Summary
John Wick finds a way to conquer the High Table. But before he can find his freedom, Wick must face a new enemy with powerful alliances and forces from around the world turning old friends into enemies.
The first line of dialogue in John Wick: Chapter 4 is simple and straightforward: "The accursed king has returned." After watching the film, it's safe to say that director Chad Stahelski is the current king of directing.
Yes, there are variations on the same gun fu martial art (most thugs in heavy armor) that are just as interesting if not more interesting than before. The sprawling fight scene is set in shimmering glass filaments that serve as a creative platform for Keanu Reeves' John Wick (you'll feel your body fall with him during each incredibly executed and terrifying action sequence). A deadly combination of nunchucks and pistols.
As the blind assassin Donion, a former friend of John Wick who now stumbles upon his ruthless duties of the high table (the faces that run this complex team, and the faces that can be replaced at a moment's notice before the corpse goes cold) the Marquis de Gramont (a wonderfully var' Bill Skarsgård's brooding and tragically arrogant) and creates another refreshing dynamic to contend with.
Cain's dilemma is one of John Wick: Secret Weapon's problems in Chapter 4, as he doesn't want to kill the master assassin who has recently become a thorn in his side, but he will do whatever it takes to protect his young daughter. . . Like John Wick, Cain longs for freedom and protection, effectively acting as a mirror for the hero, the main difference being that he is still alive, having to live, die and kill.
Series newcomers Shay Hutton and Michael Finch's story (based on characters created by Derek Kolstad) is smart enough not to waste nearly three hours of rambling narrative. The two were once best friends as they prepared to become a part of this lifestyle, and it shows in their character-driven interactions. They are few, but they are important and important
It's likely that John Wick isn't the only one who escaped the cruel jaws of the high table. This means that the film is able to explore the dynamics of friendship that are not represented in the markers (with blood tokens provided for the answer). Earlier, John Wick visited the Osaka Continental Hotel, run by Hiroyuki Sanada Shimazu, another past life friend who can help. Unsurprisingly, violence breaks out, paving the way for her daughter Akira to join the fray, and Rina Sawayama immediately announces herself as a sensational action star.
John Wick is confronted by an assassin played by Shamier Anderson, who offers another tracking service for Marcus to break free from the group. He is accompanied by what he calls an emotional support dog, who follows the action with violence and humor. Ian McShane returns as Winston, the manager of New York's Continental Hotel.
There's a complex friendship dynamic here with many characters wanting to do something good or something terrible. John Wick: Season 4 has the best antagonists of the four films to date; As in the previous installments, the villains are big and bold, but this time there's the depth of a classic spaghetti western (with a classic soundtrack by Tyler Betts and Joel J. Richards) for an emotional climax. Besides this style electronic beats and emotional music).
If you're reading this and thinking that director Chad Stahelski is ambitious and decided to cram a three-hour movie into one hour of unnecessary characters and narrative, stop thinking that. John Wick: Chapter 4 goes from one crazy, incredibly choreographed action sequence to the next, and it gets weirdly tighter. It seems like everyone here has been stabbed, shot, or put in danger more often than necessary, but it's better to be safe than to let people die. As mentioned, it's more or less the same, at the same level of quality and with a bigger feature list than what came before.
But nothing in the world can surpass anyone as imaginative, inspiring, harrowing and utterly terrifying as John Wick: The End Times: Season 4 . This level of involvement goes beyond caring about the characters and exciting storyline moments where John Wick's obstacles are revealed.
Without giving too much away, there's everything from cars (not as many as you'd think), top-down video game psychic guns, and a cliffhanger that says Rocky Balboa will, “This is fun. Amazing physics from every member of the cast, and John Wick is better than the last entry in the best modern American action movie.” It continues to be a program.
