[@DavidGowers]

John cut off his wedding ring finger because The One Who Sits Above The Table told him "cast aside your weakness". His wife is his one weakness. Cut off the finger, can't wear the ring, therefore she's been symbolically cast off. As for the two Indonesian (not Japanese) guys that kept "letting him go", I feel like the point of that sequence was that they had such high respect for him that they wanted to keep the fight going as long as they could. I felt like they wanted to wear him down or be worn down themselves, and that neither wanted to get a questionable victory over the other, they wanted a clear and decisive victory. It came across, to me, as the ultimate show of respect. Then there was the whole aspect of Zero wanting to kill John and those guys knowing that, which probably also played a big part in not wanting a questionable victory.

[@rainwardell30]

For sure, John was fighting for weeks, bullets and stab wounds all over his body. Not to mention he never pick up a weapon for 5 years. Its totally fair for them to respect John in such a high regard. Love this movie so much

[@Brooklyn_Bleek]

It could've been a vague nod to his character of Mad Dog from The Raid and how he was obsessed with prolonging bare-handed fights. The ending nod and "the character" saying, "be seeing you" seemed like a nod of acknowleddgement towards them and what they're going to accomplish in the industry. *The Raid series was big around the time this movie came out.*

The two martial artists that John fights near the end and spears are from an Indonesian movie called The Raid, the reason he spears them is because the John Wick movies are heavily inspired by The Raid movies and the director said it was an honor to work with them

[@meadmaker4525]

[@lonewander6772]

But Kristin is right, it ruins the whole John Wick is a badass theme when he gets his ass kicked and should have died, but due to outside factors not story based he was spared. There were better ways to honor the Raid actors without turning them into idiots who defies the entire point of what they were trying to do which is to kill John Wick.

[@ComandoPadentro]

@@lonewander6772 But didn't Zero wanted to kill him himself? I think their job was to tire him enough without killing him... And John knew that and let them live as well.

[@davidreynolds9857]

​@@ComandoPadentrothat wouldn't explain why John killed every other assassin. I think John spared them simply in return for the mercy they showed him when they had him down

[@lonewander6772]

@@ComandoPadentro I would believe that more, which they "tried" to convey through words, if the actions of the assassins on Zero's team outside of the Raid guys didn't contradict it. They literally swung a blade at John's face and one of them thusted a blade at John's throat. If he didn't counter them he'd be dead and Zero would get no fight with John. It started off fine when they went hand to hand until the guy pulled out his nodachi.

[@timcarder2170]

You two should watch the videos of Halley Berry going through the same *"John Wick Training"* that Keanu went through...(which was her stipulation to saying yes to the role. She wanted to earn it) The martial arts training..and choreography. The weapons training (there's even some of her and Keanu doing the shooting course at same time) And if course, her training with the dogs.😊

[@patrickevans9604]

Those videos from Taran tactical were freaking awesome lol. Halle wanted to be just as good as Keanu at the practical skills needed for the movie and I think she deserves that respect

[@for_the_lore5567]

The reason the Shinobi at the end didn't kill Wick when they had the opportunity was because their leader, Zero, wanted the honor for himself. He made it very clear when he met John in Grand Central Station.

[@artcast007]

exactly 👏 thats another reason why they yielded in the end to John Wick. it was a sign of respect and not only that it was more of a sparring session with them

[@lonewander6772]

I get it, but in my mind the John Wick series isn’t even comparable to F&F. John Wick is superior in almost every way to me. And so, it deserves to be looked at more and if that means some people won’t understand, or disagree…well that’s what art is all about. In sports terms, it’s like comparing LeBron James to Brian Scalabrine (just google him lol). Because you are better, you will be more scrutinized! I look at it as a badge of honor for the John Wick series! Sorry the for novel, I just love John Wick 😂

[@battleaxe8252]

@Dmusky yea I agree with you but I'm speaking on how Ole girl has zero critiques for the fast and furious but turns around and says John Wick 2 was lazy and incomplete..lol to me that's a ridiculous thing to say.🤷‍♂️

[@candromiguel5904]

That's because we know what the fast franchise is and we expect it to be just that. But JW3 went hard with the world building and expansion and then a couple of choices at the last fights just went sideways that's all.

[@battleaxe8252]

@candromiguel5904 My issue is the dismissal of John Wick 2. How can you criticize that film and praise the fast and the furious franchise. All this Kristin chick does is praise the character of Dominic Terreto yet she had all that unnecessary smoke for John Wick 2.

