Basically John Wick...
but with an older whiter guy
shareMaybe it's a slight retread of JW but I'm happy to have a reason to go to the movies. It looks like it could be fun.
shareI thought it was like John Wick except better. No boring fluff, far superior acting talent in the lead, great sense of humor, amazing fight scenes that take their time and feel earned/meaningful, and just an overall amazing experience.
shareInterestingly enough Keanu Reeves is only 2 years younger than Odenkirk but I can understand the assumption of there being a bigger age discrepancy. Keanu looks good for his age, thus retaining a degree of "agelessness" & has maintained a resonance with the youth throughout his successful film career since his 20s, thanks to a few iconic roles like Neo, John Wick and even Ted, as well as starring in video games. Odenkirk on the other hand is a career character actor who only became somewhat known after he started playing a middle aged lawyer on Breaking Bad & now Better Call Saul so that's pretty much all he's known for.
shareIt is written by the guy who wrote the first three John Wick films, so it makes sense. That being said, enough is different that this movie is still just as fun to watch. It's also a bit more grounded in reality which was nice. Honestly I hope there's a sequel.
shareJohn Wick? Seemed more like “Falling Down” to me.
