Yeah, I went to see it. The first time I've gone to see a Hollywood movie in theaters since Avengers: Endgame. I had basically sworn that off, though a time to see the first three on a free streaming service did provide me with good entertainment, so I knew what to expect, and I was not disappointed at all. Over the top violent fun, "toxic masculinity" abound, and a couple of plot points that just don't make any goddamn sense.
I wanted to like "Nobody," but I don't think there was enough explanation behind him to make his actions make sense. At the very least, his action scenes with his dog were much better than the Halle Berry rinse & repeat from 3. I always liked the "old badass" look Hiroyuki Sanada has going for him ever since The Last Samurai. There is a "strong female character," but she's not a "girl boss that only excels so that male characters are brought down;" she has to play to her own strengths to get the upper hand as she does, and has to struggle to do so. Actually, one of the most impressive things I saw in this movie was a strange turnabout as John is chasing down a fat bastard mafioso, when suddenly, the fat bastard actually fights back EXTREMELY WELL.
No cliffhanger on this one. The story is wrapped up unless they pull some really screwy shit. But hey, it's John Wick, it wouldn't be the first time.
Didn't they kill John Wick and set up they were replacing him with a chick?
The only thing that was unresolved is a conflict between two characters that could very well be a spinoff. Strong girl was gone for the rest of the movie after her scenario, which was EARLY in this really goddamn long movie.
Except both dudes she could have a conflict with end up dead by the end. .
There's enough room for a fifth if Reeves and that other chick(?) can come up with a script. It's already been greenlit
Donnie Yen?
Donnie Yen was redeemed at the end. Unless they make her a bad guy they're not gonna have her kill him. That would be a shitty twist.
