Long, but goes fast, and was enjoyable.

I own the first one watch it onc e or twice a year. I know I watched the second one and I remember thinking it wasn’t great…but I don’t remember the first thing about it. If I’ve seen three, I don’t remember it. I’ll watch four when it becomes free.

1 is still the best, 4 is better than 2 and 3.

This is the correct answer. I never saw them in the theater, I watched all three one weekend via streaming. 2 was OK, 3 wasn't really good. I think the bottom line is, there's only so much gratuitous violence and mayhem I can take in one sitting, and John Wick movies....exceed that threshold. May or may not choose to stream 4 when it makes it to video.

I've seen 2 on TV, which cut out 35 minutes and added in an hour's worth of commercials.

I do have the BluRays for both 2 and 3, but haven't taken the time to watch them.

I'm about to climb into bed, and going to complete watching for the 2nd time. Definitely tie backs to the original, and actually a small bit of humor. Not going to give anything away, but the entire 2:49 minutes is non-stop action.

I did enjoy from #3:


wonder how long it took them to shoot that scene.

Haven't even seen the first movie. This is the one about a guy who murders a bunch of people because somebody killed his dog? Four movies about a Millennial wet dream?

I really liked the dog scenes in 3. I think they were Malinois, but whatever they were, they were really well trained.

Reeves is about as a "one dimensional" actor as is Nicolas Cage - but he knows his genre and stays within it and is thus successful - and a damn fine human being to boot. They are both trying hard to develop a second facial expression.

Now back to watching Queen Latifa remaking the role in the "Equalizer" series - fat ass trying to do karate has the coffee squirting out my nose.

JW4 was good. The 1st and 2nd were the best.

Yes, that's it. He was pissed. You would be too if your dog flew and played basketball, only to be killed by some lady that hates Dalmations.
