Movie Review – John Wick 1

actor keanu reeves
Let’s all say his best known line together: “Whoa.”

I loved the movie John Wick; it was violent without being gory.

What I liked most about the movie was the choreography of the action scenes. I’ve seen my share of action movies and I must say that the action in John Wick is top notch.

That shouldn’t come as a surprise, because the directors are David Leitch and Chad Stahelski. These two have been the stunt/action coordinators on practically every action movie in the past decade: V for Vendetta, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, 300, Live Free or Die Hard, Fight Club, Troy…and lets not forget to mention The Matrix Trilogy.

Since this is their first time working as directors, you’re probably thinking, “Sure, they can put together a great fight scene, but how are they at all the other parts of the movie?” That’s what’s most surprising. The acting was good; a little flat at times, but certainly good enough for an action film.

Besides, we’re talking about a movie with Keanu Reeves as the lead. We should expect a flat performance, right? Except no! The biggest surprise in the movie is that Keanu can really act. Sure, for the majority of the movie he’s the Keanu we expect, but there’s one scene in John Wick where he finally cuts loose. It was like he saved up every ounce of emotion from every movie he’s ever been in and let it loose all at once.

And believe me, you’ll know the scene when you see it.

So we have great action, and good acting, but what about the story, you ask? Rest easy — the story is simple and keeps the movie going between action scenes. They didn’t try to get cute and create something complex or mysterious. The story feels real as it unfolds, and delivers an appropriate amount of humor without forcing it.

I’m trying to think of something to be critical of, but drawing a blank. The only thing I can come up with is that John Wick is just a very good movie, but not super awesome. I don’t know about you, but I’ll take “just very good” any day of the week.

Movie Grade:  B+

Movie Watching Must Have!!

I go feral for this app. I love it so much and I wish everyone knew about it and used it. It is incredibly useful and I would be devastated if this app ever disappeared. Things I love: 1) the pee times! It’s so handy to know the best time to go and then read the synopsis of what’s happening while I’m gone. I never have to worry about missing the good bits! 2) knowing if there is a post-credits scene or not. This might be my fav feature because I would have missed out on some pretty critical scenes if it weren’t for RunPee. 3) the movie review and viewer rankings. This info has made me watch some movies that I normally wouldn’t and it’s nice seeing things outside of my usual scope. 4) that it’s a small family run business. I love shopping small and it really does feel like I’m part of the RunPee family! If you reach out to them, Dan will personally respond to you and he is so warm and helpful. GET THIS APP AND THEN SUBSCRIBE! It is absolutely worth it and you’ll be using it again and again!

  1. […] are amazing with action scenes that are some of my favorites.  (Can we get Milla Jovovich in a John Wick movie please?)  The series tends to lean heavily on action (at the expense of scares) so if  […]
