Эпизод с Холли Белли, и ее дружками, ммм просто услада для глаз, жаль того добряка, думаю он нам еще припомнит.

A sequel that felt more like filler that didn’t necessarily need to be made before chapter 4 came out. Still a really good action popcorn flick though.

Within the first 20 minutes, this movie has already got you hooked. The tension with the countdown and then it is an adrenaline rush of 20 minutes of non-stop action. John Wick 3 attempts different and creative types of action scenesWithin the first 20 minutes, this movie has already got you hooked. The tension with the countdown and then it is an adrenaline rush of 20 minutes of non-stop action. John Wick 3 attempts different and creative types of action scenes compared to the second one. Something this entry also does differently is that it leans more on comedy. This is not just in the dialogue but in the action scenes as well. For example, a guy gets constantly hit into every single glass case. The dialogue doesn't feel very impactful and can be overly silly. John Wick makes an important decision that is undone in literally 10 minutes. It is also very cartoony compared to previous entries. We have characters that can seemingly teleport, full-armoured soldiers that barely flinch being shot at, and a guy that can survive falling from an entire building. Overall, still better than a majority of action movies and the action scenes are still enjoyable. In the end, isn't that why we watch John Wick?… Expand

The combat scenes are masterfully choreographed, without those shaky camera moves that most films of the genre love to do. We also have glorious kills, without having to appeal to unnecessary gore.

The plot of this one is a direct sequel to the previous movie - which, eventually, is important to the development of this trama. The characters are great and well-made, mainly Sofia, whom I particularly loved - the movie not only emphasizes her, but her dogs either. And we cannot forget Keanu Reeves, that lives the protagonist and make the scenes in such an organic way - capitally at his age. Dude was just born to this role.

It was such a great looking shot that I have been waiting eagerly to see how it looked in the actual film ever since. It did not let me down. The style this film possesses is insane. It is one of the best looking action films I have ever seen.

The pacing of this film is also incredible. It starts the action immediately and almost never lets up. I can't wait to see what the death count was in this film because it will be truly enormous. The only problem is when the death count is that high the film can struggle to keep the originality up. After a while each death starts to look very similar to the last, and the 50 before that, and it can even become a little tedious to watch.

The only other flaw I came across with the film was that John Wick is on the defence too much. Instead of being angry and on the hunt like the first two films, for the majority of the Chapter 3 he is in survival mode. Still very fun to watch, but it isn't quite the same as seeing him take brutal revenge.

And the film is brutal. I could be wrong but I don't remember the first two entries in the series making me cringe in terms of violence as much. There were some very hard things to watch at times in this movie even for me, and I pride myself on handling those sorts of things fine most of the time. One of them early on got an audible gasp from the entire audience and I saw multiple people having to turn their heads to the side.

'John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum' is two hours of your life that will pass by very quickly. This is as non-stop action as films get. I think this is the third best action series currently producing movies (after 'James Bond' and 'Mission Impossible'). Will it get a third one? The first entry on the trivia page suggests no, however the end of this movie suggests yes? I guess we will have to wait to find out. For now enjoy the hell out of this one.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The gun/melee porn is very strong, and this is a stylish film for sure. However with each movie in the series the suspension of disbelief becomes even stronger. As a master assassin I can buy the fact that John Wick has amazing reflexes and literally never misses. However it's too far fetched that he can brawl to death hundreds of henchmen one after another. Keanu got away with this in the Matrix because of his special powers, but here he's just a old guy with a slight physique. The ending where he survives being shot several times before falling off a 15 story building, hitting numerous fire escapes on the way down, is just ludicrous. Most of all I enjoyed the world building, the high table, the continental, etc. This movie is basically a video game.… Expand

