Trailer Review 034 John Wick Chapter 2



John Wick Chapter 2
[021017] Chance of Success =  80^%


"Or do you wanna just give me a gun?"
"Whoever comes, I'll kill them all."
"The man, the myth, the legend: John Wick."
"You're not very good at retiring." "I'm working on it."

An impressive first look on the expansion of the established mythology in John Wick's world, following his gun-toting journey back into the hitman business & everything that comes along with it.

+ Highlights +
somber and European soundtrack fitting the change of location, picturesque scenery of the beautiful Rome with ornate architecture, tactical suit fitting, an arsenal shop for hitman abroad, the return to the Continental Hotel, more vehicular action, the beautiful aerial shot, more diverse settings for the shootouts from open in the public to secluded in secret, the scene in the dark possibly underground, bike on car crash scene, an old pal in Laurence Fishburne, the parting of the guests for the impending shootout


? Points of contention ?
he's putting on the suit after a supposed brawl because of the fresh bruises, the bullet hole wounds and tattoos showed his past experience and principles, he returned to the Hotel after a potential unscheduled scuffle based on the stains on his shirt, the crying over spilled milk or rather burned down building being the catalyst for this movie, him screaming seemingly under restraint or interrogation

- Lowlights -
the possibility of repeating a story beat from previous film of avenging something personal to him that was taken away by the bad guy

Cast
Keanu Reeves as John Wick, Laurence Fishburne as the Bowler King, Ian Mcshane as Winston, Ruby Rose as Ares, ...
