  I CAN'T BELIEVE KEANU [SPOILER REDACTED] WITH A [SPOILER REDACTED] AND THAT'S ONLY IN THE FIRST 10 MINUTES

  It deeply upsets me that the Oscars don't have a category for choreography.

  There's a sense of wide-eyed wonder that overcomes me in certain moviegoing experiences that makes me feel the way I imagine everybody on this website felt when they first saw a spectacle like Star Wars as a child. As soon as that feeling hits me, all sense of critical objectivity goes out the window. I don't care to think about any lifeless, trope-ridden dialogue or over-explicit sequel set-up that ruins a movie's ending, I can only think of the feeling it gave me. And in my heart, I believe that's what movies are supposed to be.

  Criticism has it's place in the culture of film, and thoughtful…

  spent the first 20 minutes or so discussing whether or not the John Wick franchise could be considered a comedy, and while i feel like the dialogue leans too heavily into the drama/action, SO much of the physicality of these movies, especially 2 and 3, is clearly designed to be as funny as it is impressive. i mean, how do you not scream-laugh at the knife fight or the sheer amount of glass shattering in the third act? i giggle a little every single time keanu uses something new to smack away someone's hand right as they're firing a gun. it doesn't feel like it fits alongside any other movie you'd call a comedy or an action comedy, and maybe…

  JOHN WICK: Your regular Sunday night action movie with some nice choreography being thrown here and there.

  JOHN WICK 2: An action fantasy saga that mark the beginning of a mythology.

  JOHN WICK 3: 21st century equivalent of a Buster Keaton/Charlie Chaplin motion picture.

  JOHN WICK 4: Cure cancer? We'll never know.

  Review by matt lynch ★★★★ 12

  Easily the weakest WICK; John's journey out of existential Hell is largely abandoned for an entire movie dedicated to writing itself out of the cliffhanger from the last one. But nobody's shooting action like this: the clean display of athleticism, the sheer vicious glee of the violence, the truly dazzling use of color and cornball symbolism. I'd love it if the part 4 that this is so clearly promising ditched the mythology and went back to basics, but I'd be lying if I said this wasn't an absolute blast.

  Review by Sean Baker 20

  Might just be one of my top ten faves of the year. The action set pieces are next level and the spaghetti western and Game of Death influences are worn on its sleeve -- which I love. Stunt and FX team really kicked butt with this film.

  Dan Laustsen should be nominated for cinematography although, there are moments in the third act (the rooftop scene) that look strangely more digital than the rest of the film. Not sure why.

  I bet this series goes the way of Fast & Furious where each installment improves on the previous.

  Review by Matt Singer ★★★★½ 8

  “Sofia, don’t.”
  “He shot my dog.”
  “I get it.”

  I want Sofia’s dogs, and Cliff Booth’s dog to form a Doggie Avengers team. The Dogvengers, basically. The dog from The Art of Racing in the Rain can be like the Nick Fury.

  Sorry; Nick Furry.
