- John Wick has done the impossible (or at least... the very rare) he's managed to deliver a fourquel in, you guessed it, John Wick Chapter 4 that is every bit as good as its predecessors. Finishing a trilogy is hard enough, but just how did John Wick manage to stay relevant and round off an awesome series of four movies? I break down how the heart remains, the excellent stuntwork, the expanded characters, the spin off potential and John Wick beyond! Full spoilers...

John Wick. It proves that practical effects, choreography, and stunt work isn't dead. The audience craves it.
Nailed it. The John Wick movies are action cinema at its best.
I think Top Gun Maverick also showed that too. Both movies had a lot of practical stunt work, actors that were willing to commit 110% effort into delivering a memorable movie experience, and both movies respectfully concluded their respective franchise.
@@KevinKim416 I really like practical effects too but comic book movies aren’t for you then because it literally involves planets gods and different dimensions you want them too actually hire a fucking alien army?
@@sgtroach1510 yes lol
@@sgtroach1510 there’s a lot you can do practical affect wise with those. Like using models. It just cost a lot.
the long take topdown scene with the dragon's breath was amazing. peak cinema in my opnion.
And when one guy got lit up and started running around I knew he was gonna run back on screen and get another slug and I was laughing while waiting for it.
Immediately thought of hotline Miami. Shit was actually perfect
I've seen it three times now and you can like, feel in the air that everyone is having a great time during that scene.
@@elton9721 Fuck you, I was gonna say this, get out of my damn head
shotgun shooting fireballs...some metal slug type shit.truly badass.
I really hope the Lionsgate executives don’t strong arm a Chapter 5, but knowing how studio greed works, I think they’ll try to.
the cast wont return, that's for sure
As far i know, this is the grand finale and, as far as I’m concerned, it should stay that way.
@@wifine1951 Reeves already implied he would be down to do another.
John Wick character is gone but the Scornverse is still alive.
One character is gone but the rest are not.
If he returns to kill the 12 members of the high table harkening back to the impossible task from the first movie, I’ll be ok with it. But it must end there.
John wick- He grieved
John wick 2- He Raged
John wick 3- He bargained
John wick 4- He Accepted
John wick 5- He Resurrected
They better not let Keanu turn into a grasp without at least 3 more John Wick movies
Jesus Wick.
Resurrection? Gives me Matrix 4 vibes, let's not do that...
Yeah last time Keanu Reeves resurrected things didn't go that well in the movie reviews, if you know what I mean.
We don’t need 5. That’s very risky and would probably be bad considering 4 is already the perfect ending
If the studio forces a 5th movie, I really hope it’s a prequel about John’s impossible task from Viggo. I think that would help everything come full circle and cement it even more as one of, if not the, greatest action franchises of all time
Yeah, but the problem is your imagination tends to be better than what they can actually do. They have done good here, like setting up the pencil then following through on it…. But the job had to be just killing a ton of people, see the assasination in JW2
Same page here. With current CGI, deep fakes, and makeup it would be very easy to find a younger, faster actor who is the same general build as Keanu, and then deep fake a young Keanu's face and voice onto it.
@@KuntaKinteToby you do realize you have to gain Keanu's approval for this deepfake and I dont think he's gonna be okay with his face being placed in a movie that he's not in due to the stand in. He isn't that kind of a sell out and on top of that, imagine the PR backlash once the audience learns of that shit. Deepfakes have gained quite a bad rep over the years.
@@rivy-lurk-869 What do you mean, he would be in it, as a voice actor? You haven't seen A Scanner Darkly have you...
But we saw the impossible task, we just saw it as the duel and the war beforehand just to get there. It is my belief that the reason for the entire war at the end was to give the fans "The Impossible Task" without de-aging anyone
not gonna lie, Charon was my favorite side character, the way he presents himself every time he speaks to someone, is so formal, but then comes number 3
and he's just as deadly as any other assassin, i was gutted when i heard lance died and just as sad to see Charon die.... i would've liked to see a movie based on Charons past
Me too. Miss him. He was so damn cool.
He was so damn sofisticated in the first movie calling for "noise complains"
Lance Reddick, Charon’s actor, died about a month ago, rest in peace.
Omg same. Im so sad to hear of his passing. In real life and in the movie
"I could be wrong."
Such a deep line. I felt that.
