@@TheSpecialPlumsEveryoneKnows yeah but if the two were in the same universe, I imagine Agent 47 would look under his bed for John Wick before he goes to sleep
There’s almost a little hope in Arelia‘s voice when he says“ did you kill him?“ It’s not that he wanted John dead but it would’ve been preferable than awaiting his wrath
I don't think Aurelio fears John's wrath. He knows he is clean. The "did you kill him" is just finding out if the storm is approaching, he's safe either way
Aurelio knows that it’s likely that John’s past would have likely caught up to him regardless of whether or not he had gotten out of the life. Most of the time it’s usually not IF someone with his reputation is targeted but rather WHEN. That said, even despite the fact that John got out of the criminal underworld, while some people would love to have the reputation of killing such an infamous hitman, his reputation would leave the cautious or the well informed to hesitate. Only the ignorant, the insane, the suicidal or the stupid would dare cross John Wick, and the lucky ones or the compliant are those who survive.
That “oh” is very loaded with meaning. On one hand he’s saying it as in “oh I completely understand your reason for punching him” and on the other he’s also saying “oh fuck my idiot son has just poked the most ferocious hell raising bear”
If memory serves, in all the John Wick movies, whenever someone hears his name, all they can say is “oh”. Even Viggo responds that way - even Iosef, who then has to hear exactly who John Wick is and what he’s capable of. Even Iosef, who evidently didn’t know the details, apparently knew enough, when he heard that the car he stole belonged to John Wick, to realize that he was well and truly fucked.
John Wick is one of those movies where it could’ve been one and done and been fine. It didn’t need sequels but I’m glad they got made because they didn’t disappoint.
It really is special. A typical revenge movie would have just had the Russian mobsters kill John's wife to motivate his killing spree but making it about them interrupting his grieving process so John can now take his rage out on a human opponent instead of the disease he couldn't fight and felt completely helpless against, elevates the story into something new and something we don't usually get in an action movie.
@@mrquirky3626 There's a video on YT (linked below) that makes another point - that while John is clearly the protagonist, he's built up like he's the antagonist. It has to be done in the right way, and the writers, directors, etc. NAILED it. th-cam.com/video/d03ad5H1MkU/w-d-xo.html
My Italian Father-in-law says he sold cars. One day he got his Cadillac stolen. He knew exactly where the chop shop was. He walks in with his keys, finds his Caddy, drives out and no one said a thing to him. Makes me wonder who he sold cars for.
“So what do we do now?” “We’re going to give it a good wash, a nice detailing job, offer him some coffee and donuts when he comes calling in the morning, point him in the direction of his ride, and tell him to have a nice day. And you’re going to memorize that license plate so you and your crew never nick it again, ya morons.”
I love that even though Aurelio knows John and they're on friendly terms the fact his car was brought here at all inspires fear, John Wick has such a legendary status that he has to be appeased like some kind of spirit, Aurelio waits with an offering ready to hold off his wrath
I just noticed wicks respect level...not only does the whole shop look at him when he walks in but he actually gets personally dropped off at the shop by a bus.
It seems almost everyone in the underworld in that area knows that John Wick lives there. The police know him too. And they understand that if you treat him with respect he'll do the same and leave you alone. If you don't you probably won't live long. All except one spoiled punk and his little posse.
You can see aurelios thought process on his face "Hey thats a nice car" "Wait, that car looks familiar" "Oh crap, i know that car" "Holy sht, that is John wicks car"
John L is a solid actor, for sure. The nuance in his performance in this scene is one layer out of many used to gradually reveal John Wick's character to the audience. The reaction on his face is more effective than a bunch of words. And it's all of these little details that make John Wick so much better than the typical action movie.
@@jfarrar19This is basically it, one thing I noticed throughout the films was that Wick has respect for human life, he doesn’t claim lives Willy Nilly, once he notices his opponents are expiring he pulls back a bit. It’s like he’s giving his opponents a choice, do you want to live or die? If you stop fighting me right now, you will live, but if you keep fighting? You will die.
@@ssd3904 John explicitly did and said just that in #2, with Cassian and the Bowery King. He doesn't kill without reason, and shows mercy when he practically can. He's unfailingly polite and respectful with everyone he deals with. He remembers everyone in this sub-culture by name, from bosses to bodyguards. I understand why they all seem to genuinely like him.
@ 2:16 “You don’t own me punk. I work w/ your father.” A subtle way to let us know Aurelio is a man with his own empire. I’d like to see a spinoff focusing on Aurelio and his shop. A la Gone in 60 Seconds or Fast & Furious.
That kid clearly had no idea how the world worked. Ignoring the fact that his stupidity got his father's ENTIRE organization destroyed, he was so insufferably arrogant that he walked up to a boss in his own shop and started acting like he was tough shit. Like... kid, if ANY of you so much as scratched Aurelio, you wouldn't be walking out of that place
Him seriously saying “we own you” to Aurelio is almost laughable cuz he thought that would intimidate him but Aurelio knows damn well that spoiled arrogant lil brat doesn’t own shit his father does and he’ll be damned if he’s gonna be ordered or intimidated by a child like him!
I liked that Aurelio's interaction with Viggo was different, though. Yes - Aurelio is totally a man with his own empire, but he recognizes that Viggo's reach/empire is a notch above his...and Wick, on his own, has an even greater reach than both of them. It's a short pair of scenes that quickly sets up several things: Aurelio's got his own business, Aurelio's got balls of steel, but best of all...Aurelio's sharper and carries more wisdom than almost anyone else in the movie - seeing the bigger picture in seconds and adapting just as quickly.