It starts off with John getting ready to face consequences for his actions in the second film and the continuation of the story is certainly excellent for the most part; the reason I say the most part is because they added a new plot into this story but I will get to that. The action here remains excellent and is probably the best out of all of the movies due to it being bigger with way more enemies and they're more varied this time meaning John's on his toes far more often and the stakes are higher this time with the consequences of his actions from the second movie. The action is still top fun with these varied enemies getting more creative and even using a famous location in this movie as a warzone helping it feel more personal this time. The main cast remains as solid as ever although the newcomers are a little questionable since some are introduced and never brought back again but at least the performances they give are great. John Wick continues to remain an excellent protagonist and he's probably even better here with how he's going through even more s*** and he's getting beaten up some more yet he still stands tall and continues to beat his enemies to a pulp. But this film isn't without it's flaws and that main problem for me is the expanded lore. This movie introduces some brand new lore with a new government of sort that acts as a higher power over New York that acts as a severe threat to John and his friends throughout the film and it doesn't really work for me with how it was never established in the first 2 films although I am confident they'll make me take it more seriously in future movies but it doesn't cut it for me personally. Overall, even with the new lore and new characters not working for me personally, the rest of the movie as a whole is still amazing and I still recommend it if you haven't seen it and I can't wait to see what the fourth movie has in store for us.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This film is very violent, including bloody violence and shoot-outs. It features loads of choreographed battles/fights, a la Jackie Chan and a lot of artificial light. Its got to be one of a few films featuring a battle between shelves in a New York library(!). I'm not sure if there was much of a plot present or not, it all seemed to happen so quick!. Its relatively CGI heavy and perhaps, if your like me, somewhat unnervingly disorientating but it is certainly not boring, that's for sure!. Of course, it goes to say that being a John Wick film, there are a few dogs present. There's a scene featuring violence toward a dog which might upset some and it may be hard to figure out quite what's going on but otherwise its a fairly immersive and certainly a distracting watch that's worth seeing, yes.… Expand

Now the film starts strong again, seamlessly starting with the previous part. Until then, usual fun with John Wick.

But then, in the middle of the film, he lets a little bounce, doesn't make the decisions I hoped for and you start to get bored (only in small spurts).

Towards the end, however, the film pulls itself out of the loop and has very strong moments. The end is more what I had hoped for in the film to a large extent, but the film title can already give an indication of why such a moment did not come earlier.

Ergo, the film is still very good action level, but in the Wick Ranking, film 3 is in 3rd place. But you can be curious about part 4.… Expand

The action is over the top, and even though he is WAY outnumbered by the opponents in every fight scene (especially the Halle Berry fight sequence with dogs), there somehow only seems to be a couple of people at a time that fight him, but the fight sequences are all about the choreography and will have you scratching your head about "how did they do that?"

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just when you thought the stakes are not high enough. The third chapter of John Wick (aptly subtitled as Parabellum) is the best one of the three, so far. Packed with much more dangerous stunts and outlandish situations that normal people couldn't get out of, this film is an exhilarating ride of non-stop thrill. However, the length of the film is an issue. Like the second film, this one saturates the viewers with heart-pounding action, to the point where after the film arrives with the third act, the viewers get jaded. But overall, this film is a major improvement to the last one, which, by the way, was thought of as unsurpassable in terms of its quality. It just keeps getting better and better.… Expand

Parabellum doesn't even have a plot of its own: it's completely reliant on its predecessor. This really didn't bother me at all ـــــ at first.

The way this one picks up only moments from where Chapter 2 ended is just unbelievably great. I really couldn't have hoped, or imagined, for anything better. We get to be fully immersed into the fictional, and almost dystopian, crime world in a way that reminded me somehow of Blade Runner.

The action sequences are stylish, insanely brilliantly choreographed and, most importantly, have innovative ideas and execution. John Wick franchise no longer sets the bar high for other action films; it sets up new standards for how action sequences should be shot and choreographed.

Story-wise, though, this installment really disappointed me. As I mentioned above, all I asked for is an interesting story, be it a mere continuation of the last film or not. Unfortunately, the story here lacks everything that can make it intriguing. It's simply continuation to Chapter 2's with a rehash of storylines we saw thousand times in other action films to fill in the gaps. Moreover, Halle Berry's Sofia is almost an unnecessary addition to the film. I said almost because her dogs partly redeemed the presence of such useless, and even problematic, character.