I think what sets John Wick 4 apart from the other "Fourquels" is that, to me, the series is actually a Trilogy, beggining with chapter 2 and with the first one being more like a pitch or a pilot for the true series to come. The second chapter could easily be refited to be the first movie with just a few tweeks and the other movies are escalations of the consequences from this film, not the first.
love this take!
I think you've hit the nail on the head with this one! The first movie is definitely its own standalone thing, and 2, 3, and 4 are the second story.
That’s how I saw the first one. It was a showcase of the world, the characters, and it’s rules, but the actual long term plot truly started in the second one.
Absolutely correct. This is what I’ve been saying for a while.
Precisely this, John Wick 1 is essentially a “proof of concept”. 
I thought Chapter 2 was really good. It fully immerses us in the world of the High Table and the Continental hotels while Chapter 1 only gave us small glimpses. Plus the ending where John kills Santino in the hotel was incredible.
Yeah it set up chapter 3 really well
All first 3 are top notch
I think the same ^^ It's a awesome sequel to part 1 and set's up the third movie perfectly!
thats what i love about this series. all 4 movies are so good that so many people have completely different rankings of these movies.
@@wogboy5607 True! :D
John Wick is Not a Boogeman He is the one you send to kill a fucking Boogeman
I’m all for a chapter 5 If the movie makes itself necessary and a worthy addition, otherwise they should just leave it open ended like it is currently
I'm hoping chapter 5 reveals John is Doomguy... just killing demons in hell lmao.
Or that he has become a legendary Househusband dedicated to a new life... Keep him out of the underworld and fully committed to enjoying retirement... Like FULLY committed to where normies are like, did he just hop an overpass for a coupon? Kool aid man his neighbors fence to catch a steak he launched? Something crazy with more pedestrian stunts.
@@trasen5626 and then john was the zombies...
how is it open ended lol
@@cameronclaypool9133, Coz John and Caine (I can't remember who shot where 1st?) Shot each other the same way as The Dr (who's The Key Maker in The Matrix) told John to shoot him! Basically a Non Fatal Shot! And then you've got the Dog at the End looking the other Way n one of LF or IMcH saying is John in Heaven Or Hell?
I feel the subtitle for John Wick 3 actually makes sense, Parabellum means: prepare for war, and being the penultimate film before John Wick 4, where they go to war with the high table, it makes sense
Perfectly said
I agree. 1 and 2 feel like one story,and feel more intimate in scale. While 3 and 4 are the second story borne out of the events of the first one, and are more grand and outward facing in scale.
Plus it’s a good pun, with it also referring to 9mm Parabellum.
@@FAL_Enthusiast yeah haha true. Love too shoot me some 9mm
John's friendship and dynamic with Caine was so great. You could easily feel the bond their history carried and wasn't forced with flashbacks or long expositions
John Wich Chapter 4 is this year's Top Gun: Maverick. It's not a perfect movie, but it's an undeniable masterclass of the genre.
Also thought of Maverick while watching JW4 - dying genre of classic action flicks just got another masterpiece
Nah not at all.
What i loved about Caine’s character is in the kitchen scene he looks like he’s incapacitating his enemies with his cane instead of killing cuz he’s there by force not cuz he wants to
As much as I liked Mr. Nobody he’s the only one I thought could’ve been more fleshed out. It makes me wonder if he’s gonna appear in The Ballerina since it’s said to take place between 3 and 4. I want to know what exactly brought him into the fold.
The watch cap makes me think ex-military.
Ana de Armas has confirmed that she's shot scenes wih Keanu. So Wick does make a cameo.
If u analyse the movie you’ll realise that he’s after John because he wants retirement, he wants to buy a 48.3 million pound villa and settle down with his dog. If ur asking where I found that in the movie, it’s where he looks through his book in Osaka Continental. There’s a page with the house and it’s price.
I completely lost my mind when he was ripping that sick drift in the ‘Cuda around that island of enemies while shooting at them during the arc d’triumph sequence. So goddamn cool!
It’s so weird to say “I don’t want a John Wick 5”, because I just LOVE the saga
But that’s why I don’t want an other sequel: I don’t want them to ruin it, and John deserves peace after all he’s gone through.
Only if it has Donnie Yen.
How about a prequel
Not only are they great films, it inspires me that so many people love what they do.
