    Wow, wow, wow! Talk about an amazing, violent, non-stop action revenge flick! I knew this would most likely be good but not THIS good. This flick is what it is billed to be and then some. Keanu breathes life into playing the perfect ex-hitman hellbent on revenge. This is simply the best, most violent, most entertaining, and most well shot action flicks to come out in years (outside of The Raid films).

    The gun battles and the way Reeves mows down those that crossed him is like watching a ballet...hosed off in great doses of blood splatter. Reeve's doesn't speak much in the film, nor does he have to since his guns do PLENTY of talking.

    Fucking awesome to see Reeves like this and fucking awesome to see an American made flick have the balls to portray this violence in a wide release. The movie will probably bomb at the Box Office since outside of rave reviews the movie is set to fail with little to no advertising. Hopefully word of mouth gets around and this takes in some nice cash.

    Either way this may seem overboard and some may roll their eyes but the rating this gets from me is 10/10... Fucking LOVED it!

    As expected--fun movie!

    Really dug the John Wick character and how he was already established heavily in the hitman culture. Actually, the fact that there was even an underground hitman culture (and hotel for them) makes the story even more fascinating and awesome. Mofos even have their own form of currency Also dug the style in which Wick wastes his foes. Pretty neat form of gunplay

    I wanted a fun action flick with badass characters and I got it. 7/10 (but a high 7) Bring on a sequel or even a prequel that shows how he became so badass, I don't care, I just want more John Wick madness

    For me this is how you make a hardcore action flick. Don't take yourself all to seriously, put a spin on it, pin your ears back and say "Fella's, we are going full fucking steam ahead!". This breaks the action/revenge cookie cutter mold and it does so...over the top and with some brains behind it.

    Great action flick. Aside from the cliched wrap up it's pretty solid. Loved it.

    For a revenge/action flick the fact that is really the only thing that is cliche about it is pretty astounding.

    Apparently a sequel is in development. According to directors Chad Stahelski and David Leitch: "We have ideas for days and without blinking twice we know we can outdo the action from the original. It’s the matter of story and how much you like the character. That’s always the most important. If there’s great action but you have a character that no one likes and doesn’t have charisma you’re not going to watch it. Look at any great action star, whether it’s Harrison Ford or Liam Neeson or Robert Downey Jr., pick a name, you love the guy first. Good action, bad action, you just love them in action. So we want to make sure we have a story and a character that everybody loves and then we’ll dress it with action that we promise will be awesome."

    I'd personally rather see a prequel that shows how Wick got to where he is now, but if that's not possible I'm hoping a sequel further explores the underground hitman society

    If they can make 3 Taken films there is no way this can't get a sequel...or prequel. Either way I'm down for whatever they do