@@Cukito4 Idk, maybe NO ONE in particular, lol. But I just wanted to give props because I feel like people (such as MYSELF) have talked SHIT about John Leguizamo IN THE PAST, but he’s ACTUALLY QUITE GOOD here. 👍
Iosef was in the wrong to mess with John Wick and laughed at what he did since he believed he was a nobody, but he wasn't laughing when he got punched by Aurelio, scolded by Viggo, and killed by John Wick.
@@danieldickson8591 because people knew of him and respected who he was. Aurelio even didn’t hesitate to answer John and tell him what he needed to know even loan him a car. That’s why I liked Aurelio glad he never got offed in any way
I love how all the guys in the shop watch him as he approaches Aurelio in obvious fear. They probably knew they were safe, but his mere presence was enough to cause them concern.
I’m honestly convinced that Aurelio is one of the few people who have seen the Monster that John Wick is. Hence the reason he’s more scared of John than Joseph.
I think it fairer to say he's one of the few people to have seen the monster, and lived. Many, many others saw the monster, but it was the last thing they ever saw. Iosef obviously didn't know John and had never heard of him. And Iosef had never stared Death in the face, until he looked into John Wick's eyes that night at the Red Circle.
And this is when you start to realize that there is something off. You probably expected John to do something. But seeing Aurelio punch the punk and pour John a drink while talking respectfully to him, you start to realize we don’t know anything about John.
Aurelio's reaction to Iosef having John's car is the first hint that he's more than he seemed. This carries it a little further. But it's Viggo's reaction, his anger and fear, that really tells us Iosef f_cked with the wrong man.
@@danieldickson8591 The speech Viggo gives Iosef about just who John Wick is that is something that is normally done in movies to introduce the villian and show how dangerous they are.
What I like about this scene is the intentional framing. When John shows up to the shop, Aurelio has a stool pulled up and some nice whiskey ready. John sits with him - he doesn't remain standing. It shows Aurelio isn't just a business contact to him. This isn't him interrogating Aurelio - he legitimately just wanted to know if Aurelio had lied to the kid to get him to leave the car there. It would have been as simple as John just driving out of there. But Aurelio chose loyalty over cleverness. He would rather turn Iosef away, sock him in the mouth, and risk getting in trouble on the spot. He could have lied. He could have called Viggo and told him what Iosef did. But he didn't. Not out of fear - out of respect for a friend. Respect for a legend.
True enough, although I imagine that if Aurelio had done that, John would have his car back, but would then go after Iosef anyway. The theft of the car and the killing of the dog would not be fixed by the return of the car, not to mention the insult to John of the theft and killing. Iosef was a dead man the minute he walked into John’s house with theft on his mind. There are some things that you just don’t do.
@davidzasloff8797 I don't think the car was as important to John as the dog was. The car was just the final insult. If Aurelio had placated the kid to get him to leave the car, then turned it over to John when he showed up, it wouldn't have changed anything other than John getting his car back.
Apparently the guy who played Joesf's younger henchman cried after they did the scene where the puppy died and spent some time just playing with the puppy.
And this despite the fact that John had only had that dog for a few days. There are some things that you just don’t do, as the song says - you don’t interfere with the last gift that a dead woman gave to her husband, and you don’t kill a guy’s dog. Period.
The incredible thing about the John Wick series is that it remains consistent throughout 1-4. The darkness, professional, calculated, and attention to detail is the same with all movies. It doesn’t change tone with humor, gore, action, etc. It’s just a masterpiece throughout. My favorite action series of all time. The attention to detail is just incredible.
Idk, JW4 was pretty silly imo, the magic suits that deflect bullets were a bit too over the top, to the point where I was thinking what's the point of using a gun if they're all just using their magic suits to block the shots? You can only suspend your disbelief for so long watching a film.
@@Binxalot I concur. The first movie at least nodded toward reality. John was a tank for absorbing damage, but things that should have injured him a lot still did. The succeeding movies get increasingly ridiculous, as John is repeatedly shot and stabbed, run into by cars, and falls off buildings, and not only survives but gets back up and keeps fighting. #4 might as well be a Loony Toons cartoon.
@@BinxalotWell I don't know about magic and stopping every bullet, it might've been unrealistic durability for armor of that weight but the fact it's acknowledged the shots still hurt quite a lot tells me the *energy* from the bullets still isn't being stopped completely The reason to use guns even if Wick has that suit on is that the velocity is likely still enough to be cracking bones, leaving nasty bruises at the very least. If he sustained heavy fire without killing whoever was attacking him quickly the armor would probably break pretty fast, and it would probably cause internal bleeding before it even got to that point
@@phantomdance When in Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan, William Shatner as Adm. Kirk said famously, "KHAAAAN!", Viggo one ups that with a two letter, one syllable utterance. "Oh." So powerful, yet subtle. Externally calm, internally furious.
@@ParkysPlace Oh, my son has done the stupidest thing possible, and his life is now forfeit. Oh my criminal empire is about to be destroyed Oh my life is in jeopardy and I may not survive this experience.

When this came out a coworker went to see it and told me he didn't understand John's motivation. I just assumed he was a sociopath, because you'd have to be pretty inhuman and soulless to not understand.
It's a spin on a pretty classic trope. Instead of a retired action hero being pulled back into the life by the death of his wife/girlfriend, he loses his dog. Somehow it feels more vitriolic.
@@Harry-cm2io So he wouldn't be alone - and would stay human. I don't recall if she actually knew what her husband did before he retired, but you don't get married to a man like that and live with him without seeing that there's some serious darkness under the skin. She knew she was the one who got him out of whatever it was he used to do, and wanted to give him something to keep him out. And it was working until Josef f***ed it up.
