WOAHHH!!! Why do you still cheer for him? You do right?! I can't explain it. This was A LOT! I was entertained and grossed out at the same time... Do I want to watch 3 still? Yes, yes I do.

2023-03-18 08:55:10 Isn't March Pedro Pascal month with finishing TBBF, watching The Last of Us and Mando S3? 😃 For me, this is one of those movie series where the first one was outstanding, but I have mixed feelings about the sequels. In the first one, as a viewer, you immediately had an emotional connection to Wick's character thanks to the tragic backstory about his wife and the dog and you could understand his anger, grief and rampage. This is something that is entirely missing in the sequels, those are essentially just back-to-back action (but good one, I admit that), and diving into a more and more unplausible assassin world.

RIP Lance Reddick! You were a real one!

William Bryan

I'll say it again watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre in Oct. You can handle it now

Richard Bourne

I'd like a tasting with something big for the end of the night. I also need two suits, one for day and one for night, Italian, two button, and tactical. LOL. Come on this is great stuff. You've got to watch three, if for nothing else they got Halle Berry on board and she trained for it with K Reeves. The guns and the shooting tactics are real.

Christopher Smith

Gonna rewatch from Fringe now for some Lance Reddick and Anna Torv.

Richard Bourne

I know, terrible. He was what, 61? At least his character had a larger part in JW3 and hopefully so in JW4,

Richard Bourne

Cassie, first your hair looks nice. Secondly, John Wick's car is a 1969 Ford Mustang, a classic muscle car.

Planner

The movie "Equilibrium" for another one where the main character can just kill everyone 😀 I'm not sure /why/ you asked, but there you go.

Martin Carter

You've literally made me insane. There, I'm insane. It was Babayaga. And Babaganoush is Arabic for Sweet Daddy or a dip made from eggplant.

Jyn Jilly

Lance Reddick brought a swagger and class to every project he was in including and especially John Wick films. RIP to a fantastic actor

djKENTO

Oh especially the original. It uses smart editing and sound to make you think you’re seeing more than you are. Hooper was so smart when given a small budget.

djKENTO

My Lance Reddick recommendation for everyone is Batman Unburied on Spotify. It’s an old school radio drama where Batman’s family never died and he is a doctor and medical examiner for the police. Lance Reddick plays Thomas Wayne. It’s a tremendous performance and series. Very fresh take on Batman <3

EligiusXCVI

I will always enjoy Charon saying "As always, it is a pleasure to have you with us again, Mr Wick." Rip Lance

William Bryan

Plus I think Cassie could handle the original. I think the 2003 remake is better than the original but it might be rough on Cassie.

Charles Briggs

Finally John Wick Chapter 2 been waiting for this Hopefully John Wick Chapter 3 doesn't take as long get a reaction 😂😂 also R.I.P. Lance Reddick such a dope actor 🙏

Tim Raths

I will always remember Lance Reddick as Lt. Daniels on The Wire. RIP Mr. Reddick, it was a pleasure to have you.

Robin Craft

I'm gonna get tarred and feathered for this but I actually preferred this sequel more than the original. The mano a mano fight with Cassian (Common), John's selection of his tactical clothing and weapons, Italy and his dog lives. Also along with others... Rest in Peace Lance Reddick

Choof

That's my thinking as well, that the first has an emotional starting point and relatable arc that this assassin and crime underworld gets layered on as it goes as a fun garnish. After that it's this labyrinthine maze of rules and council's and terminology that feels like the snake eating it's tail of lore.

LionBro

If you haven't already, can you watch the Ocean's trilogy?

Josh Phillips

Loved this movie. John Wick is like a one man version of DEVGRU.

Paul Ark

"He speaks Russian, Italian...doesn't believe in lights." hahahaha, best reaction comment ever =D

Björn Karlsson

Did you know that John Wick's granddad was born in Finland? There is now a movie about him 😃😃 https://youtu.be/2NnPzpuU5ao

Mike LL

They spelled it out onscreen as Baba Yaga in the first movie. And Baba Yaga is mentioned in Antman by one of those guys working with Louis.

R Harper

And you want to watch #3 . . . What about Lethal Weapon 3 and 4? What about Die Hard 3? Considered by many fans and critics to be the best Die Hard. I'm all for John Wick 3 still think you need to clean house on movie series you've already started 👍

Tim Raths

She watched the first Wick movie almost two years ago. Die Hard and Lethal Weapon are more recent.

Just Plain Bob

I love the John Wick movies. They’re a wonderful update on the 70s revenge thriller. I used to attend the Fantastic Fest film festival in Austin each year. They usually have one or two world premieres during the course of the festival. In 2014, the movie they premiered was John Wick. There had been no tv advertising for the movie, no word of mouth or magazine articles. Just nothing to indicate the movie had even been made. And then, suddenly, they premiered the movie at Fantastic Fest. I was lucky enough to have a VIP badge that year and be able to attend the premiere. I still remember the young ladies going nuts when Keanu Reeves walked the very short red carpet they had set up in the lobby. Great experience.

Steve Colletti

And the dogs! JW2 felt a bit too repetitious in places to me, especially John working his way through the museum.

R Harper

I can see what you're saying, but by that logic the Mission Impossible series should have been eight months between each film reaction the IM films were knocked out like clockwork.

Odd Thomas

Love the first film. The sequels not so much.

Richard Bourne

I was trying to avoid a spoiler with that, but YES, dog lovers will be impressed.

Matt Mabry

He and Hallie Berry trained at Taran Tactical. It is out on Youtube. He and Berry really put in the honest work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xii9_oWQ7HY

Just Plain Bob

Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention. Had never heard of it but I just downloaded every episode to my phone. He was a tremendous actor and taken too soon. Can’t wait to listen to this series. I’m a sucker for radio dramas (I have several hundred MP3s of everything from The Shadow to The Hermit’s Cave) and this seems to fit right in my sweet spot. Thanks again!

