The way Viggo said "Oh" matches the letter O, rather than saying like "Oh?" or "Ohhhh". This alone shows not only Viggo forgives Aurelio for punching his son in the face, but also in his head, he know his son had poked a bear that he suppose not to poke and both of them are doomed. Very powerful scene.
I love how Aurelio just gives John everything he asks for, doesn't even think twice about giving up his partners son, gives him a new ride just because he asked. Right from the get go when he saw the car he was like "I want no part in this".
Money can be earned. Only respect is given. As a young teen I learned quickly that loyalty is the currency to deal in and because of that I bought security and safety for my family. Money can be earned, only respect is given. I'd rather be broke and respected.
The most underrated line is "How do you know what Viggo likes or doesn't like?" There's immense power in that line, that says "I'm management, you're the staff"
Aurelio punching Iosef in the face wasn’t the part Viggo was not going to like, but rather, Iosef messing with John Wick was the part Viggo wasn’t going to like.
Other way around, I think. Iosef is the boss' son and theoretically the future boss, Aurelio just runs one small part of the company. Iosef is way higher on the totem pole than Aurelio. But Iosef is also the new guy, who may have more authority in theory but doesn't know what the hell he's doing yet. Whereas Aurelio is that employee who's been with the company forever and is really good at his job, so even the CEO sits up and listens when he talks. The dynamic isn't "I'm management and you're staff," it's "I'm the guy who knows where the bodies are buried, you're the guy who still gets lost on his way to the bathroom."
The fact that viggo called aurelio instead of just setting a hit on him establishes that there’s a good amount of respect between them and combined with the fact that viggo could of just killed him for putting his hands on his son ALONE but he gave him the respect to at least tell him what happened instead of out right killing him
He obviously worked with them before , hence why the kid took the car there first. So Viggo probably found it odd that Aurelio would just hit his kid when he clearly knows who he is. I
@@maxie0669 The moment Viggo learns that Iosef messed with John Wick, he was shocked. Victor thought that Aurelio punching Iosef was the part Viggo was not going to like, but that was false. Instead, Iosef messing with John Wick was the part Viggo was not going to like.
I've come a point in my life where if I do something that could possibly end my life even the smallest thing I am not afraid but a mob boss yeah I'd be afraid but I know it's not a good idea too run so I would either call too tell oh have a not on the door explaining why I did what I did and I'm inside tell them where I am in the building I'm not about too make it harder for them too find me
Aurelio is a friend of John's, and even HE was afraid when John walked in after it all went down. He KNEW it was all over, and that old connections didn't matter anymore. Anyone was in the crosshairs if they got in the way. Beautifully filmed
I don't know. I more read it that he was going to have to give his friend the bad news of who killed his dog (knowing that it was going to be bad for everyone, and uphill for John).
That's the symbolism of the drink Aurelio offers John. Note that John doesn't immediately accept the drink: he was waiting to see if Aurelio had any role in what occurred. Aurelio told John everything without lies or hesitation. John was satisfied that Aurelio had no part, accepted the drink, and asked for a car. Until that point John would have killed Aurelio. Taking the drink showed that they were ok.
I love how when he says "guess we'll take our business someplace else" he doesn't even turn around or slow down. He's just thinking "buddy, your not going to be taking your business any place else ever again".
Great script writing! No monologing or dramatic music... Just one word, "oh" which makes the whole audience understand how much respect and fear Mr Wick carries!
The thing i like the most is aurelio's position. - Works for Viggo - John trust him with a drink and sits with him despite being on revenge mode - Probably gave Theon a little more time before dying by making him leave - Punches Theon knowing full well that, John Wick or not, Viggo could still make him pay. - Cooperates with John as soon as he comes in - Has an unspoken understanding with Viggo that punching his son didn't even matter, and asking for apologies would be a waste of time at this point. I don't like action movies in general but the mythos they build around John and how the characters interact with him is so great. Jimmy the cop, waste disposal guy, Aurelio, Francis, the hotel host, the barmaid, and that old great actor that i always forget the name. I talk too much but had to dump this somewhere. Rarely have i seen an action movie with such satisfying world building.
@@Nardrasil Oh, dump away my friend! That was brilliant and loved reading it! I think that's the magic of this scene, the multiple meanings and connotations the viewer gets in one second from an "oh" because of the build up and characterization! 👍
I love how Viggo starts with "I heard you struck my son" to get Aurelio's attitude and hear his side rather than straight up assuming. Similarly Aurelio instantly recognizes the car but still asks "where'd you get that car" and "did you kill him".
Viggo's "Oh," was compounded because he already had information John Wick's wife had passed from a cruel sickness. Then, when he receives word that his own son killed John Wick's dog and stole his car, he knew from years of previous experience with John that there was going to be a serious reckoning.
@@WindDemon3895 Exactly. Viggo began that phone call thinking "Aurelio better have a VERY good explanation for this!" Viggo knows that Aurelio is a smart man, and he would never put his hands on Iosef without having a good reason.
@@PrimeCypher He would only understand if he was aware of WHO they just stole from...but clearly they didn't. And they still covered Iosef's ass until they died, and they couldn't even see the face of the one who came for retribution.
@@SoldierOfFate The look of concern is from doubt, Aurelio said it himself "I work *with* your father" not *for* . Which underscores there is a mutual working relationship that Aurelio is not hired staff but someone who has Viggo's ear and perhaps someone who Viggo seeks counsel from. The latter somewhat can be estabalished by the simple fact that Viggo call's Aurelio directly instead of doing a hit on him.
