John Wick 2

‘’As I live and *breathe*! John Wick. The man. The myth. The legend. You're not very good at retiring’’, states Bowery King.

‘’I'm working on it’’, replies John Wick.

The above quote is from the early scenes in the movie.

John Wick 2 is straight up action. You know the type we always longed for as teenagers that would get our blood pumping.

As teenagers, any movie with too much talk was boring. All we wanted then was the sound of guns blazing.

Now as Adults, we still long for the same thing secretly but we mask it by saying ‘’if only action movies would have substance.’’

Keanu Reeves has always been one of my favourite action stars. Matrix anyone? The intensity of his acting and his running gait coupled with his "bow legs" will always put him on my top five lists.

John Wick 2 carries off from where the first movie stopped and builds sensibly on it and with an action-packed feast. I still remember my friend Dele shouting excitedly that Wick always makes sure of the kill with a follow up shot to the head, I personally was always "tripped" by the arm lock on the 
opponent while he shoots over the human shield and reloads his gun with one hand.


And I can’t get enough of this double action soon to be a triple action with John Wick 3 as indicated with the statement at the end, ‘’Winston... tell them... Tell them all... Whoever comes, whoever it is... I'll kill them. I'll kill them all” as he walks off.
