendship, code, mythology etc. The lore and world building is incredible. Great characters. And these movies were filmed brilliantly. No shaky cam, no quick cuts, close ups etc. You can actually see all the action and everything that is going on. Keanu and all the actors doing their own action, fight scenes, driving etc makes these movies even better!
Hello, Selle. How are you doing today?
I would love to see a prequel to the first movie. How he got out, where he started etc.
I’m just wondering who would play the young Keanu reeves
This is what I’d love to see as well. I’m fine with the ambiguous ending. I want to see that impossible task play out for real.
Just saw this over the weekend.. It was entertaining and the tracker's dog was great to watch! Definitely a good sequel!! What's next in the series??😃
Continental Series
My theory is Charlie stops by to pick up John and takes him away to recover, while the grave has an empty casket. So many characters in this franchise deserve there own movie.
I would watch a john wick extended universe because these shows are dope as hell
I love the shoot out scene in the house where the camera was over the top and was shot in one take like a video game 🤩🤩
If Keanu doesn't want to continue being John Wick, Mr. Nobody could use a new name ;) .
@8:53- The expression on Gionna D'Antonio's face was priceless when she learned that _her own brother_ sent the Grim Reaper after her!
their are many rules in dueling one of my favorite is once a shot has been fired a man has unlimited time to fire their shot if they survive. Since john not only didn't fire his third and fire shot but also survive it he was able to kill the marquis point blank and no rule breaking, though they make it seem like john just trick him on coming closer if the marquis would of tried to shot him in the end he would of break the rules of dueling regardless of john living or dying also, people pay a high price for their hubris in this case death.
This really has some of the best action set pieces in the franchise. Keanu & Donnie are absolutely astounding as well as Hiroyuki in his brief screen-time; massive props to the stunt performers who have to do the even tougher moments. And Chad Stehelski continues to be a grand action director; little wonder he’s been Keanu’s friend for almost 25 years. And RIP to the great Lance Reddick
Thanks for your continuous love and support dear ❤️❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine ??
Really loved the action scenes AND the twists & turns in the plot. Ending where the Marquis was tricked into picking up pistol 4 Coup de Grace & shot POINT BLANK by JW; even from JW's left hand
I think he is left handed. In the first movie he signs for Daisy with his left hand.
Just realized Donnie Yen like playing the blind man. Like in the Rogue one
Yeah thats twice now! lol
This John Wick movie/sequel was epic just like the previous 3 movies.
Facts Damian. Big facts!
@@filmcomicsexplained 😎👊🏾
Excellent job! I really like how you put the 4th film in context. By briefly reviewing John Wick's journey through the 1st three films. I don't know how?! But they went even bigger & bolder in the 4th entry of the franchise. John Wick is 1 of the rare movie franchises. That maintains a high standard through all of the sequels. The world they have created is so rich & compelling. I sincerely hope this isn't the last time we see Keanu Reeves revise this character. Just leaves you wanting more.
I absolutely love this series. I can't think of another series that compares to this in terms of successive storytelling and creativity. I really hope we get more. I watched it 3 times over the weekend and took my daughter the third time. Our showing was at midnight and she was glued to the screen the whole time, hard for a kid with such a long movie, but John Wick commands attention!
I still have the visual of the bad guy with the arrow in his knee, pinning him up, after being shot in the head by John burned into my eyes. Such a badass moment, dude was just hanging out. :)
You've heard of Clint Eastwood and Dirty Harry I hope.
This is such a damn good movie. Everyone should go see this in Theaters. Just a masterpiece
Loved this series of movies. And as much as I'd watch John Wick 10, I think John passing away on his terms (sort of since he was pushed back into everything, but playing out the hand your dealt) is a way that works. If he's found alive I hope it's a quiet life of peace to finish days.
I had always wondered if it was going to end as John becoming the new Elder. Since they couldn't beat him they'd offer him the top spot as a token. But I don't think he'd have accepted. I can only imagine a high table and vast underworld being ruled by John Wick.
I saw this in IMAX last Sunday. It was brilliantly well executed. Especially the scene with the overhead view.
OHHHH I LOVE THAT SCENE TOO
I was laughing through the whole thing because I legit felt like I was playing Diablo III.
There was a theory put forth by some that John Wick unofficially takes place in the Matrix universe and that John Wick is actually Neo who was placed back in the Matrix and since he is "the one", he is capable of extraordinary feats. While this is just a theory, there are plenty of supporting details. For example, both universes feature allies that are named after Greek mythology, which each have very specific connotations. In the Matrix, Neo is befriended by "Morpheus", which according to Greek mythology is the "god of dreams." In John Wick, he is befriended by "Charon", who according to Greek mythology is the gatekeeper of the underworld. Kind of makes you think. There are other supporting similarities, but you can find videos on youtube that go over them all. While this is most likely just coincidences, its very intriguing.