Fearing John's reputations aside, anyone notice the moment Aurelio started to attack Iosef, Aurelio's Workers immediately stopped working, started arming themselves and getting ready to do some work on Viggo's Son and his pals?
Yeah, also how Viggo called and asked, confirming that Aurelio truly was working WITH Iosef's father rather than specifically FOR him. He called and asked, out of respect for a fellow associate rather than some schmuck further down the totem pole. He called and asked, knowing there must have been a reason for which he would have to prepare contingencies. Even if it wasn't Wick, Iosef was gonna be finished within years of taking over the reins anyway, the way he carried himself. Most movies like these you see the boss unrealistically just IMMEDIATELY call a hit on everyone and everything = Actually not how it goes IRL among these bigger mobsters, because it brings heat from authorities and is bad for business. So, they talk or have sitdowns first.
@@gynandroidheadya lol I like to think theirs an alternative world where he calls John says “look I understand I can’t understand your pain but please don’t kill my boy, you can fuck him up but don’t kill or cripple him.” And for some reason John agrees and they all leave in peace (well except the son he’s now suffering form multiple broken bones)
@@jefflemere4609 the fact that John isn’t even after Aurelio, yet the latter still shits his pants being near him speaks a lot about John’s reputation as a legendary assassin
@@TheSoullessImmortal Indeed it did. Plus the defeated "oh" from Viggo, just goes to show how much respected, feared and infamous John Wick really is, even before we knew about Wicks true skills.
@@Ortium Yes, but at the same time, knowing how dangerous John is, Aurelio was probably in a panic thinking all he wanted to do was distance himself from the car to make sure there was 0 appearance he had any involvement. Hence the drink as a peace offering and giving up who attacked him immediately along with supplying a car.
@@YAH93In reality the production numbers for the 1969 Mustang Mach 1 were less than 60k, and not too many of them are still around. If it was a "Boss" variant that makes it even rarer still, with only 1,628 Boss 302's made, and only 857 Boss 429's made. It is an instantly recognizable car.
I love how Viggo asks Aurelio why he struck Ioseph. He’s angry, but curious. He knows Aurelio would NEVER do that unless there was a VERY good reason. Turns out, he had the best reason.
Viggo didn't get where he did by being stupid. He didn't 'forgive' Aurelio, he knows his son, he knows why he son went to Aurelio's place, he understood what had happened and why. He probably didn't give Aurelio's totally understandable action another thought, he knows he has actual *existential* problems to worry about.
Especially the Assassin that built the foundation on which your organization grew from, so he knows exactly how to tear it down... still could never wrap my head around how Viggo never told the story or explained to his son as to how they came to power, or at least provide the name and address of the people to never mess with when doing their hustles...

I love this type of trust in the audience and their intelligence. I wish directors did this more often! But not the "Somehow Palpatine came back" type of directors
The eye shift where he looks at Iosef at first like “ehhh this guy’s in my garage again”, slightly smiling with a raised eyebrow. Usual business. Then it all sinks into a look of DEEP concern once he got close enough to see whose car Iosef nicked.
@@Little_Kings_Theory Aurelio disliked Yosef due to his arrogance and selfishness. Plus, Yosef laughed at killing John Wick's dog which was a few days after John's wife passed away, leading Aurelio to be disgusted and punch him. Yosef was upset about being punched and meeting his death, but that is his fault. Besides, it's possible there are other organizations that really disliked Yosef that would be glad that he died and feel sorry for John.
Even if he wasn’t his mechanic, there are things that stick in your mind without realizing. That’s one vehicle that I am sure that everyone who knew who it belonged to would not have liked to see it parked outside when they were not expecting it.
@@WhiteScarsEmo 'Comedy' actors are often (certain Adam Sandler-shaped exceptions aside) *exceptionally* good, because comedy needs you to be for it to work. Good timing, being able to change emotion on a switch or produce one entirely at odds with the scene around you, reading scene flow... all things that are important in serious acting and absolutely indispensable in comic acting. And for comedy to really land, there has to be a moment where the laughter stops. I'm probably preaching to the choir, but a good example is Leslie Nielsen's stuff. He got famous for Airplane and Naked Gun, but he was a well-respected actor long before then.
I imagine that in some alternate universe where Viggo managed to keep Iosef alive and kill Wick, afterwards he’d go to Aurelio and demand compensation for his struck son…which would be nothing more than just one gold coin. Or like a paltry sum of cash or something. Society demands that he take “retribution” for his son but the circumstances are such that actually harming Aurelio for it would be completely uncalled for. I’d also love to see the alternate universe where John got up to use the bathroom just before Iosef broke in and so isn’t caught by surprise. One fight later the three idiots are on the floor. He ties them up, puts him in his basement, checks their IDs and sees they’re connected to Viggo, and gives Viggo a call. “Hello Viggo.” “Hello John. I must admit I am surprised to hear from you.” “Yeah.” “I heard about your wife. I’m very sorry.” “Thanks.” “Is there a reason for this call?” “Yeah. Your son broke into my house and tried to steal my car. And he scared my dog.” “…I see. My son, is he…?” “He’ll live.” “Thank you, John. I’ll send someone to collect him immediately.” “Thanks. Good talking to you, Viggo.” “You too, John.”