Drama is definitely not what I expected to see; but with all the silliness in the original and its first sequel, I was, somehow, ـــ unlike here ـــ emotionally invested in the goings-on and concerned, somehow, about the protagonist. That said, Keanu Reeves is absolutely fantastic as ever. He never gives us let us think of his John Wick as the formidable and invincible hero, even if we are one hundred percent sure he would win at the end of the day.

All in all, John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum is a decent sequel that proves another excellent entry in the franchise, by further expanding upon this exceptional universe and taking even more risks regarding the action scenes and fight choreography.

A historia é uma continuação direta do filme anterior. Ela tem mais um papel de background para que aquilo tudo aconteça, não sendo o foco principal, o que já é o bastante caso entenda a proposta do filme. Os personagens são legais e bem construídos, principalmente a Sofia, que eu particularmente amei, com o filme dando uma boa enfase não só a ela, mas com seus cachorros também. E não podemos esquecer do próprio Keanu Reeves, que da vida e faz as cenas de maneira quase que orgânica mesmo estando "acima da idade" - não parece.

A fotografia também não decepciona, a paleta de cores é linda e da um bom aspecto ao filme. Nada único, mas suficientemente agradável.… Expand

Keanu Reeves stars in his third iteration of many’s favorite movie hitman, John Wick. It feels like a long time coming for this movie but the franchise picks up as if they never left us. The only person who left us in this series was Michael Nyqvist, who as signature villain in the first John Wick movie. There is a nice tribute to him in the credits after the movie.

But now it’s time to take a shot at Baba Yaga.

YOU KNOW WHY YOU’RE WATCHING THIS MOVIE. John Wick does two things very well: kill assassins and get the mess beat out of him. In this movie, those are two of the three things worth watching. The third thing worth watching is Halle Berry and her canine bodyguards. We know what we are going to get from John in this movie but for about 10 minutes, Halle’s bodyguards steal the movie. Halle did a really great job, surprisingly, looking natural with the fight choreography and gun play in the movie. Other than that, there are some good one liners that fans will understand from the first two movies. This movie has a strong beginning and I want to shout out my NBA fans. All I’ll say is, “Boban!”

NOW for the main course… the bad parts. THIS MOVIE HAS VERY LITTLE PLOT, DIALOGUE AND PLOT DEVELOPMENT. That makes the 2-hr movie quite rough to get through, even when you don’t expect much in the plot realm anyway. This movie is two hours of almost non-stop fighting, shooting and gruesome killing. That’s better than watching Keanu struggle to run for 2 hours, in hindsight (i.e. Tom Cruise in any Mission Impossible movie). This movie is easily 30 minutes too long. Most of that 30 minutes is solid fight scenes; however, they use the same grappling and jiu-jitsu moves in every single sequence throughout the movie for Keanu, Halle and in the previous movies. Therefore, the fighting gets old, especially in this movie, which had a very strong first 45 minutes.

After that, they gave us a couple of laughs in this movie but they made the main villain and his lackeys too big of a joke. At first, the joke was funny but it wore out its welcome and they just kept hammering it home (similar to a Euron situation for my GoT fans). On top of that, the villains weren’t even really trying to kill John towards the end, anyway. The director was like, “hey everyone just slap fight with John. We’ll keep the tape rolling until we run out”. It became hard to watch towards the end and I just wanted the movie to end. Not to mention, the other villain in the movie no one even tried to kill and you want her to die the most!

Long story short, if you are a John Wick series fan, you have to see this but I’d suggest getting the cheapest price possible. Maybe save your money for John Wick 4, which is certain to happen and in hopes of a better movie. For the general fan, watch the the first John Wick and then decide if you want to keep watching in a matinee or rent/stream capacity only in the months to come.… Expand

It's as scary as visually stunning. In this film the balls stop in the water is strange compare to all other films that forget (a bit like Terminator Dark Fath). The passages are memorable, the scenario is dark. The Continental order of the color of hope lets us see the Neo that we always wanted to keep. The music is much better than the previous opus. The day I write it's online it has only one fault is that the villains sometimes wait their turns and the worst and it shows. Too bad, because the opus before I did not notice. Thank you, Keanu Reeves, for this high benefit in death (not only him besides ..)