Woody G

I think we'll need a lot more comfort blankets for John Wick 3

Just Plain Bob

PS to my previous reply: Just finished the first episode and it was awesome! Can’t wait to listen to the rest. Thanks yet again!

Rick Williams

You thought John Wick 2 was a little violent? Maybe. 😁 Great reaction. You don't like the squishy noises? You had the same issue watching 300. You asked why must he shoot them in the head after shooting them in the heart? To be sure they are done. Double tap. One in the chest. One in the head. That's normally good enough to make sure they are no longer a threat. Now on to John Wick 3. Preferably in less than a year and a half this time. How about next week? That's good for me. 😉 Until next time. Be good.

Rick Williams

Cassie's hair is always nice. Some people are just blessed like that. She probably wakes up looking like that. 😋

Michael Lynch

Watching all the killings. Cassie: No, stop it. It’s too much. The rest of us: awesome headshot and tactical reloading. More more more.

Ike

Is this the one with Halle Berry?

Gary Smith

No.Thats the next one.

Uncle Phoenix

FYI; The High Table is a Deep State myth. According to the myth the High Table is where elected representatives from the Order of the Black Sun and the Order of the Dragon families come together yearly to elect their leader, The Pindar. According to the myth, the elders from the Black Sun Clan and the Dragon Families run the whole world; and The Pindar is one of the only people who can overrule a member of the High Table.

Tringard

Your reaction to Fishburne (Morpheus) showing up was perfect matching how the rest of us reacted to that scene.

Alex Gorell

This is definitely an unpopular opinion but outside of the first movie I don’t care about this franchise at all.

Rue

Yeah, I'm honestly surprised that it's made it as far as it has in terms of sequels - I guess everybody was just so hyped that Keanu was acting again, they just wanted to have him do as much as he possibly can before he retires for real-real. It's not that the story's bad? It's really not. It's just very, very... thin. I think the most interesting thing about the entire franchise is the whole secret world of international assassins that have this exclusive means of paying each other for things, places to stay, doctors, rules, etc. Fascinating shit, but they don't put enough of it into the universe to make it anything more than "watch Keanu Matrix the shit out of all the things for 2 hours." Which - fair enough, but again - that's some thiiiiiiiiiiin plot.

Armchair Wizard

well speaking for myself, as an action movie afficionado, they're very enjoyable due to the spectacular fight scenes. The movies were made by stunt people, and they know how to make a fun action film. I mean, Mad Max Fury Road is a fantastic film, but its also very loose on story. Thats the point though.

Dave Sees Movies

If we're trying to get Cassie to consider great Lance Reddick performances, ya can't go wrong with "The Wire." Of course, you need 60 hours to watch it, so maybe take it in chunks.

Jon Johns

Hey buddy! Here is Cassie's letterboxed, most of what she's seen off channel is here: https://letterboxd.com/pib1/films/by/name/

Philip Davetas

Hell yeah. Part 3 is a masterpiece. Although I hear part 4 is epic.

Tim Raths

It also has Idris Elba and a 15 year old Michael B. Jordan.

Rue

I mean, yeah - Mad Max: Fury Road is such a conceptual piece as a film, you don't even have to have seen any of the previous films in the franchise in order to enjoy it or figure out relatively quickly what's going on. I do love it more than the other films in the franchise, but for completely different reasons than any good points I might pick out about the original films. lol I will say that this is one of the best acting performances I've ever seen out of Keanu, like ever - so that's something.

Just Plain Bob

I don’t know. I suspect it was because it was an unknown franchise and they were taking a bit of a gamble with it and didn’t want to risk spending more money. But that’s pure speculation on my part. The year before they had premiered Man of Thai Chi, a film that Reeves starred in and directed. I liked it a lot. But it bombed at the box office. Hollywood has a short memory for success but the memory of an elephant for failures, so I suspect that played a part. Again, pure speculation on my part.

Just Plain Bob

I really, really recommend the Fantastic Fest film festival for fans of genre cinema. It’s outrageously good fun held at my favorite movie theater in the world, the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, TX. My best theater-going experiences are all centered around that theater.

Luke Godfrey

It's super fascinating to see Cassie's reaction to this type of movie. The sheer look of horror on her face at the gratuitous violence that made me smile, made rewatching this movie all the more enjoyable. I'm probably more excited to see her reaction to Chapter 3 than I am the remaining episodes of The Last Of Us, and that's saying something!

Mike LL

A Cassie watch of The Wire would be too good to be true.

Martin Carter

I actually feel bad when I know she's watching something that will be a hard watch. District 9 is a great example.

The King In The North

Still remember when this movie came out on Valentine’s Day weekend. Took my then girlfriend obviously now ex to see this instead of the new fifty shades of grey movie that came out on the same day lol probably that’s why she dumped me lol she still loved the movie though lol

Joe M

Well now you obviously have to continue with Chapter 3 right? And no this was way better than the first.

David RedEagle

John Wick 3 for Easter would be awesome. Or just something cool for April 9th. Its my birthday.

Ramzi M. A. Ramzi

Suddenly, a light bulb moment…Baba Ganoush 😂

Joey

Boom shakalaka was my fav...Must've had Duke Caboom on the mind haha

Jimmy Reyes

question to assassin baddassary for killing people. Rambo (John Rambo), the Equalizer (robert McCall), Taken (Bryan Mills), Kill Bill (the bride), Mad Max (mel gibson), The long kiss goodnight (samantha Caine),

Clay F

No love story. No significant back story. Instead, a thin story. The stylized action/well-performed violence makes the movie.
