Review of John Wick: Chapter 2 (2017) by Joeyabuki — 22 Mar 2019

Just one word: Amazing; one of the best sequels of all times; action scenes made by the own american Bruce Lee, Keanu Reeves; Jackie Chan, JetLi & Jason Statham are nobody compare to this guy; an immediate continuation of the first one, with a common thread among scenes, a continuity that explains what the other installment doesn't; it expands this mythology of the Continental Hotel, the assassins, this sect in the underworld life very different than the one we know; it still expands the good things from the first one but in another place (Rome) without repeating the same we watched before, is not a remake; there is no a funny character, has some comic moments; the character has his moral/honor code that makes us likes him because he doesn't kill for killing, if he doesn't have to kill you, he lets you leave; He has an inner suffering, typical tough hero who doesn't talk much.

He isn't a superhero (but he seems), is a regular person & makes you feel that you can be him. lots of action without any cuts, many weapons, hand-to-hand fights, Jujitsu; It's not the typical movie where the bullets are always; people hurts him, It's much more credible than the rest of films of this genre.

a Cassian (Common) spin-off could be made, since he follows the same method as John, behaves in the same way; the choreographies are beautiful, the production design is visually exquisite and photography is beautiful.

This is La La Land for action movies. I want John Wick 3 now.
