About this movie

Keanu Reeves stars in this stylish tale of revenge and redemption set in a brilliantly imagined New York City. After his wife's sudden death, John Wick treasures her last loving gift to him, a beagle puppy named Daisy. But John's mourning is interrupted when his 1969 Boss Mustang catches the eye of sadistic thug Iosef Tarasov. After John refuses to sell the car, Iosef and his men break into his home, beat him unconscious and kill Daisy. What the gangsters don't know is that they have just reawakened one of the most brutal assassins the underworld has ever seen. In his search for his stolen vehicle, John descends into a New York that tourists never see: a supersecret criminal community where he was once the baddest guy of all. As word spreads that John is gunning for Iosef, who is the only son of vicious Russian crime boss Viggo Tarasov, John finds a generous bounty on his head and a veritable army on his tail.

Dammit I loved all 3 of John Whickham. Second had me thinking for few minster hold this happened part one then I got it. He was the best after for role. I say many more actors would of been to. But he was picked 4 it. And he did the ghost as called him. Of John wick amazing revengeful. And it wasn't out of being nasty I won't say for people who never saw movie. That made him do so. It was the Principal , he said no then he was grieving for his wife also which meant brought worst our him

Many will probably say it's not that spectacular, mainly because of just how simple the premise of the story is, but often the best or most enjoyable films tend to follow simple narratives/ideas, avoiding excessive amounts of exposition-spewing monologues & too many convoluted twists that try to be clever. Keanu Reeves has been slated a number of times for his performances over the years, but he is really very good in this, making it one of his very best performances. He is a much more accessible character than the many 'lone wolf' super-assassin types we've been given in recent years, many of whom have rather limited range in terms of their personality. This isn't something that Reeves is lumbered with, he get's enough to do allowing him to stretch beyond just being a guy with a chip on his shoulder. A straightforward revenge film that has been superbly executed, with shades of 'Collateral' & 'The Raid' for good measure.

Keanu reeves at his absolute best, its stylish fun and just is a seamless fun ride all of the way through with Keanu pulling it out of the bag with his skill and determination adding to his already huge body count. This film is a must see if for anyone and it epitomizes what typical action film should be. Pure Action, quick one Liners and Keanu Reeves with a vendetta and i cant wait for Chapter 2.
