what does /tv/ ACTUALLY think of john wick ?

>hear its great
>decide to watch it with my mates one saturday night
>everyone liking it and thinking its pretty badass at first
>with every gun battle it gets more tedious
>by the last 30 minutes everyones just taking the piss shouting "IM JOHN WICK" in a grizzled voice whenever he shoots someone
>when he picks up the new dog from the pound everyone burst and laughing and or is saying wtf ?

yeh i thought the action was good but asa film it was highly over rated desu
>>
>>66712757
I really liked it. I liked everything except Ms. Perkins, who felt out of place.
>>
>>66712757
>the action was good

that's the whole point of the movie, you can ignore the rest
>>
>>66712757
Great action flick

Probably some of the cleanest fighting I've seen

>watching Keanu Reeves kill via headshots to techno music
>not enjoyable
>>
I liked the action scenes, the scenes in-between (I thought the other hired killers and the hotel were interesting as hell) and as an animal lover I respect the reason to kill evil russians (played by a swede and a castrated britbong) for killing his dog.
>>
>>66712830
this
>>
We just like keanu because of how much of a good dude he is, that and matrix nostalgia
>>
as soon as the scene with the russian reacting to finding out john wick is after him happened i was all in. that one moment sets the tone for the WHOLE movie.
>>
>>66712757
I love the movie but i do agree that it started to stall at the end.

Him fighting Viggo at the end hand to hand and not beating the ever living shit out of him was stupid seeing how easily he went through everyone else.
>>
He makes one sort of good movie again and he ends up in something like "Knock Knock" what the fuck?
>>
>>66712787
Pls dont insult my amazonfu just because you are a manlet afraid of tall women.

Like most revenge porn, it goes on longer than it probably needs to. The fact that there's a sequel in the works undermines the entire point of the movie as well. But it's a nice little popcorn flick to spend two hours pretending everyone getting everyone getting shot is your ex's new boyfriend with.
>>
>>66712757

I think Keanu Reeves is a bit overrated, but it was a solid action film.
>>
>>66712757

i really wanted to love it but the CGI blood was just awful

there's a good way of utilizing and masking it in action movies (see: the guest) and there's the shameless way john wick did it
>>

Just a joke I knocked off of Zero Punctuation m8, though one of my exs got engaged last night. I have nothing nice to say about her, but it's still a peculiar feel.
>>
>>66713060
wtf are you on about ?

things that didnt happen, what, people got together and watched a film ?

just because you have no mates doesnt mean others dont

truly fucking triggered desu
>>
probably the best action movie in at least a decade. had a good feeling to it as well. it tried to keep things grounded in reality while also having these larger than life places and characters. i liked it a lot

hopefully the next movie explores the world more since the only thing lacking was the world building which is unfortunate because the movie clearly wanted to show us more
>>
>>66712993
She felt a bit too surreal for how the movie presented itself. Like she was supposed to be in a much louder movie.
>>
Needs more keanu-operating

https://youtu.be/tpr8oqyjKIc
>>
>>66713143
the reason that it was good was because there was so much action and it was fast paced

i already worry that the second will get bogged down in how many golden sheckles wick and others get paid for their hits and all that other shit, was clearly the weakest part of the first
>>
>>66713198
i'm not saying they should abandon what made it great. i just feel like john wick can be an awesome action movie and something more
>>
it was fantastic. it delivered exactly what it promised, pure, unadulterated, high quality fast paced action. this is exactly what keanu needs to stick to because his attempts at serious acting are laughtable.
>>
>>66712757
>>by the last 30 minutes everyones just taking the piss shouting "IM JOHN WICK" in a grizzled voice whenever he shoots someone
Jesus, you and your friends sound like a group of faggot douchebros.
>>
>>66712945
To be fair, Wick is really worn down by the time he gets to Viggo. It's plausible that he'd have trouble with him by that point .
>>
>>66713431
>you and your friends

do you have any idea who you're stealing from?
>>
>>66712757
It was fantastic. You and your friends are millenial cucks raised on capeshit.
>>
>>66713194
That was fantastic
>>
Weapons handling was pretty weak, they were going for that Equilibrium gunkarate shit you can tell Keanu doesn't know the fist thing about firearms.
>>
>>66713194
I just noticed that extra shell on the side of that shotgun. He reloaded it so quick I had to go back rewatch it a couple times.