Un excellent épisode cette fois-ci il repousse les limites des possibilités de tuer et les regroupe par catégorie.. C'est aussi effrayant que visuellement époustouflant. Dans ce film les balles s'arrêtent dans l'eau c'est étrange comparer a tous les autres films qui oublient (un peux comme Terminator Dark Fath). Les passages sont mémorables, le scénario est sombre. Le Continental à ordre des couleur de l'espoir nous laisse entrevoir le Neo qu'on a toujours voulu garder. Les musiques sont beaucoup mieux que l'opus précédent. Au jour ou j'écris c'est ligne il ne possède qu'un seul défaut c'est que les méchant attendent parfois leurs tours et le pire et que ça se voit. Dommage, car les opus d'avant je ne l'ai pas remarqué. Merci, Keanu Reeves, de cette prestation haute en décès (pas seulement lui d'ailleurs..)… Expand

It seems that in the script I tell more about the world, and it turns out nonsense. Part of the plot in Africa is not clear at all how it affects the plot. I certainly understand that in the film, where the main thing - realistic production of action scenes the plot is not the most important, but not to drop to the level of Marvel in the development of the script. And so the film is great.… Expand

Sofia Boutella would have been a better cast for Halle Berry btw. 3. Hokie fight scenes:- several ocassions where the bad guys had a chance to I’ll Keanu but they let him get up and fight again!!! Strange humor that didn’t work in the middle of some fight scenes- fight scene in train station, people dying left and right and the bystanders don’t even react!!

The cast especially Keanu Reeves, Halle Berry, Ian McShane, Mark Dacascos, Lance Reddick, Laurence Fishburne, Anjelica Huston, and Asia Kate Dillon gave stupendous performances. Halle Berry's characters dogs were so cute and cool. The fighting choreography and action scenes in this one were the most impressive and cool out of the first three especially the scene where Keanu Reeves is ridding the horse and the scene where Keanu Reeves, Halle Berry, and the dogs are taking out dozens of bad guys. The visuals of the sets were fantastic looking.

Hay muchas fortalezas en el universo que se está construyendo alrededor del nombre de John Wick, y aunque su ejercicio narrativo está absorbido por su acción, también sorprende el hecho de que se logra construir un camino con golpes y peleas más que con palabras y "complejos" discursos.
En este capítulo, el público continuará como testigo del recorrido que John Wick realiza en busca de su libertad. Ésta vez, él está dispuesto a ir hasta la punta del iceberg para negociar su salida de aquella red de sociedades bélicas y dedicadas al crimen organizado.
Parabellum tiene lo suficiente para entretener y emocionar a un público amplio: Las secuencias de acción son ingeniosas, creativas y, varias veces, hipnotizantes, los diálogos están adecuadamente decorados con frases poéticas sobre el dolor y la gloria, la fotografía y la escenografía son difíciles de ignorar por su atractivo e impacto; tanto Keanu Reeves como Halle Berry demuestran una química y una chispa de energía increíble y, lo más importante, se nos permite descubrir más sociedades, artefactos y personajes que incrementan la intriga en el recorrido. Sin embargo, aunque la intriga crece, toda esa información no complementa la comprensión de dicho universo. Hay situaciones de alta importancia que se tratan de forma muy esporádica y situaciones "poco" importantes que toman "mucho" tiempo en resolverse. Sí, el enfoque de esta saga de acción es construir situaciones de alto impacto visual con coreografías realistas y que fluyan técnicamente, pero, aunque sabemos que Wick quiere sobrevivir porque está siendo cazado, la película incrementaría el valor de su historia si tan solo explicara por quien y por qué.
-
There are many strengths in this universe being built around the name of John Wick, and even though the narrative exercise it's absorbed by its action, it's surprising the fact that the film achieves to build its way with punches and fights more than with words and "complex" speeches.
In this chapter, the public will continue as witnesses of John Wick and his road to freedom. This time he is willing to go to the tip of the ice-berg to negotiate his exit of that warlike society dedicated to organized crime.
Parabellum has enough to entertain and excite a wide public: The action sequences are clever, creative and, several times, hypnotizing; the dialogs are accurately decorated with poetic phrases about pain and glory; the photography and scenery are hard to ignore because of its attractiveness and impact; both Keanu Reeves and Halle Berry shows an incredible chemistry and a sparkle of energy, and, the most important, the intrigue in the story is increased by the introduction of more societies, artifacts, and characters. Nevertheless, even if the intrigue increases, all that information doesn't complement the understanding of that same universe. There are topics of high relevance with a sporadic treatment and situations of "little" importance that take "a lot" of time to resolve. Yes, the focus of this saga is to build high visual impact situations with realistic choreographies and technical flow, but even if we know that Wick wants to survive because he is being hunted, the film would increase the value of its narrative if it just would explain by who and why.… Expand