You know, that would have made a great opening sequence as well. It would have been a completely different movie, of course; maybe Iosef keeps trying to take down John and he keeps trying to not kill him without Viggo's permission, or something, but that would have been an amazing film idea.
@@z0rrofan9 I imagine that movie would be about Iosef thinking Viggo was testing him to see if he would remain in his shadow under his protection, or to take the initiative and kill John thus proving his is ready to lead the family. The movie would see Iosef slowly descending into madness after being constantly told off by Viggo who stops everyone of his plans with Iosef eventually taking Viggo prisoner telling him that he would make him proud with John rescuing him and the two working together to put a end to Iosef's madness leading to a ending that sees Iosef killing Viggo then losing a final battle to John.
When John drank in the glass he offered him, you can imagine the relief in Aurélio stomach. "at least now, I am CERTAIN he doesn't consider mugging me"
@@guillaumelassus9307 "did you accept the job or not?" "nope, the car isn't here" _sips in signal of approval that you did the right thing and you aren't on John's list_
I really like that Viggo doesn't just order Aurelio dead. He understands that if Aurelio did hit his son he must have a good reason for it and gives him a chance to explain.
There's just something refreshing about him as an antagonist. He clearly understands and respects what John Wick is, as is evident in the way he handles the news.
The moment Aurelio heard what happened he probably had already picked a car, pulled up the seats, picked the best booze he had, and waited. Knowing John would come, and he wanted to put his best foot forward. A "Bro, I had nothing to do with it" gesture.
Funny thing is that you see the camera pass that car at the start of the scene but you don't realise it when you first see the movie but certainly do on further viewings.
This "OH" from Vigo tells more than the complete film. He knows now, that his biggest and really feared problem came to life. JOHN WICK! And he knew: his son f***ed up really hard. Very impressive scene. One of my absolute favourites from J.W.
Sid the sloth is scary man John Leguizamo is actually really threatening in this role, he demands respect while on screen Every actor in this movie is fantastic John Wick is almost a strange anomaly in the world of Cinema, it feels unlike anything else and I love it
@@shivamsarmah3333 good comment to get the SS scanning through all your family, friends and associates lives and their friends and families too. They can nip whatever suspicious in the bud, even if found it was by mistake, only later.
It's subtle, but Aurelio is a sly fox. "Did you kill him or what?" If they actually managed to kill John, this wouldn't have been such a massive issue. Hell, if they didn't kill the dog this could have been resolved. However, that last line was all Aurelio needed to hear
Exactly! If the gang killed John after killing his dog, Aurelio probably wouldn't be so livid. He probably just say that "you just brushed off death REALLY close there". The same goes if they only stole John's car while leaving John and his dog alive (maybe Viggo can make a big apology and compensate John afterwards). Once he heard what they did and John is still alive, he knows all Iosef did is provoking Death incarnation itself to descend upon them all.
Think if they had killed John he'd of actually changed the VIN or still declined, perhaps a little more politely and directed him to tell his father who he killed and swiped the car from? I bet Viggo would still be upset.
Given how close Aurelio was shown to be with John in Chapter 2, I wouldn't be surprised if Aurelio attended Hellen's funeral like Marcus did. Making Iosef's last line hit that much harder.
It's probably not too far fetched to think that had Iosef killed John when he had the chance, either Marcus or Caine(if he decided to come out of retirement for it) would've killed Iosef
I know many people have said in the comments on this scene it's just a dog, but there are many factors that are being missed. They broke into his house(you break into my house your not leaving alive), assaulted John, killed the last gift his wife gave him while he is mourning her, stole his car and on top of that Viggo broke his promise to John on leaving John alone period....it Viggo's fault his son was arrogant, stupid and didn't know who he was....so to Viggo's son....Taste the Rainbow!
I mean, I'll fuck someone up over most of these singularly. From my dead wife's respect to my dog to my car to invading my castle, any one of these would command a proper fuck about. Imo. I'm looking at my dog now and thinking about the time I loosened someone's teeth for saying they would steal him. Let alone the grieving of my wife. To be clear here, John in the story is the most justified murderer in literature lol. We're not even speaking on how Viggo son dismantled decades worth of trust building in an assassin organization. Disturbing John's peace is enough.
You may have forgotten one thing. The silver car that had the baseball bat lodged in the windscreen, when John enters the garage, that was probably his wife's car that he understandably couldn't bear to part with. One more factor.
To be honest, I think the best piece of acting is right at 1:43, after Iosef says "We own you." You see Aurelio go through the understanding that he is, in fact, indebted to Viggo's gang. But then he puts on a brave face and confronts Iosef, saying that he 'works' with his father.
I never noticed that John is already there before Viggo calls. The implication is that John is only about an hour behind Iosef - who doesn't even realise what he's done yet. Iosef was already inches from the grim reaper.
The difference between this scene and the scene where he gets his car back in JW2 shows how much John respects Aurelio and values their friendship. I also enjoy how Aurelio has a chair ready for John.
Aurelio is old guard, he's like the front lobby guy at the hotel, he knows how things go and where the respect goes, he understands the world he's in and that's why he has a drink and stuff ready for John and stuff like that.
He certainly respects, John, and those exactly what happened to him and how he’s going to respond. His goal was to not become collateral damage. He knew he was coming. He had a chair and another glass ready.
He knows John will come for him and the drinks were a sign if John will trust him or will kill him. Notice how John didn't take his offer at first maybe thinking it was spiked, but after hearing his side, John drank it all showing he trusts him.
