    John Wick (film) - Keanu kicking butt again!

    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Wow, saw it tonight. Loved it, very action packed. I don't want to spoil it, but they do say in the trailer that the hell he unleashes is all due to some douche killing his sweet little pup, given to him by his recently deceased wife. He must've really bonded with that doggie in a short time, because he thoroughly revenges the bejesus out of a butt ton of Russian mobsters over it. Great fight scenes, and the gun play he engages in is pretty top notch. I'm sure there's some stuff to nitpick, but I had a great time, and didn't even notice said time passing...
    Willem Dafoe also shines. Great cast in general. Ian McShane...
    I saw in the paper yesterday Keanu lamenting Hollywood's lack of love for him these days. He even said Bill and Ted 3 is having trouble getting money.
    Hope this brings him a little love and financial backing for B&T3!!!
    A+.

    4/5

    Keanu Reeves blasts back in a full-throttle action film that twists the conventions of the genre to exhilarating effect.

    Nicely shot, but rather empty action flick. This ain't no Taken that's for sure!
