I hope Jason Manzoukas is in it again.

Should really be watched at Xmas mind
Sounds about right. I once watched A Clockwork Orange on Christmas Day, it really went well.

Wick rules but this shit doesn’t need to be almost 3 hours long.

Totally agree, this ain’t the godfather

Yeah, got pretty bummed seeing that runtime, but hoping this is more excessive in the vein of RRR and less like one of the recent lumpen Marvel atrocities.

I can't explain why but I want to see that trailer but with Sarah Brand "Red Dress" as the backing music

any movie over 2 hours = i'm lucky if I get through it without two pee breaks

If it’s that long that means I’ll wait to watch it at home and split it into 3 segments

normal ugh @ long run times for action movies but a) more keanu and b) moar fights

I am “pro” JW4 being seven minutes longer than Godfather 3, this is a franchise which has earned my trust. Length never bothers me, pacing does. And I assume ten minutes of this will be stunt credits at the end.

i've seen all three of these and would be hard pressed to tell you what the plot is beyond 'keanu kills people and there is some assassins syndicate'. I need to rewatch before 4.

Good interview that Ned posted. I appreciate the dude’s craft; in other hands and with worse casting these series could be terrible and so many Wick knockoffs are just plain dire.
― omar little, Friday, 17 March 2023 15:39 (one year ago) link
Said elsewhere these reminded me a bit of Warriors/Streets of Fire-type movies, not the Walter Hill style but this heightened reality. Probably more Warriors than anything, esp w/the entire city out to get them, a peer network turned against the hero(es).
― omar little, Friday, 17 March 2023 15:43 (one year ago) link
I appreciate the dude’s craft
Yeah he seems to have the right sense of 'give the people what they want' balanced with 'let's make this as good as the setup allows.' Not always easy!
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 17 March 2023 15:59 (one year ago) link
stahelski is still great at making sure the movies are in service of the action/stuntsthey’re great at staying in their lane even when the story gets full on diagon alley with hidden worlds & shit

Chapter 4 seen.
It is indeed incredibly Wick.
It is important to note there is a fully at-the-end post-credits scene.

Would you call it a kicker?

Loved this. Only film series I can think of that gets progressively better.
World peace would be nice but a part of me wants to live in this world where amazing fighters/assassins are so commonplace that people at dance clubs and drivers don't feel the need to avoid them that much. And it's much harder to kill people.
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Sunday, 26 March 2023 04:23 (one year ago) link
just got out. it was no John Wick imo but it had its moments.as always, fantastic cast (of old people!) getting a chance to have so much fun, incredible stunts, sexy hardware if you like the kinda thing.. and of course a dog.if this is how the wickverse ends, we got our money’s worth. tho it did leave some spin-off potential…