Well, it would certainly be a far better Matrix sequel than that last piece of shit we got, LoL.
What
If Hollywood still had balls, they'd pursue this and half the world would be pleased, I believe
❤❤🎉
Doomsday Virus (DC)
Oooooo now that is a great idea. Get it Niyat
If the Academy Awards don't have the sense to create a category that awards stunt work/choreography, then something is wrong. The cinematography and action in this movie is on another level.
I still remember seeing the first John Wick, it could have been another passable summer action flick. But now we got a solid franchise that's managed to pull out 4 solid films.
Also on the point of the franchise honouring the old Martial arts and preserving action, you missed to mention how it also evolved how Hollywood handle guns, no more infinite ammo as John runs out of ammo several times and we get to see how technically satisfying tactical reloads are as well. It's almost a martial art in itself. We get hollywood finally paying attention to how guns should be handle from firing stances, forms, how platforms like rifles and shotguns are reloaded. Down to pistols.
Would love to see him play Constantine again.
Personally I would like a prequal showing John's impossible mission to get out. Have John, Koji and Kaine all teaming up to help John get out of the life, and John needing to go to Santino for help.
I'd love to see a prequel with John wick completing his impossible task.
Excellent recap! I discovered aspects previously unrecognized by me. Thank you for such an indepth look. I haven't seen Ch. 4 yet, but will shortly. Thanks again! Great job!
absolutely love this universe. i'm usually not really a fan of action movies, but i've been hooked on this franchise since John wick 1. i'm excited that there are some spin offs in the works and potentially a 5th movie.
Best film essay ever no one has approached John's universe like that! Wonderful job.
Hiroyuki Sonata (deffo spelt wrong) steals the show every film he's in. Phenomenal actor.
Can't wait for the ballerina john wick spinoff
I honestly had no idea they made a part for and I’m excited to watch it and I’m glad I had no idea. Because now I didn’t have to wait for it. Nice.
They could definitely make two handfuls of shows and movie spin offs from John Wick 4
I'd like to see Akira having her own spinoff. She seems to be an interesting character.
Thanks for your support and love always. You know I'm a very private person do you wanna communicate more...
Thanks for the look behind the scenes !!
This was so well explained. I watched it as an action flick but explained it so deep that I have to rewatched this series with new eyes. Well done! Subbed!
Keanu is a real man, this is the perfect ending to the series and no amount of money would entice him to ruin the francise.
And he’s such a dear man to those around him. He just bought t-shirts for the stunt team; cheekily they all list how many times they die 😅
Yessss I already loved the movies but you just made me love them EVEN more 😂 You literally covered everything great detail
Gotta appreciate Reeves weapons handling skills, for a civilian, he is as efficient, if not more so than elite forces operators. The various sidearms and rifles he uses in all 4 movies is staggering, not to mention nunchucks, knives, pencils, a book and a playing card 😂
A masterpiece of a series, honestly don't think I've watched an action series that was so intoxicatingly brilliant.
Thanks for your continuous love and support dear ❤️❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine ?
Well explained with accurate information and precise facts! Keep it up!
Excellent work. Masterfully put together.
It's always a welcome sight to see that you have uploaded video!
Thanks for tuning in ATJonzie!
Luv all Keanu's amazing work & Cant wait for more sequels .👍🏻💖👍🏻
Thanks for the loving and amazing comment. Your words are so beautiful dear It’s nice speaking to you from here ❤🥰
Where are you from???
Thank you Lance for the Character you gave us.
I really want that bulletproof suit
Thanks for your support and love always. You know I'm a very private person do you wanna communicate more...
Man, the dragon fire sweep in the building and the homage to The Warriors was just too epic.
Thank you for the specific breakdown from the first John Wick till John Wick 4...I enjoyed it
Hello 👋 greetings, nice to meet you how are you doing?
It was BREATHTAKING to see him kick ass one more time..I saw what you did there😊.. Please do an ending explained on The Neon Demon...
Amazing work as always!
These videos are perfection, I just gotta get my weekly FCE fix 👌
Excellent breakdown!
I absolutely love that little conversation he has... "that was a pretty good fight, eh?"
For a man of a few words, John Wick knows a hell lot of languages including sign language. He is Mr. WORLDWIDE!
Really enjoyed the ending of this series with John Wick 4. Such a great end for John and beyond glad the Marquee got his dome rocked! I just wish he would’ve suffered a bit more.