The best nuance in this scene is Aurelio pouring John a drink, but John doesn't drink it until he hears Aurelio's story. Drinking it signifying he accepts Aurelio's non-participation in all that had happened.
John Wick should be taught in storywriting classes. This movie tells so much without giving away so little. John's car is essentially a plot device to bring us to Aurelio's garage where we get indirect characterization for John from Aurelio by the secondary antagonist of the story, just amping up how much he's messed up and how important Aurelio knows that car is.
Dont get me wrong, its a great movie but its hardly some story writing masterpiece. The whole movie people do nonsensical shit just to advance the plot and/or to facilitate an action scene. Like, just the idea that Josef doesnt know who John Wick is stretches belief. We are constantly told what a legend Wick is and Literally everyone (even the random ass bouncer at the club lol) knows who John is but the son of Viggo doesnt? Shit, John had only been retired for a few years at this point. Josef would have in his late teens/early 20s when John was working for his dad. But he never saw him even one time despite him being responsible for Viggos whole empire?😂 He only doesnt know who John is because it suits the story. It really makes no logical sense.
I mean Josef not knowing isn't too surprising, the guy was kind of a moron even before killing Wick's dog and stealing his car. John Wick was an assassin so he wouldn't be seen much and why would he be going over to Viggo's place often I bet most of their talk was through telephones and Viggo telling Wick to kill some target. Josef looks like he's early 20's so he would know little about how all the things work under the table compared to someone like Viggo. Old man bouncer knowing who Wick is makes logical sense since he's been around for decades most likely based on his facial features and hair color and maybe he worked with him in the past at some point hence the offer from Wick for him to take the night off so he doesn't have to kill him.
There are two types of people. The ones you know how those world works . And the ones who are too stupid to see the picture. Aurelio knew what he was doing. Vigo son is just to stupid
Well it is serviced there, in the 2nd movie when he finally gets the car back and it suffers extensive damage he calls up Aurelio to fix it. Aurelio tells him it will take years because the entire car is basically destroyed from all the gunfire and such, but he'll do it because John really likes his car.
Talking about interesting details, it is worth to mention that among the different liquors Aurelio has (left side @ 1:23 ), he specifically serves a tequila named 'Peligroso' (Spanish for 'Dangerous') @ 1:38
This is how you make a character of myth. All that Aurelio needed to see was the car. Out of all the high end vehicles in his shop, John’s is the one that caused the most emotion. The scene where Viggo is explaining to his son who John is, and the phone call with John….just peak character building.
This movie was paced out really good from action to down time with world build and back and forth. Same with the 2nd movie. However 3rd and fourth just seem to be all action and doesn't allow us to have that slow time to process it all.
@@dvs620 “Well, we figured the first three movies almost happened in like a week, week and a half, somewhere in there. That's my version, I think Keanu’s is a little different, and I think this (JW 4) is like six months later. So within a year, I think it all happens. I would say almost within 7 to 8 months.” -Chad Stahelski So JW 1-3 time span around a week and a half JW 4 is like 6-7 months after JW 3
One thing I appreciate is that John could have killed Aurelio erroneously thinking he was involved with Viggo's Son's actions, but he meets with him, asks his story, and is calm the entire time. It really sells that while John is a deadly, *_horrifyingly dangerous man,_* he's also got a very strong sense of reason and frienship. Aurelio wanted none of John's smoke, and John respected that. Says a lot about both characters.
My GOD, I love the concern in Aurelio's voice when he says, "Where'd you get that car?" It's like he's got aids or cancer in his garage and wants it out of there as soon as possible.
He may not have had alot of opportunities to show off what exactly he is capable of, but John Leguizamo is a fucking phenomenal actor. I have enjoyed everything he has portrayed way back to Spawn, he's just too good.
If you haven't seen him as Tybalt in Baz Luhrman's 1996 Romeo + Juliet, I highly recommend it. It is a phenomenal film, and Leguizamo's portrayal is absolutely execellent.
This is what bothers me SO much about the sequels... its an entire world living in sync with ours, and unless you're a part of it you'll never know... but the sequels have litterally THOUSANDS of assassins coming out of the woodwork, in that city alone... it was stupifying... let alone 200 people slaughtered in the airport alone and not a peep from law enforcement
Yeah that's a popular critique that I agree with too so my only head canon solution is that the amount of money that has to be floating around that ecosphere can just simply make anything go away. Everyone has a price.
Viggo would understand the reason why Aurelio punched Iosef in the first place. Victor was wrong to believe that Viggo was not going to like Aurelio punching Iosef. That was not the part he won’t like, instead Iosef messing with John Wick was the part Viggo was not going to like.
I love how much you can see Arelleo lose his cool before hitting vego's son because there like the very serious face when he asks if they killed him and then very quickly is like "you stupid piece of shit you probably just got me killed as collateral"
@@andyk446 Iosef was not trying to sell the car, he wanted it cleaned so he could keep it. So Aurelio would have had to steal it from him, kill him etc to get the car. And that is probably a level of escalation he does not want to deal with given who his father is.
@Ahglock he wouldnt need to kill him, just take the car from him. Given how Iosef's father reacted to why Aurelio slapped Iosef, pretty sure he would have been ok with it too.
You don't get it. Any interference or action towards what happened would look bad or be bad. He wants no part, plus he can't keep Losef there, he's the son of one the biggest crime lords of the city. There's no rational thing he could have done
First thing he does. Before opening his mouth. He offers John 'peace'. We know this after watching the second movie. I dont know if that piece of the lore was done before the first movie or added after the second. But we all know now, Aurelio offered John peace. John Accept the peace after the explanation, and only then. Then he ask for the car and Aurelio is obliged to give it. Details.