The action itself is smooth and has a special feel or realism in it that we've seen before. There is some more humor in this one and it's all very well timed with what's happening. Keanu Reeves does his thing and there is nothing else to say other than he's a man of focus, dedication, and sheer will. The movie also goes deeper into the world of John Wick and the assassins and we meet some new faces who are well established in their position. Overall, it's fun, badass, and has Keanu Reeves, so you can't go wrong with this one.… Expand

Some lines of dialogue feel kind of weird. Asia Kate Dillon’s performance felt really wooden and she never showed a lot of emotion. There are sequences where John Wick and another character are talking and all of a sudden they start talking in a different language and then switch back to English. It does start to get annoying. My last problem would be that I think Halle Berry was way underused. Here are the positives. Keanu Reeves does a fantastic job. He has done an outstanding job in each of these films but he did a lot better in this one. Laurence Fishburne and Halle Berry also do a fantastic job. The rest of the supporting cast does a great job. The standout for all the John Wick movies is the action. It’s no different here. The action is awesome. It’s hard to believe that Keanu Reeves is actually doing all of these stunts. The John Wick movies are basically 2 hours of dumb fun action. Each fight scene has some sort of unique flare to it that makes the scene interesting to watch. The cinematography is pretty good in this film also. Each action scene is shot differently and it makes those scenes ten times cooler. There is a cool long take action scene on a bridge. The score for the film is good. It’s not outstanding, it’s just good. The story is interesting also. We get to learn a lot more about where John Wick learned to fight and it’s very interesting. There are a couple of jokes that did manage to get a chuckle or two out of me. The locations used in this film are really cool such as Casablanca and New York City. It’s good to see these different environments in this film. The film is paced really well and the tone remains consistent most of the time. Before you see this film, you must watch the first two John Wick films or you will be confused. Overall, John Wick Chapter 3 - Parabellum provides more hard hitting action with great acting and solid worldbuilding. I give John Wick Chapter 3 - Parabellum an 8/10.… Expand

The franchise keeps getting better

Directed by stuntman turned director Chad Stahelski, and written by Derek Kolstad, Shay Hatten, Chris Collins, and Marc Abrams, John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum is the kind of film that is well aware ofThe franchise keeps getting better

Directed by stuntman turned director Chad Stahelski, and written by Derek Kolstad, Shay Hatten, Chris Collins, and Marc Abrams, John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum is the kind of film that is well aware of what it is; a completely over-the-top orgy of violence, wherein the endless deaths by gun, knife, fist, dog, horse, motorbike, sword, pencil, and book of 18th century Russian folklore, are so excessive as to transcend any possible accusations of glorifying violence. In short, the film leans into its status as basically a live-action episode of Itchy and Scratchy. Sure, it can become a little repetitive at times, and there's next to no plot or character development. But that's to ignore how aesthetically accomplished it is, how funny it is, how compelling it is, and how unapologetically entertaining it is.

