If I had Keanu's killing skills I might do what he does. I recently acquired a cat from someone who was close to me and died unexpectedly. The good woman dies, but has a dog sent to Reeves as a remembrance. John Wick is a retired hit-man and walked away from the life of crime because of the love of a good woman. Stallone was just the kind of guy to go to war with the Russian mob and win as Keanu Reeves does here. Watching John Wick I was sure that this was a project offered first to Sylvester Stallone. Not really my sort of film.perhaps it will be yours. In many ways, it's like the Sonny Chiba 'Street Fighter' films.that violent and that dedicated to making sure all the victims are indeed dead! Mindless violence.albeit well choreographed violence. Blood and mayhem make this a lousy film to show your kids, mother or Father O'Reilly when he comes over for a visit! So, aside from being a bloodbath, is it any good? Yes, it's an excellent all-action IS hard to watch and is essentially a giant gore-fest. And, he doesn't just kill a few.he makes sure to kill them by double and triple-tapping his prey. Once the dog dies, it's pretty much a bloodbath from then on.with Wick dispatching countless goons VERY realistically on his way to ultimate revenge. To say "John WIck" is a violent film is a gross undestatement. Considering there are (so far) two MORE John Wick films, it pretty much seems certain who will win this battle. The jerk's father is a big-time Russian mobster.and it's a contest to see who will win.the mobster and his gang or Wick on his own.


Soon, the punk arrives at Wick's home with some goons where they surprise him-beating him senseless, destroying his stuff, killing his dog and stealing his car! This is when you then learn that Wick is a super-assassin.and the punk chose the wrong guy to attack. One day, he's getting gas and a young Russian-American punk notices Wick's classic car.and tries to buy it off him. After her death, he's a bit lost but tries to rebuild his life. When the story begins, John (Keanu Reeves) has just lost his wife.