Just to add to this a year or so later... its also notably one of the few times characters share a drink, and interactions end without violence. A recurring theme i believe thruout the series until maybe the 4th
After you realize the body count John piled up by the end of Chapter 4, you can feel what Aurelio felt when he saw that car, and also the weight of that, "Oh."
Heck, even just Chapter 1. Viggo built a massive, multi generational criminal empire on the foundation of all the murders John committed in order to secure his release from the organization. By the time John got ahold of Iosef, Viggo's organization was thoroughly decimated, with hundreds of loyal crew members dead and his legacy destroyed. Iosef would have done less damage to his father's organization with a nuclear bomb.
While I do like all of the John Wick movies, they really started to go too over the top after the second one. The first two felt grounded with a bit of mystery surrounding this society of assassins that you were really invested in, especially the first film. There was loads of action for sure, but there was also character development like the famous speech Vigo gives about John and why he is so terrifying. We stopped getting that in 3 and 4 and I think it was to the franchise's detriment. The action is great in all of them, but you can really feel how much they were trying to one-up the last movie and doing so didn't really benefit the films. While I'm glad I watched the other three in the series, I do think John Wick would have been a much more potent film as a stand-alone instead of becoming a franchise.
4 felt a bit over the top for me, with everyone having armored clothing and using it like a shield all the time, especially John. I appreciate Keanu is getting older and might not be physically able to do the more demanding stuff that doesn't go into stuntman territory, but I wish they'd gone a different route. Constantly using the armored suit as a crutch felt like it was taking away from his ability as a master assassin and gun fighter. I still enjoyed the movie, but that facet of it really kind of stuck out for me. In the first movie it really showed how why he was so revered in his circles while still allowing him to not be 100% perfect. I really don't think any of the other three movies were able to top it.
@@emberparadox458 He's been using that crutch since the 2nd movie. The first one was a basic revenge plot with some stealth/tactical elements. All the other ones became shooting sports. I just found the 2 he-shes (Rose and Dillon) to be particularly obnoxious, the latter moreso.
John knew the car was gonna be there & Aurelio confirmed it was. Which means John accepted the respect from Aurelio for not willing to be involved despite being a part of Viggo's empire.
I love the background detail of Aurelio's crew grabbing tools the moment that guy points a gun at him. They know how scary Viggo's organisation is but they're not selling out Aurelio to Theon of all people.
Everyone’s butts would have been in those seats. Who’s John Wick, why is this dude scared, and why is killing the dog such a big deal? (One awesome movie experience later) Oh.
Pretty much. If he hit his son, it means serious shit is really serious. Aka, you stole somthing from someone very dangerous, aka John, or someone from thr hightable elite.
Exactly. Anybody else, Viggo wouldn't have even bothered calling. Calling Aurelio and giving him a chance to explain himself shows the level of respect he has for him
_Evolution of Aurelio's Face in this Scene:_ 1. Great... More work for daddy's boy. 2. Wait... 3. Wait a f*cking minute! 4. Is it John Wick's Car?! 5. Sh*t, it's the John Wick Car 6. Ok, maybe it's not that bad. Maybe he just stole it on the sly 7. Oh my gosh! Violent assault on John Wick! 8. AND KILLED HIS DOG!! 9. Get this stupid brat out of the shop!! Being around him can already make me suspicious!! 10. _*Punches the brainless brat_ 11. I'd rather play my luck with an angry mob boss than John Wick! 12. Not all the salary or drinks in the world will make up for this...
Up until now I completely missed Aurelio's staff stopping what they were doing and looking at John Wick walk through their shop. It was subtle but pretty cool.
What i love about this scene is that it sets up John so perfectly, showing that he is so well known that even those at the top of the pecking order watch themselves when it comes to Wick.
Imagine the amount of respect between Viggo and Aurelio when Viggo gives Aurelio the chance to explain himself before killing him and Aurelio gives the explanation.
Here’s a little tidbit of trivia that people may not know in reference to this scene. John Leguizamo auditioned twice for the role of Aurelio and finally got it despite the fact that he is a brain dead communist idiot leftist POS.
Then after telling Iosef about the dude. The kid is stupid enough to think he can take him. Hence the line, "Did he hear a fucking word I said?". Viggo gives him the biggest hug because he knows it will be the last time he may ever see him again while letting g him know just how much he screwed up and that Iosef will surely die
It applies to everything in life. No matter how tough you are, how much of a badass, how strong you think you are There’s always somebody tougher. Period.
”Because he stole John Wick’s car, sir and uh… killed his dog.”

I don't know. I more read it that he was going to have to give his friend the bad news of who killed his dog (knowing that it was going to be bad for everyone, and uphill for John).
That's the symbolism of the drink Aurelio offers John. Note that John doesn't immediately accept the drink: he was waiting to see if Aurelio had any role in what occurred. Aurelio told John everything without lies or hesitation. John was satisfied that Aurelio had no part, accepted the drink, and asked for a car. Until that point John would have killed Aurelio. Taking the drink showed that they were ok.
I love how when he says "guess we'll take our business someplace else" he doesn't even turn around or slow down. He's just thinking "buddy, your not going to be taking your business any place else ever again".
Out of business right that moment😂
To a funeral home, maybe.

And let's not forget - I intend to hit him too once I see him. Yep, we are all fucked.