A spin-off movie with Caine and Akira would be the perfect continuation to this new potential WCU (Wick Cinematic Universe)
I’m just really glad that this franchise right now is showing that great choreography, a simple story, and cool characters are what people want to see more of, rather than cgi fests, and quippy comedy. In the future, I hope there’s more franchises like John Wick made. I never thought that we’d get something on a mainstream level in the same vein as The Raid and other classics doing so well. Really hoped a company as big as Marvel would’ve done things like this with a character like Shang-chi. But, leave it to Wick to amaze us more. Love to see it. Seriously.
EDIT: I also really hope this is where they end it. Just continue with your spin-offs, fleshing out this world that people want more of. But let John’s story end on a high, satisfying note please. Hollywoods gonna Hollywood, and would Rob a grave for money, so it wouldn’t surprise me if it continues with another director or something. But if it stops here, it’ll be one of the greatest action sagas ever.
They intended to make part 5 from from the beginning, and wanted to shoot 4 and 5 back to back. While the ending is a logical end to his story, the build up to it was a little underwhelming, and maybe could be done better. So I'm hoping for sequel
@@gilbertoflores7397 I remember. Chad spoke on how he scrapped 5 in favor of ending it here though recently. So I’d be ok with it ending here. It doesn’t need to become another Fast and Furious. Continues past when it should’ve ended, and just becomes so outrageous you don’t ask “how’d they do that?” Anymore, but “why are they doing this”. I don’t want this for Wick.
@@NoirNameless I think because of all the delays, the studio said just shoot 4, and don't do 5. But after the success of 4, 5 is back on the table. It would be hard to do a sequel off of this ending. But this definitely felt like 2 movies mashed into one, we should see more of the high table or their interactions at leat once. So I would love to see more, be it prequels or spin offs. But this would shouldn't end.
this franchise peed on M She U by showing the incredible locations with beautiful colors and lighting effects ....where those disney retards only use greenscreen
Thankfully if Keanu doesn't think the movies worth it he won't do it so short of recasting John wick it won't happen unless Keanu thinks it makes sense
A beautiful review. I do, however, disagree with your assessment of Chapter 2. The scene where John surprises Gianna D’Antonio in her opulent dressing room/bath is visually lush, and feels deeply intimate. I love the moment when he walks around the tub to comfortingly hold her hand before she slowly slips away. It melted my heart. Especially because the audience got to see what a b_tch she could be when she spoke to Mr. Arkoni. I believe John knew that side of her yet offered his compassion to her in her final moments. I believe John is always aware of his own imperfections, especially because he is constantly reliving his memories of Helen as often as he can. Those memories are his happy place. Gianna evoked the name of Helen, and questioned whether or not Helen would still love John is she knew of his assassin persona. Just my two cents. Subscribed.
Beautiful scene with a truly beautiful woman.
Seeing Charon fight next to Wick in 3 is a top 5 moment of the franchise fr
Yeah it’s so sweet when they walk out with the shottys
@Full Fat Videos no offense but why do you pronounce baba yaga so wierd?
This is the most perfect john Wick Movie,and Keanu Reeves Magnum Opus in the Action film Genre.
The actions scenes are the greatest in the entire franchise and eclipse nearly everything we've seen Keanu do in the Matrix Movies.
Donnie Yen and Hiroyuki Sanada's Duel was the most emotional moment in the film for me and I cant wait to see what Chad Stalhelski does with the Ghost of Tsushima movie.
My favorite character in this film was Mr. NOBODY due to how he compared to Caine and John wick on a thematic Level in this world of assassins.
This was the most Beautiful film in the series with the music,the Score,and the way they blend this opulent sense of Grand Beauty and color into each film.
Kinda agree, only part that made if from perfect was him getting hit by a car like a million times and falling down 200 flights of stairs. Getting up like it was nothing 😂
@@hiroxmedia9856 sheer will
Hold up,
GHOST OF TSUSHIMA MOVIE?! :O
Really? Mr. Nobody was, at least initially, one of my least favorite parts of the movie.
A big part of the movies is how there's this underground society of killers who all know each other. I can't fathom how there's this dude no one has heard of, who is immediately nearly on par with the best killer of all time, has a physical notebook that has every face and symbol in it for some reason like he's a super genius and knew what he needed to put on the limited pages, and somehow despite all of this he's only in it for $50 million. With all of those talents, he should have already earned all the money he needs. If not, he should be smart enough to know he can take on five jobs that are each one-fifth the work and have a chance of walking out alive.