The cool thing about this movie is they did an inverse of the save the cat trope to establish not only motivation for John but it provides a twisted form of justification for his actions. Its a beautiful piece of writing.
Keanu's monologue in the warehouse after Viggo's goons catch him, really clarifies what the killing of that dog meant to him, so we finally fully understand why he's doing this. That was the most intense and passionate performance I've ever seen from Reeves.
@kuromori6200 that makes no sense. John is obviously his good friend. He could have just told him I knew this was your car so I kept it for you. He would t have had to go through all the trouble of getting it back.
I love how once they pull the gun on Aurelio all of his mechanics stop what they are doing and are ready to use whatever they have in their hands to back up their boss that’s some respect 🫡
I like how John's reply is step by step when Aurelio asked John, what are you going to do. John gently finished his drinks,gently setting it down, then simply said "I need a ride". Shows how much mental capacity he has under such intense traumatizing events. Takes us some time to go through emotional stages. Not John Wick,on what he is about to carry out with emotional tranquility...
Aurelio was the smartest dude in the movie. More afraid of John than Viggo. Even Viggo gave him a pass when he found out about what his son did.
I remember on a different video, someone commented that Viggo knows Aurelio wasn't dumb, and there was a good reason why Aurelio punched Iosef in the first place.

That “oh” is very loaded with meaning. On one hand he’s saying it as in “oh I completely understand your reason for punching him” and on the other he’s also saying “oh fuck my idiot son has just poked the most ferocious hell raising bear”
Right there he knew his son fucked up
If memory serves, in all the John Wick movies, whenever someone hears his name, all they can say is “oh”. Even Viggo responds that way - even Iosef, who then has to hear exactly who John Wick is and what he’s capable of. Even Iosef, who evidently didn’t know the details, apparently knew enough, when he heard that the car he stole belonged to John Wick, to realize that he was well and truly fucked.
The first John Wick movie is still unmatched, such a great film
It started it all
John Wick is one of those movies where it could’ve been one and done and been fine. It didn’t need sequels but I’m glad they got made because they didn’t disappoint.
It really is special. A typical revenge movie would have just had the Russian mobsters kill John's wife to motivate his killing spree but making it about them interrupting his grieving process so John can now take his rage out on a human opponent instead of the disease he couldn't fight and felt completely helpless against, elevates the story into something new and something we don't usually get in an action movie.
@@mrquirky3626 There's a video on YT (linked below) that makes another point - that while John is clearly the protagonist, he's built up like he's the antagonist. It has to be done in the right way, and the writers, directors, etc. NAILED it.

I once watched it three times back to back. I was blazed and utterly bored so that had a lot to do with it. But I did that with predator as well
My Italian Father-in-law says he sold cars. One day he got his Cadillac stolen. He knew exactly where the chop shop was. He walks in with his keys, finds his Caddy, drives out and no one said a thing to him. Makes me wonder who he sold cars for.
I think it's one of those don't ask don't tell questions
“So what do we do now?”
“We’re going to give it a good wash, a nice detailing job, offer him some coffee and donuts when he comes calling in the morning, point him in the direction of his ride, and tell him to have a nice day. And you’re going to memorize that license plate so you and your crew never nick it again, ya morons.”
Prob best not to mess with your Italian father in law!
Probably some guys of the wise variety

"The dog..."
Always liked that all the workers in the shop turned their heads when John walked in, they knew exactly who he is.
And also how when they look like they're ready to throw down when Iosef's boys pulled a gun on Aurelio.
They all slowed and looked like they saw Death himself 😅
@@PHY51C15T A pretty close approximation of Death.
“Death’s Emissary “ Gianna Santino
I love that even though Aurelio knows John and they're on friendly terms the fact his car was brought here at all inspires fear, John Wick has such a legendary status that he has to be appeased like some kind of spirit, Aurelio waits with an offering ready to hold off his wrath
I just noticed wicks respect level...not only does the whole shop look at him when he walks in but he actually gets personally dropped off at the shop by a bus.
It seems almost everyone in the underworld in that area knows that John Wick lives there. The police know him too. And they understand that if you treat him with respect he'll do the same and leave you alone. If you don't you probably won't live long. All except one spoiled punk and his little posse.
Yeah, thieves respecting a better thief. You really like that?
@@dougamundson6836come on I want to see you doing what John does 😂
@@marlamorales8298 Sooooo, because I am not a Master Assasin, my opinion doesn't matter? Really?
@@marlamorales8298don't worry about that chick she's on every post saying nonsense 😂
You can see aurelios thought process on his face
"Hey thats a nice car"
"Wait, that car looks familiar"
"Oh crap, i know that car"
"Holy sht, that is John wicks car"
John L is a solid actor, for sure. The nuance in his performance in this scene is one layer out of many used to gradually reveal John Wick's character to the audience. The reaction on his face is more effective than a bunch of words. And it's all of these little details that make John Wick so much better than the typical action movie.
0:30 - 0:35
I really dug that Aurelio had a bottle and a glass waiting.
He knew John was coming.
Aurelio is probably the only man in all these movies who manages to encounter John Wick and live- and he does it with an extra glass and a free drink.
@@SamaritanPrime respect, cooperation, and politeness.
It's damn easy to survive him tbh.