Great script writing! No monologing or dramatic music... Just one word, "oh" which makes the whole audience understand how much respect and fear Mr Wick carries!
The thing i like the most is aurelio's position.
- Works for Viggo
- John trust him with a drink and sits with him despite being on revenge mode
- Probably gave Theon a little more time before dying by making him leave
- Punches Theon knowing full well that, John Wick or not, Viggo could still make him pay.
- Cooperates with John as soon as he comes in
- Has an unspoken understanding with Viggo that punching his son didn't even matter, and asking for apologies would be a waste of time at this point.
I don't like action movies in general but the mythos they build around John and how the characters interact with him is so great. Jimmy the cop, waste disposal guy, Aurelio, Francis, the hotel host, the barmaid, and that old great actor that i always forget the name.
I talk too much but had to dump this somewhere.
Rarely have i seen an action movie with such satisfying world building.
@@Nardrasil Oh, dump away my friend! That was brilliant and loved reading it! I think that's the magic of this scene, the multiple meanings and connotations the viewer gets in one second from an "oh" because of the build up and characterization! 👍

@@KM_1983 i was talking about Ian mcshane, but yeah i forgot about Dafoe ^^
To be fair, immediately after this there was a monologue with dramatic music about John Wick, but this was still awesome.
I love how Viggo starts with "I heard you struck my son" to get Aurelio's attitude and hear his side rather than straight up assuming. Similarly Aurelio instantly recognizes the car but still asks "where'd you get that car" and "did you kill him".
Because he knew if they didn't .... h3ll was coming after them!
Yep. The very 1st act-of-war is recon AKA intelligence-gathering!
He was asking if they're walking dead men or not... When he figured they _are_ walking dead men he didn't want anything to do them 'em.
Funny thing was they easily had the best opportunity to kill wick at his weakest, when he had no will to fight on
@@JanWynd where did you learn about the acts of war? And where can i learn them?
Viggo's "Oh," was compounded because he already had information John Wick's wife had passed from a cruel sickness. Then, when he receives word that his own son killed John Wick's dog and stole his car, he knew from years of previous experience with John that there was going to be a serious reckoning.
Viggo knew he couldn’t make that up, hence why he said, “Oh.”
He wish he did tho ..
More like Aurelio WOULDNT make that up because...
That is something you DONT make up
@@WindDemon3895 Yea the FAFO factor isnt worth the lie if Viggo found out he lied. The revenge would be about as epic as the movie turned into.
@@WindDemon3895 Exactly. Viggo began that phone call thinking "Aurelio better have a VERY good explanation for this!" Viggo knows that Aurelio is a smart man, and he would never put his hands on Iosef without having a good reason.
@@JSRbowling595 I'm also pretty confident that Viggo has had to clean up his son's messes before.
I love how he just dropped the tough act immediately when he realized how fucked he was
If you look closely to his hands when he poured that beer, hes trembling
It’s not a tough act, he just probably didn’t expect a justification that good.
Not really an act, dudes a mafia boss. He just realized he shouldn't be angry with Aurelio and get ready for the shitstorm that's about to occur.
Viggo still tries to put up a tough front, but you can tell how scared he is.
seems more like he was extending aurelio a professional courtesy to allow an explanation rather than being tough
The look of concern on the guys face when he’s told Viggo will understand was a nice touch. You can tell he’s starting to question things
Aurelio punching Isoef would not be the part Viggo won't like, but rather, Isoef messing with John Wick is the part Viggo won't like.
That actor was great in the whole scene.
@@PrimeCypher He would only understand if he was aware of WHO they just stole from...but clearly they didn't. And they still covered Iosef's ass until they died, and they couldn't even see the face of the one who came for retribution.
@@SoldierOfFate The look of concern is from doubt, Aurelio said it himself "I work *with* your father" not *for* . Which underscores there is a mutual working relationship that Aurelio is not hired staff but someone who has Viggo's ear and perhaps someone who Viggo seeks counsel from. The latter somewhat can be estabalished by the simple fact that Viggo call's Aurelio directly instead of doing a hit on him.
Fearing John's reputations aside, anyone notice the moment Aurelio started to attack Iosef, Aurelio's Workers immediately stopped working, started arming themselves and getting ready to do some work on Viggo's Son and his pals?
Yup. Aurelio clearly is a boss who inspires loyalty.
Damn I didn’t notice that before, nice catch
Yeah, also how Viggo called and asked, confirming that Aurelio truly was working WITH Iosef's father rather than specifically FOR him.
He called and asked, out of respect for a fellow associate rather than some schmuck further down the totem pole.
He called and asked, knowing there must have been a reason for which he would have to prepare contingencies.
Even if it wasn't Wick, Iosef was gonna be finished within years of taking over the reins anyway, the way he carried himself.
Most movies like these you see the boss unrealistically just IMMEDIATELY call a hit on everyone and everything = Actually not how it goes IRL among these bigger mobsters, because it brings heat from authorities and is bad for business. So, they talk or have sitdowns first.
@@ToreDL87unfortunatly that's exactly how they do it in mexico,except for a few
If you notice, too, that one worker immediately stopped working when he recognized the car, and that John *wasn't* driving it.
That short phone conversation expresses more gravitas than the following 3 films put together. It is an immaculate set up and execution.
-beginning of the call
“The guy is gonna fucking die”
-end of the call
“I’m fucking dead”
Too damn accurate
Should've just handed over his kid to John and said I am sorry my next of kin is such a fuck-up.