That line about the 401K made me cringe in the theater. "Ooh, he's so deadly and financially thrifty." They redeemed him a good bit by the end, but not fully.
@@craigape "A blind man,a A man with a dog,and Mr Wick walk in and take a seat at the table.
One thinks he can Serve his way out.
One thinks he can buy his way out.
And the other thinks he can kill his way out.
Each thinks they have the winning hand.
But what they fail to realize....is that the moment they sat at the table....they already lost."
This line summed how he related to John and Caine in this world.
John,Caine and Mr NOBODY each had an individual desire to leave this life behind them but couldn't.
John was pulled back into the world after the death of his wife,Caine is what John wick couldve been if he accepted The High table's Faustian Offer and turned into the High Table's personal Assassin and lose his soul over time.
Mr NOBODY was a Younger,Hungrier,and Motivated tracker who just wanted to pull off one last Job big enough to leave the life forever but as soon as he made himself available to High table they would've found a way to keep him working for them forever and that's what Caine Warned him about when he said not to take the deal.
It's insane that possibly the best action series in a long while has also top tier lighting, camerawork and design as well as subtle acting, lots of show don't tell, doesn't treat its audience like idiots and manages to top itself with every installment. All the while being headed by stuntmen.
The John Wick movies are how you make movies and do them well.
this shit singlehandedly resurrected my love for movies. I can't sit through a whole movie especially 3 hours long. yes im talking about avatar
The producers and the rest of the team already confirmed that they’re “taking a break” from the main John Wick line, as they are focusing on the two confirmed spin-offs: Ballerina (starring Ana de Armas, which was very briefly hinted at in John Wick 2) and a prequel tv show focusing on the New York Continental. There’s also a possibility for one movie focusing on Caine. It’s why John Wick 4 ended the way it did, both the main movie and the post credits scene.
I would love to see a film about Caine and just let Donnie do everything he has always wanted to do.
When I heard there would be a Chaptet 5, I wasn't expecting John to die in Chapter 4
I was really expecting him to fake his death or something
Now I don't know what to expect from Chapter 5
When Chapter 5 was originally announced, it was going to be filmed back-to-back with Chapter 4 but the plans for Chapter 5 were scrapped during the Covid Pandemic, resulting in the version of Chapter 4 that we got.
Stahelski's recent interviews paint a pretty clear picture that John Wick Chapter 5 doesn't really exist anymore with the head of Lionsgate's comments about Chapter 5 being "back on the table" reinforcing the notion that at some point between Chapter 4 & 5's initial announcement and the release of Chapter 4, that Chapter 5 was indeed scrapped entirely.
The only way to do a John Wick Chapter 5 is to reveal that he faked his death at the end of Chapter 4, or to make it a prequel (at which point it wouldn't take place after Chapter 4, and thus wouldn't really be Chapter 5). It's much more likely, imo, that the IP will try to move on from the character of John Wick and live on in the Ballerina and Continental spin-offs (with Keanu only making subsequent appearances in spin-offs that take place before Chapter 4).
Chad Stahelski (Director) said that it's meant to be ambiguous and up to the viewer if John (himself) died or if the Baba Yaga died, that day. I really like this aspect and I'm really hoping they don't do Chapter 5.
Chad - "Let's just say John Wick has found a way to be at peace. What's the only way John could have gotten out? He's got to make everyone think he's dead, or he has to be dead, or he has to kill off a part of his persona. However you want to take that, that's cool with us."
@@braytonwright6011 I really hope he doesn't come back. a 5th movie would feel like just a cash grab.
@@braytonwright6011 > Chad Stahelski (Director) said that it's meant to be ambiguous
If that was their intent, having the final scene be his two closest allies mourning his death at his gravestone (properly placed alongside Helen, and showing Winston fullfilled John's wishes about his gravestone).
Any "John actually faked his death" crap is going to feel like just as much of a sucker-punch to the fans as what the writers of BBC's Sherlock pulled in Season 3 when they handwaved the fact that they couldn't reasonably explain how Sherlock survived committing suicide by pavement swan-dive off St Bartholomew's Hospital on screen.
@Low Class Saiyan they set up a return in this though. They made a point to not show his body at a point that your sure he is dead. Also in the final scene the dog has a reaction like he just noticed John was nearby. Would not be surprised if that is shown in Ballarina to set up John Wick 5. Would motivate people to watch that movie.