@@jfarrar19This is basically it, one thing I noticed throughout the films was that Wick has respect for human life, he doesn’t claim lives Willy Nilly, once he notices his opponents are expiring he pulls back a bit. It’s like he’s giving his opponents a choice, do you want to live or die? If you stop fighting me right now, you will live, but if you keep fighting? You will die.
@@ssd3904 John explicitly did and said just that in #2, with Cassian and the Bowery King. He doesn't kill without reason, and shows mercy when he practically can. He's unfailingly polite and respectful with everyone he deals with. He remembers everyone in this sub-culture by name, from bosses to bodyguards. I understand why they all seem to genuinely like him.
@@SamaritanPrime nah, plenty survive him. Notably that bodyguard played by the wrestler. "Take the rest of the day off" "Thank you, Mr. Wick"
"Viggo is not going to like this"
"What do you know about what he likes or doesn't like? I'll tell you this... he's gonna understand."
Aurelio punching Iosef was not the part Viggo would not like; instead, Ioesf messing with John Wick was the part Viggo would not like.
I love how Aurelio had a glass out and waiting for Wick.
@ 2:16 “You don’t own me punk. I work w/ your father.” A subtle way to let us know Aurelio is a man with his own empire. I’d like to see a spinoff focusing on Aurelio and his shop. A la Gone in 60 Seconds or Fast & Furious.
That kid clearly had no idea how the world worked. Ignoring the fact that his stupidity got his father's ENTIRE organization destroyed, he was so insufferably arrogant that he walked up to a boss in his own shop and started acting like he was tough shit. Like... kid, if ANY of you so much as scratched Aurelio, you wouldn't be walking out of that place
Noooo, Not A la fast and furious. Its enough. They saturated us with that franchise. I prefer Gone in 60 secs.
Him seriously saying “we own you” to Aurelio is almost laughable cuz he thought that would intimidate him but Aurelio knows damn well that spoiled arrogant lil brat doesn’t own shit his father does and he’ll be damned if he’s gonna be ordered or intimidated by a child like him!
I liked that Aurelio's interaction with Viggo was different, though.
Yes - Aurelio is totally a man with his own empire, but he recognizes that Viggo's reach/empire is a notch above his...and Wick, on his own, has an even greater reach than both of them.
It's a short pair of scenes that quickly sets up several things:
Aurelio's got his own business, Aurelio's got balls of steel, but best of all...Aurelio's sharper and carries more wisdom than almost anyone else in the movie - seeing the bigger picture in seconds and adapting just as quickly.
Aurelio was about that action. Iosef was not the same…
I love that viggo called him pissed and the second he heard what happened he just went “aight time for me to go beat his ass too”
I’ve never been crazy about John Leguizamo but he’s ACTUALLY UNDERRATED in this movie.
Who is "underrating" him?
@@Cukito4
Idk, maybe NO ONE in particular, lol.
But I just wanted to give props because I feel like people (such as MYSELF) have talked SHIT about John Leguizamo IN THE PAST, but he’s ACTUALLY QUITE GOOD here. 👍
Carlito's Way🔥
@@anubys7540"Bemny Blanco" from the Bronx, great roll too.
His acting chops, stole the scene, in his shop.
The fact Aurelio punch viggos son. And I feel like he did that outta respect for John. He stole his car and killed the dog.
Iosef was in the wrong to mess with John Wick and laughed at what he did since he believed he was a nobody, but he wasn't laughing when he got punched by Aurelio, scolded by Viggo, and killed by John Wick.
I agree that one motivation was respect for John. The other was dread for how much hell John was going to rain down because of this little punk.
@@danieldickson8591 because people knew of him and respected who he was. Aurelio even didn’t hesitate to answer John and tell him what he needed to know even loan him a car. That’s why I liked Aurelio glad he never got offed in any way
This dude (Leguizamo) is such a damn underrated actor.
He looks at that car rolling into the shop like its a nuclear bomb with the timer almost up.
Too bad he is douchebag in real life.
I love how all the guys in the shop watch him as he approaches Aurelio in obvious fear. They probably knew they were safe, but his mere presence was enough to cause them concern.
I don't think it was fear for themselves. More like thinking, "Oh shit, he's here. It's about to rain fire."
I’m honestly convinced that Aurelio is one of the few people who have seen the Monster that John Wick is. Hence the reason he’s more scared of John than Joseph.
I think it fairer to say he's one of the few people to have seen the monster, and lived. Many, many others saw the monster, but it was the last thing they ever saw. Iosef obviously didn't know John and had never heard of him. And Iosef had never stared Death in the face, until he looked into John Wick's eyes that night at the Red Circle.
And this is when you start to realize that there is something off. You probably expected John to do something. But seeing Aurelio punch the punk and pour John a drink while talking respectfully to him, you start to realize we don’t know anything about John.
Aurelio's reaction to Iosef having John's car is the first hint that he's more than he seemed. This carries it a little further. But it's Viggo's reaction, his anger and fear, that really tells us Iosef f_cked with the wrong man.
@@danieldickson8591 The speech Viggo gives Iosef about just who John Wick is that is something that is normally done in movies to introduce the villian and show how dangerous they are.
“I effed up his dog!”
Doctor: “I diagnose you with dead.”
“But I’m very much alive!”
“Not for much longer. I give you about three days, tops.”
"Take two of these before you see John Wick again. You'll bleed, and die, but it won't hurt as much."
The doctor is John Wick in disguise
"I sure as hell fucked up his dog!"
It was at this moment, Aurelio knew Iosef had fucked up HARD.
i thought everyone was just trying to call the actor a loser but i guess the characters name is losef 😂😂
HARD is when Iosef came in with John Wick's car
IRREPARABLY is when Iosef admitted to Aurelio to killing his dog.
