Oh man. I have all kinds of mixed emotions here.

1) Love 1 and 2
2) I thought 3 was really bad. Keanu looks like he's lost half a step so the fights got increasingly unbelievable and dumb. Bad dialogue, so much "I must be the one to kill you," look at me laugh while blood spews out of my neck as I die.
3) I love Sanada and Yen. Hell yeah.
4) GD that was some wooden acting.
5) Not in it for the acting, obviously.
6) More of the "shooting at each other at point blank with bullet-proof suits" that I don't really like.

I dunno man. I dunno anymore.

Requisite gun/sword battle in crowded club? Check.
Dog? Check
No law enforcement involvement? Check

Let's do this

Pump it straight into my veins!

Also really interested in the Ana de Armas spin off one

oh

You think they'd aim at the hand or the face.

This!! One of the things I thought was so awesome about the first one is that it'sa total headshot-orama.

Head and shoulders above the other two movies, really.

Need it now!

First one might be a top 10 movie for me.

2 was pretty good and 3 was complete meh.

Hope this one reversed the trend

I don't know what y'all are talking about. I loved 3.

Haven't seen any of these

Because you're a terrible person? Just spit ballin' here…

Good trailer. Terrible cover song

Tickets went on sale today - at least for Alamo Drafthouse.

Got mine this morning for opening night.

Hope it's better than 3. Don't think we will ever capture the magic of #1 again.

where are we on the series about The Continental?

I enjoy all 3, but agree the first one is the best. The only thing that rubbed me the wrong way in the series is that Wick broke the rules of the Continental in part 2. In part one it's clearly explained that he is a man of patience, discipline, and sheer will. He should have gone after Santino outside of the hotel, then be pursued by the high table. It did setup everything in part 3 but I just thought that was a misstep in the plot that he wouldn't have done, he would have figured out a way to kill Santino another way. Part 2 I thought had the coolest locations and the scene with the sommelier is one of my favorite scenes in the series. I think that 3 has the best fights in the series. I'm just happy we're getting another one.

Surprise screening at SXSW today, reactions super exciting

‘John Wick 4’ Surprise Screening Reactions: “Greatest Action Sequences I’ve Ever Seen” https://t.co/Kj8q5g3E1x

‘#JohnWick: CHAPTER 4’ is the best movie of the franchise.

The film is more violent, with more action, and with much more emotion, it elevates the franchise to a level that feels impossible to surpass. And Stay for the credits in this one! #SXSW #SXSW2023 pic.twitter.com/4xeYSmzT8J

This series does not miss.

It's in the conversation for best action series of all time in my opinion.

Username does NOT check out.

Maybe I need to rewatch number 3 but I wouldn't exactly say it was a hit.

The box office and reviews would disagree.

As a person who may quite honestly put #1 in his current top 10 favorite movies, number 3 just got stale real fast. Particularly all the parts with Berry in it.

I'm not saying it's the best in the series, or that you even have to like it, but there's just no way it can be called a "miss", by any metric.

The last act of 3 was top tier