Regarding the visuals: the camerawork is pretty slick as well, and I'm not just talking about a lack of shaky cam. Like, there's a scene where John, driving a car, does an extended circular drift around a cluster of baddies, shooting them down the whole time. That's a cool idea in itself, but when it happens, the camera also swings around the bad guys on the opposite side as John, keeping his car in frame so well it's practically not moving at all. And the shot lasts nearly ten whole seconds! I was giggling like a loon the whole time. And then there's the top-down shotgun sequence, which... Wow.
Not to mention the spectacular music in the shotgun scene and the club scene had some of the best music I've ever heard, they combined it perfectly with the fighting.
i cant believe the soundtrack didnt get a callout in this video! ch4 (really all of them) had some absolutely stunning tunes that got the adrenalin pumping or set the mood perfectly.
I thought the choreography and cinematography was fantastic! But honestly John has to be superhuman. Like seriously how does he get up after falling down three stories onto a car and down all those stairs
Yeah, any one of those hits is about 3-6 months in the hospital
@@ting4758 yeah that fall down the stairs and out of the building would’ve been at least 18 months recovery if not permanent damage. Either way I had fun
The theater I was on all laughted histerically when John yoloed and threw himself out of a window of a 4 storie building, also when he was falling nonstop from the long stairs it was top tier comedy. This movie had everything, top tier action, comedy, interesting characters, beautiful cinematography and a story that served the purpose of pushing the plot forward. Perfect movie to end the series and cement it as one of the best action franquises of all time.
@@alexferrier5732 yeah it was really funny but no one was really sure if it was meant to be funny
I mean they really could've just had him fall out of a building half that size and it would be actually believable, same with the cars hitting him just have fewer cars hit him and it'd be more believable. 5 story building was a bit much
The ending of Chapter 2 gave me so many chills
After chapter 3 I had huge expectations. I was worried it won't live up to my expectations but it actually somehow exceeded them
I'm still waiting for Chad Stahelski's HIGHLANDER
I think one of the reasons why the series is good at 4 is chapters 2 to 4 feel like a 3 act story that kept elevating. While the first was a perfect self-contained story
I was initially confused as to why The Bowry King didn't drop Wick off closer to Sacre Coeur and then I watched the next 45 minutes of the film and was immensely glad that he hadn't
The Lore of High Table is fascinating, and we keep finding new things about this war. And I agree, Aurelio should have come back.
I love the theater, I remember so many people I knew and online saying they hate the theater and “why not watch movies at home?” Like sure ya, but there’s just such a different feeling when watching big movies like this with so many other people who you don’t know, but you know you’re all there for a good time
Never seen a thumbnail spit facts as much as this has. All around one of the best films I've seen in the action genre with how well it integrates the action with the narrative. And every flaw I do have with JW 4 are basically small nitpicks. It makes really hyped for M:I 7 & to see how ppl can top this.
I do like that they left the main series an open book. We saw his lay down, we saw his grave, but Winston's wording makes it seem like John faked it to live in peace.
I love how every time the Ballerina is mentioned it shows No Time To Die Ana De Armas 🤣 Spot on vid!! So many details mentioned are why I loved watching JW4 multiple times!
they give us a hint in the post credits scene how caine gets away from akira at that moment by adding the sound of her blade coming out, caine would hear that and react
Chapter 4 is my favorite movie of the year so far!
Ballerina, will open locked doors never imagined from John's youth. Yes, there will still be John. Yes, there will be action!
I've never seen these movies myself, but my Dad and brother absolutely adore them 😊
You should watch them. They’re great
Watch them so you have something to bond with them over
I am absolutely Speechless on how freaking Good this Movie was!
keep your head up, man! good stuff
What a beautiful video. I loved John Wick so much.shout out to you for acknowledging Lance Reddick.
I was excited with wide eyes walking into the theater. Throughout the whole movie I had the biggest smile on my face. The only thing I felt unfinished was his car. But I felt a sense of finish after it. But I got to tell you, at the end, the dog reacted to something far away, he wouldn't reacted like to just anyone. 😳😳😳
The one thing that most stuck out about chapter 4 was the missing line "John Wick is a man of focus..."I was waiting for that line but it never came.
Hong Kong Massacre being the inspiration for a sequence in a John Wick film after being inspired by John Woo films is great. As someone who loved that game, the sequence was incredible
Getting 3 good ones is almost impossible. 4 is incredible
There's definitely more story to be told in terms of taking down the very top of the High Table. If they do intend to go down that route, it's strange how the made this one feel very final.