[@edm240b9]

The revolver scene is a homage to “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly”, but it also has some real life merit to it as well. Wick is in a museum. Most (not all) museums will usually display dummy or deactivated firearms because they are cheaper to acquire than the real thing. The revolver he picked up had the cylinder plugged, which is why the round didn’t go in. He also put a new barrel on there because it’s possible the barrel was plugged as well. There’s no universal standard to how a gun should be deactivated, they are all done in many different ways. So, in theory, if you had the correct parts available, you could assemble a fully functional firearm.

[@MonicaHolly143]

It wasnt plug, he change the barrel becuz the available bullet is to big thats why it didn't fit, not plug

[@noveldefender9815]

​@@MonicaHolly143There were several different sized bullets on the shelf, if it wasn't plugged he could have gone through the bullets till he found the right one. John Wick knows his guns and bullets and knew it was plugged, hence the reassembling scene.

Firstly, If Kristina didn't have full-on conversations during a reaction, she'd compute a little more. For example, in the end, when fighting the two gents who said it was an honor fighting Wick, she'd remember that the bald dude literally said only he gets to kill him, and those two fighting Wick were his students. They knew not to kill him; hence, when defeated in the end, they accepted being defeated by Wick. Reactions are one thing; full-on, entire, irrelevant conversations are another. I am sorry. I am beginning not to be able to complete reactions anymore with her. I don't mean to be rude. But I sometimes want to smack my head against the wall when her conversations begin instead of paying attention. BTW, Kristina is from Japan and claims to have learned martial arts. She should know "honor" when fighting someone. It is one of Japanese martial arts's most basic and fundamental understandings.

[@Stephanie-es7wv]

Thank you. Couldn't agree more. Her reactions are very frustrating.

[@noveldefender9815]

Even then this left me still confused. If they can't kill why are they wielding knives. If they want to fight him honorably then go at him one at a time. They are making sure they always have the upper hand. They were being bullies pretending to be honorable. Do not get me started on bald man. He has no sense of honor. Klingons would banish him from the empire for his ignorance of the word.

[@nascreates3392]

Killing the adjudicator would've been an epic fail. As you know, there is a hierarchy and everyone has their place. Winston knows the game better than ANYONE. He knew the parlay would be inevitable. Gotta accept the lore, rules, and the consequences.

[@noveldefender9815]

Lol what lore?

[@nascreates3392]

@noveldefender9815 The lore of the John Wick universe (body of traditions and knowledge on a subject or held by a particular group, typically passed from person to person by word of mouth). It may be written somewhere, but the audience is told the traditions and given more knowledge about it through the characters and as the story progresses.

[@noveldefender9815]

@@nascreates3392 The lore of John Wick is not the worst but definitely not the best. Especially when you compare it to other lore heavy stories like James Bond, Halo, Warhammer 40k, Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, etc. Compared to stories that have lore written down to be examined (lore is a readable doctrine). John Wick is very loose and bare.

[@bryanwilson4386]

In the Continental TV series, they hinted that John Wick was the son of Winston's brother. Never confirmed and likely never will be, since there will be no second series of the Continental, but I think this explains Winston's and Charon's interest in John better than mere friendship.

[@thedarkknight2221]

This was the first movie I saw in a theater that *LITERALLY* left me exhausted! I actually struggled to leave the theater because my legs were shaking from the adrenaline throughout the movie.🤣🤣🤣 Not only is Keanu amazing but the rest of the cast is freaking phenomenal. Halle Berry in her most badass role she has ever done, (the sadly late great) Lance Reddick bringing the perfectly polite badass Charon, Laurence Fishburn showing he can not just command not just a room but ALL of NYC with his powerful canon of a voice. And IMO the man who truly stands on par with Keanu Reeves, the incredibly underrated Mark Dacascos as the main assassin Zero. Mark is in real life an extremely high level martial artist. His father founded his own style of martial arts which he taught Mark, and he has studied Muay Thai and capoeira! And on top of all of that, he’s also The Chairman on Iron Chef!

[@VeryFastRodi]

Love how Michael is SUPER confident in the scene where they are training "That is Judo, i know my stuff" 😂 Sorry to correct you my good sir, but what they were doing was: Sambo. Basically the Russian version of MMA, it does have a bit more focus on throws and takedowns hence why they wear only the Judo Gi top with wrestling shoes.

[@Gr33nMamba]

The two that don't kill John when they have the chance are The Shinobi, well they fight with honour, they seek and enjoy a fair fight. It's almost a code to not attack an opponent at a disadvantage, at least one they respect anyway. There was also the clear instruction from Zero that John was to die by his sword alone. I'm surprised you didn't show much from the Halle Berry fight scenes.