What I like about this scene is the intentional framing. When John shows up to the shop, Aurelio has a stool pulled up and some nice whiskey ready. John sits with him - he doesn't remain standing. It shows Aurelio isn't just a business contact to him. This isn't him interrogating Aurelio - he legitimately just wanted to know if Aurelio had lied to the kid to get him to leave the car there. It would have been as simple as John just driving out of there. But Aurelio chose loyalty over cleverness. He would rather turn Iosef away, sock him in the mouth, and risk getting in trouble on the spot. He could have lied. He could have called Viggo and told him what Iosef did. But he didn't. Not out of fear - out of respect for a friend. Respect for a legend.
True enough, although I imagine that if Aurelio had done that, John would have his car back, but would then go after Iosef anyway. The theft of the car and the killing of the dog would not be fixed by the return of the car, not to mention the insult to John of the theft and killing. Iosef was a dead man the minute he walked into John’s house with theft on his mind. There are some things that you just don’t do.
@davidzasloff8797 I don't think the car was as important to John as the dog was. The car was just the final insult. If Aurelio had placated the kid to get him to leave the car, then turned it over to John when he showed up, it wouldn't have changed anything other than John getting his car back.
"I tell you something he is going to understand." Love that line.
As an owner of two dogs myself I can confirm the events that take place after this scene are 100% accurate
😂
Apparently the guy who played Joesf's younger henchman cried after they did the scene where the puppy died and spent some time just playing with the puppy.
WHAT $ucking events?
Having to address “as an owner myself” that statement answers a question no one asked.
And this despite the fact that John had only had that dog for a few days. There are some things that you just don’t do, as the song says - you don’t interfere with the last gift that a dead woman gave to her husband, and you don’t kill a guy’s dog. Period.
Everybody in his shop stops and watches John walk through when he shows up. Nuff said.
The incredible thing about the John Wick series is that it remains consistent throughout 1-4. The darkness, professional, calculated, and attention to detail is the same with all movies. It doesn’t change tone with humor, gore, action, etc. It’s just a masterpiece throughout. My favorite action series of all time. The attention to detail is just incredible.
Idk, JW4 was pretty silly imo, the magic suits that deflect bullets were a bit too over the top, to the point where I was thinking what's the point of using a gun if they're all just using their magic suits to block the shots? You can only suspend your disbelief for so long watching a film.
@@Binxalot I concur. The first movie at least nodded toward reality. John was a tank for absorbing damage, but things that should have injured him a lot still did. The succeeding movies get increasingly ridiculous, as John is repeatedly shot and stabbed, run into by cars, and falls off buildings, and not only survives but gets back up and keeps fighting. #4 might as well be a Loony Toons cartoon.
No, the consistent thing is that they all should have been dead or in jail by the end of each movie.
It does not😂
@@BinxalotWell I don't know about magic and stopping every bullet, it might've been unrealistic durability for armor of that weight but the fact it's acknowledged the shots still hurt quite a lot tells me the *energy* from the bullets still isn't being stopped completely
The reason to use guns even if Wick has that suit on is that the velocity is likely still enough to be cracking bones, leaving nasty bruises at the very least. If he sustained heavy fire without killing whoever was attacking him quickly the armor would probably break pretty fast, and it would probably cause internal bleeding before it even got to that point
"Oh." - Viggo Tarasov
The sheer amount of information in that one uttered word is staggering.
@@phantomdance When in Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan, William Shatner as Adm. Kirk said famously, "KHAAAAN!", Viggo one ups that with a two letter, one syllable utterance. "Oh."
So powerful, yet subtle. Externally calm, internally furious.

@@ParkysPlace Viggo obviously indulged Iosef too much. He should have taught him not to be such an arrogant, ignorant prick.
Aurelio has drinks ready 4 John, as if he's been expecting him. Such a good friend right there.
The absolute fear when Aurelio sees the car. He knew.
"you fucked up his dog, that's crazy shit man"
Smack!!
When this came out a coworker went to see it and told me he didn't understand John's motivation.
I just assumed he was a sociopath, because you'd have to be pretty inhuman and soulless to not understand.
He is not a human he’s a synthwalker
It's a spin on a pretty classic trope. Instead of a retired action hero being pulled back into the life by the death of his wife/girlfriend, he loses his dog. Somehow it feels more vitriolic.
The dog was a gift from his wife after she died. So he wouldn't be alone.
@@Harry-cm2io So he wouldn't be alone - and would stay human. I don't recall if she actually knew what her husband did before he retired, but you don't get married to a man like that and live with him without seeing that there's some serious darkness under the skin. She knew she was the one who got him out of whatever it was he used to do, and wanted to give him something to keep him out. And it was working until Josef f***ed it up.
The best nuance in this scene is Aurelio pouring John a drink, but John doesn't drink it until he hears Aurelio's story. Drinking it signifying he accepts Aurelio's non-participation in all that had happened.
1:11 I love how the whole crew watches him walk into the shop and they all immediately react like "oh shit, that's John fucking Wick"
John Leguizamo is so underrated honestly and he did not have a big part in the film but he had a big impact😊😊😊 I love the first John Wick the best😊😊😊😊
As the. Shop.. Owner, he carried the scene, well.
"The problem isn't what you did.... it's so you did it to." Great line
He took the bus instead of the suv in his garage. Found the bus route and even a stop in front of where he needs to go in that moment. Love this movie
The goons slashed the tires of the SUV.
How is he supposed to drive both cars home if he chose to drive his SUV?
SUV cannot drive, windshield is not in conditions, also you don't have papers and registration, also is reported stolen.