😐oh
@@gynandroidheadya lol I like to think theirs an alternative world where he calls John says “look I understand I can’t understand your pain but please don’t kill my boy, you can fuck him up but don’t kill or cripple him.” And for some reason John agrees and they all leave in peace (well except the son he’s now suffering form multiple broken bones)
Viggo could have survived if only he didn't kill Marcus. John was ready to let him live once he said where Iosef was hiding.
Aurelio immediately after recognizing the car is like “Dear God, You idiot you’ve killed us all!”
Well; Aurelio is safe, why? he smart enough not to fuck with John, John's car or kill his dog.
@@jefflemere4609
the fact that John isn’t even after Aurelio, yet the latter still shits his pants being near him speaks a lot about John’s reputation as a legendary assassin
@@TheSoullessImmortal Indeed it did. Plus the defeated "oh" from Viggo, just goes to show how much respected, feared and infamous John Wick really is, even before we knew about Wicks true skills.
Aren't aurelio and wick friends?
@@Ortium Yes, but at the same time, knowing how dangerous John is, Aurelio was probably in a panic thinking all he wanted to do was distance himself from the car to make sure there was 0 appearance he had any involvement.
Hence the drink as a peace offering and giving up who attacked him immediately along with supplying a car.
I love that he instantly recognized the car. It's like someone drove the Batmobile into his shop.
That, or John got his car from Aurelio in the first place, given he's the car guy and operates in the criminal world.
In a movie analysis, I think it's said that there only exist very few cars like Johns. That is why Aurelio instantly recognized it.

@@YAH93In reality the production numbers for the 1969 Mustang Mach 1 were less than 60k, and not too many of them are still around. If it was a "Boss" variant that makes it even rarer still, with only 1,628 Boss 302's made, and only 857 Boss 429's made.
It is an instantly recognizable car.
I love how Viggo asks Aurelio why he struck Ioseph. He’s angry, but curious. He knows Aurelio would NEVER do that unless there was a VERY good reason. Turns out, he had the best reason.
0:10 that subtle change in expressions on Aurelio's face. Great acting.
Aurelio's face switching from "that's a nice car" to "pls God tell me I'm wrong"

@@musannayahya873 true 🤣🤣
And then he went on to punch his son
Not only that but he gave him a even worse licking for it.
Viggo didn't get where he did by being stupid. He didn't 'forgive' Aurelio, he knows his son, he knows why he son went to Aurelio's place, he understood what had happened and why.
He probably didn't give Aurelio's totally understandable action another thought, he knows he has actual *existential* problems to worry about.
Hitting the all powerful mob boss’s son is unacceptable. Even deadly. Unless the said son didn’t steal the car of the best assassin in the world
to be honest he could’ve gone scott free if he didn’t kill the dog bc i doubt he would care
but killing the dog is to far
....oh
And killed his dog
Especially the Assassin that built the foundation on which your organization grew from, so he knows exactly how to tear it down... still could never wrap my head around how Viggo never told the story or explained to his son as to how they came to power, or at least provide the name and address of the people to never mess with when doing their hustles...

I love how horrified Aurelio looks and sounds just after seeing the car lol
You'd think the stupid punk would realise that if the fence won't touch that car, there has to be something very very scary about the original owner.
The eye shift where he looks at Iosef at first like “ehhh this guy’s in my garage again”, slightly smiling with a raised eyebrow. Usual business.
Then it all sinks into a look of DEEP concern once he got close enough to see whose car Iosef nicked.
if Aurelio helped Yosef, then we know what happens do we ?
@@Little_Kings_Theory Aurelio disliked Yosef due to his arrogance and selfishness. Plus, Yosef laughed at killing John Wick's dog which was a few days after John's wife passed away, leading Aurelio to be disgusted and punch him. Yosef was upset about being punched and meeting his death, but that is his fault. Besides, it's possible there are other organizations that really disliked Yosef that would be glad that he died and feel sorry for John.

Even if he wasn’t his mechanic, there are things that stick in your mind without realizing. That’s one vehicle that I am sure that everyone who knew who it belonged to would not have liked to see it parked outside when they were not expecting it.
A fact that was confirmed in the sequel after John gets his car back and Aurelio sees it went through the wringer during the "take back".
John Leguizamo is criminally underrated. You don't see him in a ton of roles, but he really brings it with the ones he has.

@@WhiteScarsEmo 'Comedy' actors are often (certain Adam Sandler-shaped exceptions aside) *exceptionally* good, because comedy needs you to be for it to work. Good timing, being able to change emotion on a switch or produce one entirely at odds with the scene around you, reading scene flow... all things that are important in serious acting and absolutely indispensable in comic acting. And for comedy to really land, there has to be a moment where the laughter stops.
I'm probably preaching to the choir, but a good example is Leslie Nielsen's stuff. He got famous for Airplane and Naked Gun, but he was a well-respected actor long before then.

Viggo was like: “Understandable have a nice day”
Viggo: Death is coming out of retirement to kill my son. I am SO f***ed.
Viggo, aloud: "Oh".
I imagine that in some alternate universe where Viggo managed to keep Iosef alive and kill Wick, afterwards he’d go to Aurelio and demand compensation for his struck son…which would be nothing more than just one gold coin. Or like a paltry sum of cash or something. Society demands that he take “retribution” for his son but the circumstances are such that actually harming Aurelio for it would be completely uncalled for.