[@Draugo]

Fun fact: In the weapons museum fight none of the cabinets have glass windows. Every piece of glass in that scene is CG

[@dejavu2030]

Each movie in the franchise outdoes the previous so.. John wick 4 is somehow the best, idk any other franchise really that does that, successful like these so, but each one escalates in amazing and unique ways. And 4 is the masterpiece.

[@lonewander6772]

The first is still the best. 4 probably has the best action, if action escalation is what you consider how it progressively gets better with every sequel. The first however is best in terms of story telling and emotional impact mixed in with action and intruige. You really get a sense of John being the boogeyman in the first one, not so much the others since you start introducing other assassins on close to or similar levels to him like Zero and Cain.

[@noveldefender9815]

My personal rank is 3 1 4 2

[@dejavu2030]

@@lonewander6772 the first is good. But there are so many characters and villains to go, and locations when John goes international we truly see the scale and scope of who and what he was.

@@dejavu2030 No. It just ruined his "boogeyman" moniker. Instead of the assassin that can get anyone no matter what he became a one man army. From Hanzo Hattori to John Rambo mowing down a village of Vietcongs. Both cool, but for different reasons.

John really isnt at his best till the 4th one, you forget hes been retired for a long time, has been fighting here for what? Hours now? days? Weeks? Its hard so says really since he came out or retirment. Hes also been hurt repeatedly and went from one fight to next, they also go for realism so hes gotta be exhausted half the time no matter how commited oneself is hes still only human 😊. This series is so awsome tbh, thats why people love it, its so close to realistic as one gets. Other then some of Johns injuries in the later ones theyve kept the series pretty grounded in realism. 😂😂LOL as i wrote this winston betrayed john and your reaction was to much ROFLMAO 😂😂

After the second or third movie, I'm convinced that there are no 'regular' humans in the world of John Wick; they're all assassins and people involved in the industry.

[@matthewgrady3423]

-Chapter 3 was the first one I saw in the theater. It became my 2nd favorite of the series. - Ernest is indeed a basketball player. However, he’s also in commercials for Pepperidge Farm Goldfish. -Even after how many times I’ve seen this one, I still get as excited with the ending especially after the Bowery King says “But this High Table shit.” When I saw it the first time in the theater, my eyes got big and I thought,”Wait……” As he kept talking, I was thinking “No way!” As soon as John gives him the “Yeah”, my brain exploded. I still get that emotion every time. -As for Chapter Four, I can’t say anything that will risk spoiling anything. A number of surprises. There’s one particular scene that is unbelievable but there’s an element to it that makes it better. You have to go back and watch Chapter One multiple times because I’ve not seen a reactor notice it. - For “The Director”(Anjelica Huston), she will be back but I won’t say anything more. -They will continue with the issue of dogs in Chapter 4. -With the talk about Chapters One and Two, I think it’s more about Chapters Two and Three. Chapter One seems like it was initially a one and done because they weren’t sure if the movie would do the business that it did. Meanwhile, 2 and 3 just flow together. -When I heard Michael use the phrase “Overkill is underrated”, my 1st thought was “The A-Team” movie.

I'm pissed that you neither showed nor reacted to Halle Berry & her 2 Belgian Malinois' performance. That might be the best fight scene of all times. She worked tirelessly with both the stunt coordinator & the dog trainers for months. She even sustained a couple of cracked ribs during her training. There is an outstanding video of Halle's fight prep & at the firing range. She & Keanu Reeves have become proficient marksmen. Keanu Reeves' ability to speed loan his shotgun in both Chapters 2 & 3 is impressive. You missed the mark. Every other reactor showed the fight scene so you can't blame You Tube.

The "sushi guy" is Mark Dacascos. He starred in a lot of martial arts movies, especially during the nineties. I REALLY recommend "DRIVE" which he starred in and Kadeem Hardison (a different world) was his co-star. It also had a random guest appearance from Brittany Murphy, early in her career. It's a mash-up sci-fi, martial arts, action, buddy travel film. It's well worth a watch and definitely deserves more attention, plus it stars a young Mark Dacascos doing stunts and fight scenes. Enjoy!

You're missing whole realm of the Asian fighters having respect and they fight with honor. And John wick also fights with honor. This would be a first for me one commented so much and disagree with your critique and breakdown of John wick 2 and John 3 John wick 4 phenomenal

[@lonewander6772]

I don't know about honor with Wick. He's an assassin. Assassins don't fight with honor. That is the entire point of an assassin hence the whole situation between the samurai and shinobi. I doubt John blasting a guy in the face with a point blank shotgun slug round as he turned a corner like John was camping the whole time in HALO 2 is considered honorable.