I really hope we get a Wick 5 but it's a collection of characters we've already met inspired by John Wick to destroy the High Table for good and that would also show us why John couldn't win. Because he only had himself.
In a sense, I know he had a lot of help from others throughout the movies
@@tylerrice1352 Same. John now has had a satisfying journey, so I don't like the idea of bringing him back again. There are a lot of cool side characters they've introduced though, so I think a movie about them might be pretty cool. It makes me think having John as a mentor to one might have been interesting, but again I think leaving his death intact is better now that they've committed to it.
Thanks for reminding me of that Key & Peele sketch, it's one of my personal favorites and I'll be sure to quote it to exhaustion to all of my friends in the coming weeks and possibly months.
Absolutely. That and the "Prepared for Terries" sketches are my favorite. The continental breakfast one is just so absurd and ridiculous. It's hard to describe why I love it so much. I must've watched it 5 times in a row the first time, dying laughing every time. I've shown it to people who just look at me weird and say "I don't get it, it's just stupid". Yeah...duh...that's why it's hilarious!
I’ve heard from so many people that they didn’t like Chapter 3… I think that’s crazy since it’s literally just more John Wick, in the best way possible. The whole world building was done amazingly
Watching this man go on a rampage is a work of art.
God damn great movie! Keanu is the man! And rip to Lance Reddick 😢 he will be missed.
Brilliant analysis!
i really loved how effortlessly stylish caine was
I think the current storyline could leave it there, but I would love to see a movie about "the impossible task" that he had to do to get out
I don't remember the last time I felt so giddy watching a movie. It's such an unbelievably awesome film
im not even a massive action movie fan really, but I enjoy a well crafted one, and the entire John Wick saga is just *chefs kiss
Great video, as always! Strange not hearing you talk about doctor who
The choreography and cinematography was absolutely epic. I had a great time watching it even though the story was a little ok
Just watched John Wick 4 and it was amazing, my personal favorite movie in the series, beautifully shot, story was really good, the action was epic and overall the movie was a super fun thrill ride, cast was great too, Donnie Yen and Shamier Anderson stole the show, the perfect way to wrap up John Wicks’s story, masterpiece movie, really enjoyed it 👏👏👏👏
I thank John Wick dog. Cuz of him we have unthinkable action move to watch 😂
GREAT!
Personally, Chapter 5 shouldn't come to fruition. 'Chapter 4' ended with John's victory guaranteeing the High Table will be rocked and destabilized, John finally was free of his obligations, and 'died' a free man as he was when he was with Helen. It's poetic, bittersweet - but as good of an ending for this character as there could be.
And the fact that the director let it be ambiguous on purpose so that the viewer can decide if John himself died or just the Baba Yaga - is also a smart and fitting thing to do for its dedicated
The director and Keanu left the ending ambiguous so that the viewer can decide if John Wick found peace in death, or if he found peace in 'burying' Baba Yaga and letting others think he's dead.
I think that's such a nice callback to Winston's line in 3 about you have to die at some point so you can either die a murderer or die as the man you were when you were married and at peace so it just fit him perfect. What else is john gonna do if he's not working with or against the high table. He doesn't have anything else to live for and there's so much in the movie prepping john for a good death that it would cheapen it to try and bring him back somehow. "You saying goodbyes? No, just saying hello." "a good death does not come without living a good life" "I want it to say loving husband"
This is one of the best film series of our time and of all time. I can't think of another series that has 4 movies and gets better after each one.
"That one Scene" left me dizzier than hell, both times I saw it.
I'd love another movie with the Tracker. Such an interesting character.
If there’s a “Chapter 5”, it should be about the impossible task that Viggo gave to John Wick before the first movie
Honestly, Wick 4 would be at the top of my personal list because it finally adds characters that I really start to care for. Of course Wick is great, but I always felt like I wanted more story-wise, since he's not much of a talker (which isn't that big of a problem!). I really enjoyed Caine and Mr. Nobody and they truly added that little bit of extra I've wanted for all the Wick stories. Truly a great capstone and my favorite of the movies.
Quality Films and Quality Content Again Full Fat 💯🔥
I think a prequel to John Wick when he was an active assassin would be too great to pass up. I'd love to see his last mission that gained his freedom.
I'd also like to see some of that John/Caine/Koji brotherhood.