John Wick 5 should be a prequel showing all the nice guy shit John did to earn all these favors that happened in the previous films. He helps Lawrence Fishburn move on a Saturday and brings a pizza. He watches Halle Berry's dogs for a couple of weeks while she's away. Fixes Winston's bad back... What a great guy...
The greatest movie series of it's kind.
Fantastic Man !!! This was dynamite!!! Thank you so much!!! Yes this movie was just incredible and I agree it’s just insane how it’s so ridiculous but they pull it off. They really do. Even the continuous rolling down the steps was fun and palatable as it served the purpose of having to restart from a level like a video game. Thank you so much for clearing up why he owed a blood oath to Santino. I didn’t know and was forever frustrated with the loose end. No more loose ends thanks to you and this video. My son hasn’t seen this one so I’m going tonight to see it for a 2nd time.
Thanks for your continuous love and support dear ❤️❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine ??
Just what I was waiting for!!!!
Brilliant review and insights for a brilliant movie series
I’ve been hearing good things can’t wait to see it.
Love your stuff brother, keep it coming!
Thanks for your continuous love and support dear ❤️❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine ?
I believe the ending was more symbolic of them burying that part of John Wick tied to the High Table since he finally got out. From a story point of view, John has yet to fulfill his goal of killing all those involved. Also Caine shot John in the same spots the doctor told him to in the previous movie 😏
This is the best video for intense dreambuilding-sessions I´ve ever seen
awesome awesome. I haven't had a chance to see the last one and I'm glad to know what happened. John Wick is just awesome!
Great video Thank you
the same long shots with what you can actually see as fatigue over the fights is what really sells it even if its hugely over the top. its same with the Daredevil tv show i still remember the long hallway+stairs scene where its just 1 continuous shot no cuts of him just fighting and using the environment but also as it continued you could see tiredness. it helps ground the fights even though they are so over the top that you just want to believe them.
Thanks for your continuous love and support dear ❤️❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine ?
Im very excited to see this. Two hours and forty nine minutes will go by quick.
rest in power Lance, you were a Boss o7
It is weird in a way that his character is kilked in the movie. Talk about foreshadowing
Yeah I've seen one two and three the music in the first one caught my but it's always a thrill to watch John and the richness of the
I watched this today, loved it.
You should do resistance fall of man and 2 and 3 explained
I sincerely hope that a John Wick 5 comes along and that he and Winston and the masters can find a way to end this story that in way that is good for the world.
Brilliant
Thank you
Keanu Reeves is the best Batman we never got.
Thanks for your continuous love and support dear ❤️❤️

I don’t think that John wick die but the baba yaga did he was finally free no longer the killer and no longer under the table.
17:58 not only that but able to move and react so fast that the camera isn’t able to see them move unless they force themselves to slow down, meanwhile I’m hobbling around like an old man when I’m in my 40s, granted I’m disabled but still it’s both sickening and funny on a cosmic level seeing someone that’s on his way to been double my age that’s a motion blur to the human eyes.
I actually like to think the 1st movie is the results of all these others happening, I know that's not the case but I actually like the narrative that Vigo tells the story of John Wick and why he was so feared and he says what John did laid the very foundation of what they became. I actually think that would make the most sense especially cause in the first movie he constantly is saying he is retired, so everything is leading up to that first movie. Especially because it is stories of how one man did an impossible task, getting out when none of them could only to be roped in that all he wanted was what was taken from him. I absolutely love the movies though and I do enjoy how they were written :) I'm no writer so I'm sure it wouldn't fit as much as I would like to think.
I love the line by Fishburn, “Sometimes you got a cut a M’Fer”
Also, the only other person that could come close to the blind assassin that Donny Yen played is Rutger Howard in the movie Blind Fury. Even the cane sword carried over beautifully. Caine’s character felt like a small homage to that film!
Would love for Keanu to do a remake of Hardboiled, would be amazing. Or maybe A Better Tomorrow with him and Tom Cruise in the Chow Yun Fat role. I like JW as its more of the energetic gun fights seen in old John Woo movie.
I just rented & watched JW4 last night from CZcams...great film, loved it.
Great job!
I saw this in theaters with friends while on a brief vacation in central california last week, it really is a great movie in my opinion. Funny too, managed to send the whole theater including myself at some points.
This movie was phenomenal. RIP Lance Reddick.
Just seen all 4 for the first time and they are amazing i can say one thing that i would critic is certain scenes just dont seem realistic in real life but besides that these movies had me glue to the tv and i love how they all pick up right where it left off and it hard to hate a keanu Reeves movie he is amazing and we share the same bday
Bring on John Wick 5 I'm ready for it
Lets go!
Good presentation may the ghost of John Wick live as such