I’d also love to see the alternate universe where John got up to use the bathroom just before Iosef broke in and so isn’t caught by surprise. One fight later the three idiots are on the floor. He ties them up, puts him in his basement, checks their IDs and sees they’re connected to Viggo, and gives Viggo a call.
“Hello Viggo.”
“Hello John. I must admit I am surprised to hear from you.”
“Yeah.”
“I heard about your wife. I’m very sorry.”
“Thanks.”
“Is there a reason for this call?”
“Yeah. Your son broke into my house and tried to steal my car. And he scared my dog.”
“…I see. My son, is he…?”
“He’ll live.”
“Thank you, John. I’ll send someone to collect him immediately.”
“Thanks. Good talking to you, Viggo.”
“You too, John.”
You know, that would have made a great opening sequence as well. It would have been a completely different movie, of course; maybe Iosef keeps trying to take down John and he keeps trying to not kill him without Viggo's permission, or something, but that would have been an amazing film idea.
Short movie, but I like it.
@@z0rrofan9 I imagine that movie would be about Iosef thinking Viggo was testing him to see if he would remain in his shadow under his protection, or to take the initiative and kill John thus proving his is ready to lead the family.
The movie would see Iosef slowly descending into madness after being constantly told off by Viggo who stops everyone of his plans with Iosef eventually taking Viggo prisoner telling him that he would make him proud with John rescuing him and the two working together to put a end to Iosef's madness leading to a ending that sees Iosef killing Viggo then losing a final battle to John.
That's why Aurellio asked "did you kill him?"
You have to imagine being Aurelio in this moment, When your boss says “oh” and hangs up , that has to be the biggest sigh of relief.
When John drank in the glass he offered him, you can imagine the relief in Aurélio stomach.

There's just something refreshing about him as an antagonist. He clearly understands and respects what John Wick is, as is evident in the way he handles the news.
3:16 _”Oh…”_ 🤣 *lol*
The moment Aurelio heard what happened he probably had already picked a car, pulled up the seats, picked the best booze he had, and waited. Knowing John would come, and he wanted to put his best foot forward. A "Bro, I had nothing to do with it" gesture.
And John knew that the moment he saw Aurelio, if not sooner. Hence why he didn’t leave bodies in his wake.
Funny thing is that you see the camera pass that car at the start of the scene but you don't realise it when you first see the movie but certainly do on further viewings.
Even had a glass on the hood ready for Wick.
On first pass I thought the shop owner called Wick about the car
Spot on!
That oh has to be one of the best explanations for a character in one word ever
The fear on Viggo's face when he says "Oh" clearly shows his son's fucked up now and he surely knows that he can't do a shit about it now.
Not that it stopped him from trying
I love how everyone in there picked up a weapon once Aurelio was threatened with a gun. They all had his back.
This "OH" from Vigo tells more than the complete film. He knows now, that his biggest and really feared problem came to life. JOHN WICK! And he knew: his son f***ed up really hard. Very impressive scene. One of my absolute favourites from J.W.

Love it as vigo felt the breath of death coming...the releasing of the kraken. He knew his son was doomed.
I like it when John just goes to the garage and people just stop whatever they're doing and state at him like " It's Baba Yaga "
"You got a f**kin pair on you, old man!"
Theon Greyjoy saying that line is never gonna get old.
It's subtle, but Aurelio is a sly fox. "Did you kill him or what?" If they actually managed to kill John, this wouldn't have been such a massive issue. Hell, if they didn't kill the dog this could have been resolved. However, that last line was all Aurelio needed to hear
Exactly! If the gang killed John after killing his dog, Aurelio probably wouldn't be so livid. He probably just say that "you just brushed off death REALLY close there". The same goes if they only stole John's car while leaving John and his dog alive (maybe Viggo can make a big apology and compensate John afterwards).
Once he heard what they did and John is still alive, he knows all Iosef did is provoking Death incarnation itself to descend upon them all.
Think if they had killed John he'd of actually changed the VIN or still declined, perhaps a little more politely and directed him to tell his father who he killed and swiped the car from? I bet Viggo would still be upset.
Given how close Aurelio was shown to be with John in Chapter 2, I wouldn't be surprised if Aurelio attended Hellen's funeral like Marcus did. Making Iosef's last line hit that much harder.
mmm
It's probably not too far fetched to think that had Iosef killed John when he had the chance, either Marcus or Caine(if he decided to come out of retirement for it) would've killed Iosef
I know many people have said in the comments on this scene it's just a dog, but there are many factors that are being missed. They broke into his house(you break into my house your not leaving alive), assaulted John, killed the last gift his wife gave him while he is mourning her, stole his car and on top of that Viggo broke his promise to John on leaving John alone period....it Viggo's fault his son was arrogant, stupid and didn't know who he was....so to Viggo's son....Taste the Rainbow!
Dayum homie said taste the rainbow I’m on the floor 🤣🤣🤣
I mean, I'll fuck someone up over most of these singularly. From my dead wife's respect to my dog to my car to invading my castle, any one of these would command a proper fuck about. Imo. I'm looking at my dog now and thinking about the time I loosened someone's teeth for saying they would steal him. Let alone the grieving of my wife. To be clear here, John in the story is the most justified murderer in literature lol.
We're not even speaking on how Viggo son dismantled decades worth of trust building in an assassin organization. Disturbing John's peace is enough.
