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.