Him losing his wife's sweet innocent girly dog, going on a rampage to avenge them, then picking up the Pitbull at the shelter shows his transition as a human being. The movie was deeper than most see it as.
>>
>>66713657
Tom Cruise, to an extent
>>
One of the best action movies in recent years, hands down
Apart from the great fucking action, I really love the whole "hitman secret society" which added to the film
I didn't like the Marilyn Manson songs but apart from that, it had a decent soundtrack
>>
>>66712757

I liked it. As a genre movie it does exactly what it needs to be good.
>>
>>66713657
no, they use body double

The soundtrack really reminded me of PayDay's, which is god-tier
>>
It was alright, the action was good and the story was a joke. Not really memorable tho, I've seen it twice and all I can say is Keanu shoots people in the head in various settings.

The "secret assassin hotel" was a bit too corny for me.
>>
>>66713831
I am a gun expert.

Loved it. Hope there's another. Action is so tight.
>>
>>66713852
The hotel made it feel like a comic book adaptation, which made me forgive the weaknesses in the non-action scenes.
>>
>>66712757

agreed
overrated

Former /k/ommando here. It's probably being praised whilst a tiny minority of nogunz tryhards try and talk shit about his form and technique.

Then again /k/ has changed more drastically than /tv/ has over the last 3-4 years, so it wouldn't surprise me if there's faggots in there calling it Reddit...

James Caan was trained by a Gunsite employee for the movie Thief.
>>
>>66712757
when is the new film coming out?
sequel got approved im sure
>>
>>66713657
Keanu isn't really training. He does 3 gun on his own. He co-owns a tactical company with Johnny Depp
>>
>>66714264
Also Keanu was involved in the Aimpoint T2 development
>>
>>66712757
great film love the hotel for assasins
ending was dragged out though
>>
>>66713088
I know that feel....
>>
Felt nice to watch a pure action movie now that everything has to be some PG-13 action-comedy.

Bit weird having a Russian mobster character with a Swedish accent but I found that quite charming.
>>
>>66713088
>one of my exs got engaged last night.
why would you even know about that? you online stalking her faggot
>>
I heard the action praised a lot before i saw it but it's too highly choreographed for my liking, still better than most movies though.
I liked it and look forward to the sequel.
>>
>>66713861
I'm a fag expert. I have some bad news...
>>
>>66714431
You dont stalk your exs online?

What a fag

when john kills iosef, he mutters in russian "idi naxui" which means go fuck yourself, while the movie subs says "it was just a fucking dog". Why?

That's about the most plebeian Goddamned interpretation of John Wick you could have.

Negroes in the slums of Detroit have a better understanding of the film than you, despite you claiming your expertise otherwise. Nothing in the film displays an advoacy for self-moderation or waiting for a safe limit of wealth.

Evaluating John Wick in any great depth, and even on the shallow surface, is entirely about that growling, growing hunger that a newborn national (inborn to the country of America or recently migrated since to) feels at his core; as well, the film deals with all undesirables and pitfalls on being high up ther eas number one, paranoid and virtually toxic to the touch, which you can only be when you're at the top eyeing the top of the top and keen to look down even farther.

John Wick is the success story that resonates with every class and every minority and majority of whatever country it broadcasts and distributes to. It's about aiming high, getting up to the plateau and dealing with all the strife and misery that you deserve for enjoying it. It's basically the only genuinely multicultural movie ever.
>>
>>66712757
>>by the last 30 minutes everyones just taking the piss shouting "IM JOHN WICK" in a grizzled voice whenever he shoots someone

Please don't think I mean this ironically or anything but I hope you and your friends die in a car wreck, preferably you'll crash and be stuck in the mangled wreck. The fuel will ignite and burns you all alive.
