There are only so many times you can watch someone get shot. No story no interesting villains and what is the bloke and his dog all about. I loved the first film but this was such a let down.

I loved the first film but this was such a let down. There has to be a some kind reason for mindless killing or its just mind numbing. Please do not make another of these unless you come up with a good script.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was anticipating this movie since last year. I enjoyed the first three and figured these filmmakers could do no wrong. Apparently, they can. Ultimately, the story makes little sense. The Tracker character came out of no where and has a dog that attacks balls. That's it. As a further insult to the Halle Berry character from #3, the dog pees on a victim's face. What?? John Wick apparently can continually fall off a tall building onto the concrete and still fight a mob. What the??

At what point did the filmmakers assume the audience was this stupid? To further complicate the issue, John Wick apparently has run out of attack moves and keeps doing the same choreography in his kills. I was bored seeing John Wick fight and it pains me to write that.

There were some bright spots in the film. Donnie Yen always rocks and the overhead scene featuring the dragon's breath slug was an amazing concept. However, this movie, overall, was not a good movie. I wouldn't be surprised if some studio exec walked onto Stahelski's set and said "We need more.. bigger, badder, etc." The franchise was already great, why mess it up?

I do think this movie is worth checking out for fans of the series, but I simply can't agree with everyone else's great reviews after this 3 hour mess.… Expand

The first movie was great / love Keanu... BUT - It's bloated and lost its way, it's way too long, the action is good, but not 2hours 49 mins good.

The lore feels worn and uninteresting.

It's a product of diminishing returns yet extended run times.

You do not have to be a ballistics expert to know that one guy in a known position with a pistol would not be able to beat a bunch of guys with automatic weapons approaching from different directions. This is a generic comment about theYou do not have to be a ballistics expert to know that one guy in a known position with a pistol would not be able to beat a bunch of guys with automatic weapons approaching from different directions. This is a generic comment about the flamboyant and unconvincing fight scenes in the John Wick series. Obviously there is a target audience for this sort of action film which does not compare to the Die Hard series for example, which has a lower body count and is just as puerile.… Expand

Another crap movie full of "style" = no logic, a lot of snobism, artificial behaviour, ridiculous "traditions/rules". In addition the story is superficial. Yes, I was annoyed. 2 hours and 49 minutes for this movie...what a joke.

1) More invincible than an Avenger: is it the John Wick Cinematic Universe? Scifi, not action movie.
2) One killed per minute excluding titles: was there a record to break in the body count and was it so important?
3) If I was interested in choreography I would go to a dance show and not to a murders ballet. I hypothesize that an action cinema reduced to this single factor depends on the chronic lack of supporting scripts, even present in the best "Kill (Th)'em All". "The Matrix" saga still had one of Dickian thickness, while here the presumed adrenalinic crepuscular epicness of Reeves, Fishburne and the others is in fact the expressive one-dimensionality of the characters, simple silhouettes to break down.
4) Reeves is not Cruise, so his screen time is very low. The helmet of long and dirty hair has the function of not distinguishing him from the stunt doubles who take his place for most of the film. Keanu's face reappears after an editing cut at the end of all the more physically demanding scenes.
5) With Dante it only shares boredom, as already "Mad Max: Fury Road" (Miller 2015), and the quotationism adds nothing to me even when it is "The Warriors" (Walter Hill '79) or "Barry Lyndon" (Kubrick '75).… Expand

2.5 hours of no plot or story line, unrealistic action, 500 people killed, and a complete waste of time and money. What was the point of this absurd movie and why was it even made? It's two hours too long and the only decent part was the dog.

Bloated with boring storytelling that **** on the previous movies' "worldbuilding." There was at least 2 people snoring at my theater throughout the whole movie lol, it was pretty bad. Last 30 minutes were ok, but it was still hard to sitBloated with boring storytelling that **** on the previous movies' "worldbuilding." There was at least 2 people snoring at my theater throughout the whole movie lol, it was pretty bad. Last 30 minutes were ok, but it was still hard to sit through because John is such an uncompelling character. No suspense or tension because, again, John is such a boring, 1 dimensional character with little to no development over the course of 4 movies. I'd take a generic 80s good guy action hero over this **** These movies are not for me, because even the action felt bland af. Very repetitive and uncreative, save for Donnie Yen's scenes. Camerawork was clean, but just amplified the imperfections in the choreography even more. If you liked the previous movies, you'll like this one, its more of the same.… Expand

This film is far to long without the story it deserves. The cast is amazingly talented but wasted in it's gregorius use of gun battles that did nothing for the story it was just the same scene thrown at you over and over and over again. TheThis film is far to long without the story it deserves. The cast is amazingly talented but wasted in it's gregorius use of gun battles that did nothing for the story it was just the same scene thrown at you over and over and over again. The plot devices used don't add anything to the story not to mention some of the absurd armor uses in the action sequences it kind of reminds me of when we were kids and would hold up our coats pretending to be vampires or you can't see me because I'm holding up the edge of my coat "ridiculous". If you want to see this film "and I don't recommend you do" I would suggest going and sit for the first 45 minutes then go to a quick dinner for about and hour and come back for the rest you will not have missed anything. If you do decide to sit through the entire film I would take some sort of headache medication with you after you sit through the entire thing your brain will be mashed potatoes and not in a good way.… Expand

lets make a film that has a cult like following that prints us money and put zero effort into it this movie blows in comparison to the older john wick movies this movie is so dumb I literally died laughing outloud when john got kicked down alets make a film that has a cult like following that prints us money and put zero effort into it this movie blows in comparison to the older john wick movies this movie is so dumb I literally died laughing outloud when john got kicked down a single flight of stairs then proceeds to roll down 20 more flights for what seems like 10 minutes it was so stupid. This movie is awful compared to the originals. I would write a better more in depth review but this movie is bad and I cant believe the reviews are this good. Have you ever been to a movie in the theater and paid $50 for you and your partner and felt like u should have lit that money on fire instead or invested it in something that actually makes sense... NOT TO MENTION THE TIME INVESTMENT I WILL NEVER GET BACK MY 2 HOURS AND 49 MINUTES OF MY LIFE. That's even more upsetting than the money.… Expand
