so you can gun shootouts in middle of popular European cities ?


no cops, every acts like its totally normal

reply

I have never been to Europe but would imagine that "anything goes" overseas. So yes. Compared to America they have very little infrastructure ie cops or police force. Its very lawless. The wild west. Poor.

Can't tell if you're trolling or stupid. . .care to clarify?

I have never been to the hospital you were received as a baby but the whole medical crew working there should be fired for medical Malpractice.

reply

I do like your herd mentality and malleability.

reply

The whole film series is a sort of parallel universe. So sometimes you have to accept that it’s fiction

reply

You just can’t compare Europe to America. I would never live there. The only reason JW4 is set there is cuz it’s cheap to shoot in that country. America is the elite. It’s not called EuroTrash for nothing.

reply

to shoot in that country

Because Europe is a country... Your knowledge is amazing. You better stay where you are. We already have enough dimwits here.
And yeah, based on your knowledge I am sure you are part of some kind of "elite".

reply

If you hate America you are a terrorist! God bless

reply

Where did I say that I "hate" America? Maybe you should look for some help when answering to a post with more than 5 words...

reply

5 words? You need to learn how to count bro!

reply

You need to learn how to use your pea-sized brain. My reply had more than 5 words and you were unable to understand it.
Q.e.d.

Ok brother! Where in the US are you from?

Filming in Paris where you have to cut off all the people, local and the tons of tourists, at the Arc de Triomphe, Sacre Coeur, the Louvre, and the Eiffel Tower must be one of the most expensive shoots ever. America has many things and its own history but nothing can compare to Paris or Italy. It was shot there to tell the story of Wick. Kind of like Dumas. The honor of a musketeer.

Just out of curiosity, where do you think the Porsche 911 comes from.

Get a new Sarcasm Detector, yours seem to have stopped working...

This is world where everyone is a part time assassin, so it wouldn't phase them.

That's why those people in the club didn't stop dancing even after seeing John behead a man with an axe!

reply

seems like 90% of assassins are male , so i wonder if the Ballerina will be 90% female

reply

I didn't like the rip off, call back, or homage (take your pick) to "The Warriors" at all. Way too forced and cheesy for my taste.

Now, to answer your question . . . in a film where a blind man can dodge bullets, anticipate the enemies every fist and foot movement during the course of a fight, and shoot straight for his target (but during the break in action has to wave a stick around in order to avoid bumping into something) . . .

In a film where hundreds of bullets always miss the key players but in which the hero (rarely) misses . . .

In a film where each enemy fighter patiently awaits their turn to fight Wick instead of piling on at the same time . . .

. . sure, why not?

reply

You do realize this is set in a fictional universe where police aren’t really a thing? Either you’re trolling or just stupid

reply

Once again, accusing people of trolling for having an opinion. Reported again.

Your toxicity knows no bounds.

reply

Stop stalking me you creep

reply

You can in the movies lol, if you want "realism" go watch a documentary.

reply

It was completely ridiculous, yes. Especially the dance club scenes. Guns firing, people getting shot in the face, no problem.

And honestly that brings me to one of my continuous gripes with this franchise: the gun violence is toned down (censored?) so much that it is practically PG-13. All these constant headshots should have skulls blown open, faces exploding, eyes, blood, and brains blown all over the place, arms and legs blown off, to the point where it would be seriously disgusting to watch. But it's not, and it gets strangely boring.

reply

John Wick 4 have production quality at a top tier level! Some sequences are amazing. However the gun violence is sub par and for the most part silly.
Best part of the film imho is the patriarch sequences on this “old money” settings. Pure art.