@@GeomancerHTwait repeat that
Tired slash no winshield. Whoud he spend hour waiting for aaa to replace with spares tires or just take the bus and get there.
John Wick should be taught in storywriting classes. This movie tells so much without giving away so little. John's car is essentially a plot device to bring us to Aurelio's garage where we get indirect characterization for John from Aurelio by the secondary antagonist of the story, just amping up how much he's messed up and how important Aurelio knows that car is.
Dont get me wrong, its a great movie but its hardly some story writing masterpiece. The whole movie people do nonsensical shit just to advance the plot and/or to facilitate an action scene.
Like, just the idea that Josef doesnt know who John Wick is stretches belief. We are constantly told what a legend Wick is and Literally everyone (even the random ass bouncer at the club lol) knows who John is but the son of Viggo doesnt? Shit, John had only been retired for a few years at this point. Josef would have in his late teens/early 20s when John was working for his dad. But he never saw him even one time despite him being responsible for Viggos whole empire?😂
He only doesnt know who John is because it suits the story. It really makes no logical sense.
I mean Josef not knowing isn't too surprising, the guy was kind of a moron even before killing Wick's dog and stealing his car. John Wick was an assassin so he wouldn't be seen much and why would he be going over to Viggo's place often I bet most of their talk was through telephones and Viggo telling Wick to kill some target. Josef looks like he's early 20's so he would know little about how all the things work under the table compared to someone like Viggo.
Old man bouncer knowing who Wick is makes logical sense since he's been around for decades most likely based on his facial features and hair color and maybe he worked with him in the past at some point hence the offer from Wick for him to take the night off so he doesn't have to kill him.
Time to start my John Wick marathon after watching this.
Just out of curiosity, did you know that there is a difference between right and wrong? Or do you hurt people whenever you feel like it?
John really loved his wife and the final gift she gave him. That dog was beloved ❤
There are two types of people.
The ones you know how those world works .
And the ones who are too stupid to see the picture.
Aurelio knew what he was doing.
Vigo son is just to stupid
Aurelio is probably where John had his car serviced lol
I bet Aurelio’s shop is actually really, really good at auto repair.
Well it is serviced there, in the 2nd movie when he finally gets the car back and it suffers extensive damage he calls up Aurelio to fix it. Aurelio tells him it will take years because the entire car is basically destroyed from all the gunfire and such, but he'll do it because John really likes his car.
Arilio didn't fear John Wick. He respected him. There is a difference. ✊😎
That punch said, " Congratulations, kid, you just destroyed your Father's business."
Talking about interesting details, it is worth to mention that among the different liquors Aurelio has (left side @ 1:23 ), he specifically serves a tequila named 'Peligroso' (Spanish for 'Dangerous') @ 1:38
Nice catch, hadn´t notice that detail!!!!
Small role, but in my opinion, Leguizamo's best.
I remember watching this scene in the movies. When he told Viggo what happened and Viggo was like “oh” all the men in the theater broke out laughing
This is how you make a character of myth. All that Aurelio needed to see was the car. Out of all the high end vehicles in his shop, John’s is the one that caused the most emotion. The scene where Viggo is explaining to his son who John is, and the phone call with John….just peak character building.
This movie was paced out really good from action to down time with world build and back and forth. Same with the 2nd movie.
However 3rd and fourth just seem to be all action and doesn't allow us to have that slow time to process it all.
Three and four also left out the part that made the movie really work, the relationship loss and pain John is going through.
Well 3 and 4 are taking place during a time where basically everyone and their mother are hunting John so it's not surprising
@@shadowcastyt The time elapsed between the end of 2 and the end of 4 is literally days. Like a week, tops.
@@dvs620 “Well, we figured the first three movies almost happened in like a week, week and a half, somewhere in there. That's my version, I think Keanu’s is a little different, and I think this (JW 4) is like six months later. So within a year, I think it all happens. I would say almost within 7 to 8 months.” -Chad Stahelski
So JW 1-3 time span around a week and a half JW 4 is like 6-7 months after JW 3
All good observations for 4 movies that are all terrific
What I love is that John didn't change the shirt. The blood is vivid on it. Sends a message.
You gotta admire the actor swift change from exasperation, to worried, to knowing many are screwed in a few short seconds
One thing I appreciate is that John could have killed Aurelio erroneously thinking he was involved with Viggo's Son's actions, but he meets with him, asks his story, and is calm the entire time. It really sells that while John is a deadly, *_horrifyingly dangerous man,_* he's also got a very strong sense of reason and frienship. Aurelio wanted none of John's smoke, and John respected that. Says a lot about both characters.
My GOD, I love the concern in Aurelio's voice when he says, "Where'd you get that car?" It's like he's got aids or cancer in his garage and wants it out of there as soon as possible.
The look on Aurelio’s face when he pulled the gun on him was funny. He’s like, “C’mon do it! I dare you!”
Keanu Reeves career was done almost 10 years after Matrix 3. Then this dropped and you were like damn this is good
He may not have had alot of opportunities to show off what exactly he is capable of, but John Leguizamo is a fucking phenomenal actor. I have enjoyed everything he has portrayed way back to Spawn, he's just too good.
If you haven't seen him as Tybalt in Baz Luhrman's 1996 Romeo + Juliet, I highly recommend it. It is a phenomenal film, and Leguizamo's portrayal is absolutely execellent.
This is what bothers me SO much about the sequels... its an entire world living in sync with ours, and unless you're a part of it you'll never know... but the sequels have litterally THOUSANDS of assassins coming out of the woodwork, in that city alone... it was stupifying... let alone 200 people slaughtered in the airport alone and not a peep from law enforcement
Yeah that's a popular critique that I agree with too so my only head canon solution is that the amount of money that has to be floating around that ecosphere can just simply make anything go away. Everyone has a price.