Beginning moments after Chapter 2 ended, Parabellum opens with Wick (Keanu Reeves) attempting to flee New York with a $14 million contract on his head. Meanwhile, the High Table dispatch an Adjudicator (Asia Kate Dillon) to look into the unsanctioned help given to Wick by Winston (Ian McShane) and the Bowery King (Laurence Fishburne), whilst to lead the pursuit of Wick, she hires Zero (Mark Dacascos), who hates guns and is a huge Wick fanboy.

Firstly, Parabellum looks absolutely gorgeous. Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 both looked great, but Parabellum is in another class, particularly Dan Laustsen's lush and vibrant cinematography. In terms of the action, as with the first two films, Parabellum has obviously been influenced by The Raid and The Raid 2, two films which redefined action cinema by shunning frenetic editing in favour of longer takes that showcased physicality. You know that seizure-inducing scene in Taken when Mills jumps a fence, and there are literally 15 cuts in five seconds? There's none of that in Parabellum, with the audience allowed to focus on the organic progression of Jonathan Eusebio's magnificent combat choreography.

Both previous Wick films have been said to resemble video games in their visual design, and this is even more pronounced in Parabellum, not just in its aesthetic, but in some of its narrative beats. For example, each fight is harder than the last (i.e., the difficulty level increases). A scene in a stable where Wick uses a horse to take out two thugs is essentially an environmental assassination straight out of the Hitman franchise. There's a single driving level, and a non-combat level where Wick must reach his destination before dehydrating. To make it to the final battle, Wick must face down a platoon of heavily armoured soldiers, each of whom requires multiple hits before going down, whilst Wick himself has to pause for a weapon upgrade.

One of the reasons the original film stood out so much was the brilliance of Kolstad's world-building, wherein we were introduced to a fascinating underworld featuring an international Assassin's Guild, a hotel for assassins in which violence is prohibited, even an assassins' currency. In Chapter 2, he introduced the person who helped Wick retire, the High Table, blood markers, and the Bowery King. In Parabellum, we meet the Director (Angelica Houston), the Master of Coin (Jerome Flynn), the Elder (Saïd Taghmaoui), the adjudication process, excommunication, and deconsecration. The mythology has deepened with each film, with its old-world religious connotations becoming more elaborate.

Are there some problems? Well, any film this violent is going to have immediate detractors. But the thing is, the movie doesn't take itself too seriously, nor does it expect the audience to, so questions of irresponsibility are kind of a moot point - of course it's irresponsibly violent, it's supposed to be irresponsibly violent. Does it treat guns and knives fetishistically? Yes, to a certain extent it does. Is it celebrating guns and violence in a realistic socio-political manner? No, not at all.

Having said that, the violence can occasionally come across as meaningless insofar as it doesn't seem to have any ramifications for any of the main characters. Related to this disassociation, and simply by virtue of logistics, almost all of Wick's opponents are nameless and faceless extras. The narrative structure is also a little awkward, and on several occasions, decisions reached over the course of multiple scenes are simply undone a couple of scenes later.

This notwithstanding, I absolutely loved Parabellum. Easily the best in the franchise thus far, it's more ambitious, more ridiculous, more violent, and more entertaining. Sure, themes such as fealty, honour, and fate come and go without much engagement. But this is not what the film is about. Instead, Stahelski has crafted an action film that features extraordinary aesthetic elements and a wonderfully vibrant visual design. Parabellum doesn't just unapologetically revel in its excessive violence. It makes art out of its excessive violence.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie is OK. But there are still some things missing...guns (too much knifes and swords), better dialogue and the list goes on. Acting is better in this one then previous John Wick movie. After the movie it feels like something is still missing.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I like it. But in my eyes it is pretty stupid to keep important items in a book inside a library for 5 years. What would John do if somebody would have found them.… Expand

Ultra violent... Guns... lots of guns. Blood, guts, spit and ass everywhere and Halle Berry and the dogs stole the show, in my opinion.
