FilmApe’s review published on Letterboxd:
John Wick is a straight up action film, that lets shots linger rather than cutting every millisecond. It was the point after the extended shot of Keanu Reeves grappling for a knife with a baddie, which ends with Keanu literally beating the knife into the guy's chest, that I knew this film was something special. This is action mainlined straight into the vein, and I'm a fan.
