Med prisen på hovedet stadig stigende, afslører John Wick en vej til at besejre The High Table. Men før han kan gøre sig fortjent til sin frihed, skal Wick kæmpe mod en ny fjende med magtfulde alliancer over hele kloden og kræfter, der forvandler gamle venner til fjender.
Keanu is visibly sluggish here, raising the question of how much longer he can be pushed on-screen in black suits to perform kung fu.
Visually, this is the strongest of the franchise. The colors, cinematography, and production design are immaculate—every frame meticulously crafted. It’s a film carried almost entirely by its aesthetic, as the plot, thin as it is, offers little worth investing in.
The characters have grown tiresome, and while some of the action remains impressive, much of it feels repetitive. The violence, once inventive, now cycles through familiar patterns. A callback to the pencil only underscores how much the series is now referencing itself instead of evolving.
Several new characters border on cartoonish, and in a series that once felt grounded—at least within its own heightened reality—these additions feel crammed in. Their backstories add nothing, and the supposed tension built around them never resonates, since none of these figures are known well enough to matter.
It is no surprise that the films remain popular, and the expanded budget is evident in every set piece and location. What is surprising is the degree of praise this entry received, presented by many as a crowning achievement for the franchise.
If this were a first installment, it would be astonishing. But as the fourth, following diminishing returns across previous entries, it feels far less impressive.
