I think a solo visit to the cinema is in order. I love Neo and Morpheus reunions :smiler:

Seems like it might be worth following films produced by David Leitch. The films he's produced so far....

John Wick (uncredited directing credits)
John Wick 2
John Wick 3
Nobody
Kate
Bullet Train (also directed by)
Violent Night

Next film on the agenda after John Wick 4 appears to be The Fall Guy and will also be directed by him.

bit disappointed to be honest. not that I expect much other than shoot 'em up, blow 'em up..but this one contained loads of stuff in the other 3 films chucked together. the dog, car with the doors ripped off, squashing others with the car etc. etc. etc.

at least the others iirc had a bit of a plot...

worst of the whole 4 I'm afraid. passed a couple of hours of course, but a bit of a disappointment nevertheless..

Stylish b*llocks, like 2 & 3 then. Looks amazing in 4k Dolby vision on an OLED telly. Preferred the stunt sequencing in the first one, which was OTT but not ridiculously. Simple, well-executed judo trips and throws look less silly than the flying helicopter takedowns that replaced them in the sequels.

Actually the stuff with the dragons breath shotgun cartridges is excellent.

Same for me. Don't usually watch films but this kind of thing is just switch off and zombie out.

I enjoyed it - but I don't think they should continue with it. Was it just me or did John Wick look like he was showing his age a bit in this one? After all, he's 58 years old now. I just thought he looked a little less mobile and fluid when compared to the first couple. Like a 58 year old who's been asked to do a little more than his body can now handle.

After also watching Rogue One, I also wonder if American film producers actually realise that Donnie Yen isn't really blind.