I mean, there's always the theory that John died at the end of the first film and 2-4 are Purgatory.
The way his expression changes so subtly walking is crazy
I love how this movie very slowly reveals who Wick is (till it explodes at the house scene)
What I like about this movie is....nothing. Thieves and killers who are not dead or in jail at the end. Why would I like this movie, again?
“May I ask why?”
“Because he stole John Wicks car sir, and…killed his dog.”
“Oh.” 💀🪦🌹
Viggo would understand the reason why Aurelio punched Iosef in the first place.
Victor was wrong to believe that Viggo was not going to like Aurelio punching Iosef. That was not the part he won’t like, instead Iosef messing with John Wick was the part Viggo was not going to like.
*Wick's
Oh
"Have a good night Aurelio"
"Its wicking time" has to be my favorite lines from this film.
The dude who pulls the gun on Aurelio looks like a white Styles P lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Another snot-nosed would-be tough guy, like his employer.
I love how much you can see Arelleo lose his cool before hitting vego's son because there like the very serious face when he asks if they killed him and then very quickly is like "you stupid piece of shit you probably just got me killed as collateral"
Kids these days,
AmIright?
I love that movie. The puppy was so cute.
John Wick is so terrifying that some would rather punch the son of a mob boss and have a gun aimed at their head.
Aurelio punching Iosef was truly acceptable. He did feel sorry for John.
That bus was the safest bus in the WORLD while he was on it
Why'd you have to cut it off at the best part? Where he gets the call.
Or, he asked him if he wanted to earn a coin
"Let me tell you something: he's gonna understand." Man he was the smartest character in the series
Aurelio should've just kept the car and give it back to John.
Aurelio knew that wouldn't make any difference. Iosef would still be a dead man. Aurelio just didn't want any part of Iosef's screwup.
@danieldickson8591 i know Iosef will still be dead, but as a friend, he could've still just got John's car back.
@@andyk446 Iosef was not trying to sell the car, he wanted it cleaned so he could keep it. So Aurelio would have had to steal it from him, kill him etc to get the car. And that is probably a level of escalation he does not want to deal with given who his father is.
@Ahglock he wouldnt need to kill him, just take the car from him. Given how Iosef's father reacted to why Aurelio slapped Iosef, pretty sure he would have been ok with it too.
You don't get it. Any interference or action towards what happened would look bad or be bad. He wants no part, plus he can't keep Losef there, he's the son of one the biggest crime lords of the city. There's no rational thing he could have done
At this point Aurelio was absolutely aware he was looking at a dead man.
One of the best scenes in the movie. John Leguizamo killed this role.
Love the fact that he already has a seat waiting for him there
First thing he does. Before opening his mouth. He offers John 'peace'.
We know this after watching the second movie.
I dont know if that piece of the lore was done before the first movie or added after the second.
But we all know now, Aurelio offered John peace.
John Accept the peace after the explanation, and only then. Then he ask for the car and Aurelio is obliged to give it.
Details.
I like how the dude is in nice clothes and leather jacket acting like he's working on a car wiping his hands off on a rag.
John Leguizamo is amazing
Viggo would’ve hand delivered his pos son if he’d been ANYBODY but his son. Even then he didn’t rule it out
The cool thing about this movie is they did an inverse of the save the cat trope to establish not only motivation for John but it provides a twisted form of justification for his actions. Its a beautiful piece of writing.
Keanu's monologue in the warehouse after Viggo's goons catch him, really clarifies what the killing of that dog meant to him, so we finally fully understand why he's doing this. That was the most intense and passionate performance I've ever seen from Reeves.
There is something cool about this movie? Really? Thieves and killers? Gee, how cool does it get?
"Where'd you get that car?!?" Aurelio immediately knew
I love the mechanic over aurelio shoulder in the shot 2:29
You left out the best part. When his Viggo says, "Oh..."!
Long live John Wick!
I like how John didn’t even change out of his bloody shirt. Just checked the garage and stepped onto the bus 😂
He should have accepted the car and kept it there for John. He knew John Wick would be coming looking for it.
@kuromori6200 that makes no sense. John is obviously his good friend. He could have just told him I knew this was your car so I kept it for you. He would t have had to go through all the trouble of getting it back.
Virgo and John know to listen to him. Doesn’t stop their warpath but shows just how much respect he’s give
Aurelio wouldn’t help Iosev with the new vin number and clean papers because he knows he wouldn’t do that to John. He’s better than that.
*security dude watching monitors, shaking* "uh sir, yea, Mr. Wicks at the door and uh, he doesnt look to happy."
As soon as Aurelio sees that car he knows there is a pile of hurt coming. They need to develop hushed character motor and have him involved
Wick spotted that SS as soon as he entered the shop.
I bet John gave the bus driver a $100 for the fare
Make that a gold coin..😅
The look of "Oh f***!* on Aurelio's eyes at 0:33 is priceless.
I love how once they pull the gun on Aurelio all of his mechanics stop what they are doing and are ready to use whatever they have in their hands to back up their boss that’s some respect 🫡
That Chevelle did sound real good 👍
I like how John's reply is step by step when Aurelio asked John, what are you going to do. John gently finished his drinks,gently setting it down, then simply said "I need a ride". Shows how much mental capacity he has under such intense traumatizing events. Takes us some time to go through emotional stages. Not John Wick,on what he is about to carry out with emotional tranquility...
