Movie Monday: John Wick 2
After the amazing John Wick, the first movie, we get the sequel that is just as good if not better. Expect some quick and deadly shooting, action packed moments and intense brutal combat! In a way John Wick 2 is the sequel we need but maybe not the one we deserve, but I'm happy that I saw it anyway!
Don't make John Wick mad?
If there is one thing that I learned from the movies is that you don't piss off John Wick. In the first movie some piece of shit killed his dog and stole his car, of course John Wick couldn't let that go and got his revenge. In the sequel an old acquaitance visits him and wants to collect on a favor. John refuses and the old acquaintance burns down his house. Forced to help this douchebag John goes to Rome and does the job for him. But afterwards everything goes to hell and it seems that John is as far from retirment as a student just fresh out of college!
John Wick the killing machine?
The interesting part about John Wick is that he's human, but his determination and skill make him almost immortal. He takes hits, he will bleed but it seems he will never stop to get where he wants to go or to accomplish what he set out to do. In the sequel John faces some tougher opponents, other hired killers that know how to kill and are no joke themselves. But John is the superior assassin so he can hold his own eventhough it's not as easy as you might think. What I also like a lot about the sequel is that you see some familiar faces, the one I was most excited about was Laurence Fishburne (they played together in the Matrix trilogy), and how John seems to always keep his cool. Ok there are moments where you can see that he's mad but he seems pretty cool about killing a lot of guys. I guess a professional killer doesn't show emotions when he kills, unless John really is a machine...
Should you check out this movie?
If you enjoyed the first movie then you definitely want to see the sequel, if you haven't seen the first movie then first check that one out and then watch the sequel. If you like fast action packed movies then this is the type of movie for you because it looks really good. Just the scenes where John shoots enemies like it's nothing are already pretty good but then you get the awesome characters as well which makes the movie very enjoyable to watch. Keanu Reeves is once again the man as John Wick and I can't wait for the third movie!
