Finally - an action movie that is just action. No plot required.

Rating: 5/10 (8 March 2017)

Let me be brief on this one: If all you care about is action and re-iterating reloading sequences - this is your movie. 5 ways to speed reload your gun. Not quite the elaborate shooting style of Equilibrium but almost. A little bit of Max Payne and Matrix. Plus: JW2 does it without a plot. But who needs a plot anyway? You can't even spoil this movie. There is no twist that you could accidentally leak to potential viewers. It is too simple. Full-of-himself-Mobster pisses of John Wick. John Wick kills the mob and then the mobster, breaking the rules of the mob. Walks (ok, runs) into the sunset. Chapter 3 to see more mobster shooting and killing. And btw. the cities are filled with contract killers. They are everywhere. Literally everywhere. And they all got old (aka "burner") phones. There must be a retro-phone factory just to serve the contract killer community. Lots of retro style - but not quite as cool as in "Wanted". Character development? Ahhhhh, let's pass on that one. The mobster is just as 2 dimensional as his female body guard played by Ruby Rose. What a loss. Just to think what a talented screenwriter could have done with those characters... The acting suffers from the little opportunity to actually interact in any kind of meaningful dialogue. They all are just moving targets for the bullets fired by John Wick. Even the dog is little more than decoration. What a disappointment. Whoever says this piece of B-Movie material is a masterpiece definitely has a very low expectation level.
