Not bad for movie cheap night.

Rating: 6/10 (15 November 2014)

Not bad for movie cheap night. My wife and I went to John Wick on cheap Tuesday. John Wick was a good stress release for a bad week. What worked: Reeve's is a physical actor, how he moves, walks, etc and plays the action sequences well. Jason Statham would have been a better John Wick. The revenge plot where mobsters kill John's dog and steals his car resonates with the viewer. What did not work: The action is too fast in a video game style. There was a need for more humor, which the movie Mel Gibson's Payback implemented well. If you are in the market for a revenge flick I recommend Payback over John Wick. John Wick is okay. A VOD movie. Six out of ten.