I don't think Keanu is in a position to do another John Wick. He is quite old. Also I don't think the audiences would want to see anyone else in the role
I kinda like the mystery of his last mission as it is. However, I do think a prequel showing the histories of some of the characters in the height of their assassining would be pretty cool.
@@shyguy5473 keanu does have a Stuntman, but most of the shooting he does,since he trained with Taran Tactical,Keanu is also enthusiastic to reprise a role, so don't get your hopes down yet friend! Aha
I just love the fact that in every movie, there´s a scene where John throws his gun at someone. It´s a move I´d love to do in shooter games, and it always gets a laugh out of me when he does it.
8:02 thats my background rn that shot for me was one of the most stunning in the film
I love each one for different reasons but man, the action is just 😮💨
Can we talk about Clancy Brown as The Harbinger? Easily my favorite side character introduced by this movie
Only thing I’ll say about this movie is the talking parts where really long and I almost fell asleep a couple times because of that, but when they where shooting stuff it was entertaining
If we do get another movie in the franchise I hope it's a cat and mouse movie with Akira hunting Caine. That's all I want. I won't be mad if John Wick somehow didn't die, but I'll be happier if he stays dead.
Also my headcanon of why John Leguizamo isn't in the 3rd or 4th movie is that he got killed by Santa Clause between movies.
I won't be cuz it's not the same without wick could care less for Akira without fuckin wick
My favorite part of John Wick is that he’s still human. He would’ve died in the first movie if it weren’t for his friend that Dafoe plays. So many times he gets help from people that he’s given help and friendship to.
RIP Reddick.
Pretty good video but surprised you didn't talk about the INSANE theme songs especially those by Le Castle Vania who got me vibing the whole movie
Lance Reddick, A good friend. 😭
My one complaint about John wick 4 was how little he reloaded until the end. The other movies did a really good job with that but I feel like this one wasn't quite as good
3 is my favorite. Peak action movie
Chapter 2 is great because it's non stop action.
4 was super well done
I agree with just about everything you said with the only major difference being our rankings. Mine is:
1) Chapter 2
2) Chapter 4
3) John Wick
4) Parabellum
Mine is (from most best to least best):
1. Chapter 4
2. Parabellum
3. Chapter 2
1. Chapter 1.
@@tromboneman4517 My best to worst goes this;
1. JW4
2. JW
3. JW3
4. JW2
I love that John lives in Hell of his own making
To think I was the only one in the theatre watching the first John Wick, had to come back with my mates to let them witness the best action movie of 2014. And it's been an amazing ride with the colours and set design being out of this world since the first one with such colourful world.
Wick, Charon, Winston, and King are my fav
I watched it again for that one scene and I am gonna go for a 3rd time with the Dad. All in all amazing movie and series. Excited for what is to come!
I saw the film yesterday and it was Absolutely Awesome just Awesome, I'm so hyped for the Continental TV Show and Ballerina film.
Something that i like from John Wick and most action movies doesn't have is how clear we can see the fighting scenes, is not a weird all moving camera without no one knowing what the heck is going on... No, is most of the time so clean images, you see clearly all kicks, all throws, all punches, even bullets shooted, we know every move they made... That was so satisfactory to watch in the 3 movies (i need to see the 4 still), and that's one thing that action movies should do more instead of being the next "The Transporter" where you have a badass where most of the movie doesn't get hurt
Best action, in any action series ever. Hands down.
If you want action, you want John wick.
John Wick will return in...
JOHN WICK VS THE WORLD
My favourite part was the twist villain towards the end
*the stairs*
Already saw it once, but gotta go again.
What I love about John wick is that you know there’s passion behind it
There’s a real human guy and it feels like it all could be real, there’s no superhuman or inhuman powers it’s just a guy who’s just trying to live a normal life
His survival at the ending of 3 threw that out the window and firmly into superhero territory lol
That may have been so in JW 1 and possibly 2, but in 3 it started to go into unrealistic superhuman territory. And now in 4, the dude can fall 25 feet spine-first, get hit and/or thrown around by multiple cars and still walk it off. No no, JW has left "normal man" territory behind by a mile.
Don't get me wrong, I had fun with all of the JW movies, but let's not pretend like any of this is realistic or could exist in the real world at all.
The roundabout scene was definitely spectacular to say the least, my only gripe is that characters who got hit by cars should’ve stayed dead especially the dog cuz it kinda took out the danger of fighting in the middle of traffic
