" 19 January. The second John Wick movie surpasses the original in terms of action, violence and head shots. It doesn't care if it follows the same plot, boldly saying if you want more, we're giving you more. Keanu Reeves has created a character that rivaled anything that he has ever done, even that one with Lawrence Fishburne, feeds us maniacal fun and glorifies the cult of the invincible assassin like never before. This looks to be the penultimate, but we shall see. "
"This is a brilliant sequel that dare I say is better than the first. Everything about it is fantastic from the action scenes, great performances and there's hardly any dull moments in it. What I love most is there's a possibility of a third movie which I hope does happen in the future. Director Chad Stahelski does what worked the first time around and tries to expand this world of assassins and continental hotels. The plot is just straightforward and simple, which the film just uses to put every"
"When I first saw John Wick, it immediately became my favorite action movie. Then I saw Chapter 2 and THAT immediately became my favorite. I have now seen this twice in the theater, my first time ever to do that for any film. Chapter 2 is an incredibly worthy sequel, better than the first, and has moved to number 1 in my all-time favorites. Spectacular film."
"21.2. Mitä enemmän mietin John Wick: Chapter 2:ta, sitä vähemmän pidän siitä. Ykkösosan tapaan toiminta on edelleen tyylikästä, mutta nyt väkivalta on vain niin käsittämättömän typerien motivaatioiden seurausta, ettei jaksa kiinnostaakaan. Elokuva koittaa niin kovaa kumarrella vakoojaelokuvakavereilleen, että omaa vakavasti otettavaa tarinaa jaksetaan hädin tuskin kertoa. Kingsmanmainen/bondmainen ase- ja pukupornoilu ja peilisaliammuskelu on kaukana siitä hotlinemiamimaisest"
"18/2/17 Bigger, longer and louder doesn't always help a movie. Keanu Reeves returns as the hitman everyone fears, except here they don't. A ludicrous plot with more violence that after a while becomes repetitive. Some interesting elements (The Continental Hotel, for example)and Reeves still amazes with his fight skills but it's not half as entertaining as the first film."
"SCREENING: The Gallery DATE: February 18th CINEMA: Showcase Cinema de Lux LOCATION: Bluewater NOTE: Cut for a 15 (it was just a wrist-slitting scene)."
"An engaging, brutally entertaining, and masterful sequel, that builds upon the world set up in the first film, in an intensely satisfying way, resulting in an even greater film, and one of the best straight-up action films of the decade. 9.7/10"
"Keanu shoots people in the head. The stuntwork/choreography is fantastic and the actors do a lot of the work themselves in the fighting-scenes. And just like in the first one they show that in wide shots and let the action go on...there isn't 100 cuts per second for a run through a alleyway (Taken 3 comes to mind always with this example). They also build on the world of assassins, the Counsil and Continental Hotels in this movie. The Continental Hotel in Rome had great actors cast into the role"
"Re-Watched 06/13/2017 Rating 7.5/10 Format: Blu Ray John Wick: Chapter Two lives up to its predecessor name and continues to be the best action movies of recent years. Now im not sure about you guys but i for one only want to see Keanu Reeves if its in another John Wick movie everything he has come out with in recent years that wasnt John Wick has been garbage. Im so freaking glad this turned out just like the first because at the time of when they announced the sequel i was a bit skeptical bu"