Taste the rainbow I'm done 🤣🤣
people who said its just a dog have never had a dog in their life
You may have forgotten one thing. The silver car that had the baseball bat lodged in the windscreen, when John enters the garage, that was probably his wife's car that he understandably couldn't bear to part with. One more factor.
Man, John Leguizamo really killed this role. Randomly met him one time, super nice dude.
To be honest, I think the best piece of acting is right at 1:43, after Iosef says "We own you." You see Aurelio go through the understanding that he is, in fact, indebted to Viggo's gang. But then he puts on a brave face and confronts Iosef, saying that he 'works' with his father.
Aurreiio knew which horse to bet on.
I never noticed that John is already there before Viggo calls. The implication is that John is only about an hour behind Iosef - who doesn't even realise what he's done yet.
Iosef was already inches from the grim reaper.
Iosef was on borrowed time the moment Daisy took her last breath.
The difference between this scene and the scene where he gets his car back in JW2 shows how much John respects Aurelio and values their friendship.
I also enjoy how Aurelio has a chair ready for John.
Well... Between thinking what he gonna tell John about the car... He sure has ALOT of time to prepare =w=
Aurelio is old guard, he's like the front lobby guy at the hotel, he knows how things go and where the respect goes, he understands the world he's in and that's why he has a drink and stuff ready for John and stuff like that.
He certainly respects, John, and those exactly what happened to him and how he’s going to respond. His goal was to not become collateral damage.
He knew he was coming. He had a chair and another glass ready.
He knows John will come for him and the drinks were a sign if John will trust him or will kill him. Notice how John didn't take his offer at first maybe thinking it was spiked, but after hearing his side, John drank it all showing he trusts him.
Just to add to this a year or so later... its also notably one of the few times characters share a drink, and interactions end without violence. A recurring theme i believe thruout the series until maybe the 4th
After you realize the body count John piled up by the end of Chapter 4, you can feel what Aurelio felt when he saw that car, and also the weight of that, "Oh."
Heck, even just Chapter 1. Viggo built a massive, multi generational criminal empire on the foundation of all the murders John committed in order to secure his release from the organization. By the time John got ahold of Iosef, Viggo's organization was thoroughly decimated, with hundreds of loyal crew members dead and his legacy destroyed. Iosef would have done less damage to his father's organization with a nuclear bomb.
While I do like all of the John Wick movies, they really started to go too over the top after the second one. The first two felt grounded with a bit of mystery surrounding this society of assassins that you were really invested in, especially the first film. There was loads of action for sure, but there was also character development like the famous speech Vigo gives about John and why he is so terrifying. We stopped getting that in 3 and 4 and I think it was to the franchise's detriment. The action is great in all of them, but you can really feel how much they were trying to one-up the last movie and doing so didn't really benefit the films. While I'm glad I watched the other three in the series, I do think John Wick would have been a much more potent film as a stand-alone instead of becoming a franchise.
@@emberparadox458 1 and 4 were the best for me. 2/3 were mind-numbing.
4 felt a bit over the top for me, with everyone having armored clothing and using it like a shield all the time, especially John. I appreciate Keanu is getting older and might not be physically able to do the more demanding stuff that doesn't go into stuntman territory, but I wish they'd gone a different route. Constantly using the armored suit as a crutch felt like it was taking away from his ability as a master assassin and gun fighter. I still enjoyed the movie, but that facet of it really kind of stuck out for me. In the first movie it really showed how why he was so revered in his circles while still allowing him to not be 100% perfect. I really don't think any of the other three movies were able to top it.
@@emberparadox458 He's been using that crutch since the 2nd movie. The first one was a basic revenge plot with some stealth/tactical elements. All the other ones became shooting sports. I just found the 2 he-shes (Rose and Dillon) to be particularly obnoxious, the latter moreso.
These series pure greatness of how a John is portrayed as a just down right badass machine. Love it

Aurelio is throwing back shots expecting to die when John walks in.
Doesn't care if the kid shoots him because he assumes John will.
Yeah. He thought he was going to die. That’s why he sent most of his guys home.
John totally would, if he came to his shop and found his car there.
Thus, the argument.
Aurelio is honestly a badass.
John knew the car was gonna be there & Aurelio confirmed it was. Which means John accepted the respect from Aurelio for not willing to be involved despite being a part of Viggo's empire.
@@alibibeats2 everyone respects mr. anderson except theon greyjoy
RESPECT! This whole film revolves around the lack of it, or the ignorance of it by the young ones.
I love the background detail of Aurelio's crew grabbing tools the moment that guy points a gun at him. They know how scary Viggo's organisation is but they're not selling out Aurelio to Theon of all people.
I like how theyre casually having a drink on top of what looks to be a '70 charger
The trailer of this movie should have just been that scene. Don’t even see Keanu. “…oh”
Everyone’s butts would have been in those seats. Who’s John Wick, why is this dude scared, and why is killing the dog such a big deal?
(One awesome movie experience later)
Oh.
Aurelio was more than happy to lose a car than his life.
You can buy cars. You cannot buy your life back.
Smart. Told him the truth and gave him the ride.
In a situation like this, it's best not to lie
He knew what type of person Viggo was, had a gun to his head, and was still more concerned about John Wick.
*"Where'd you get that car?"*
Aurelio knew it's about to go down.
I don't even think viggo was mad at aurelio when he first called.
Cause he knows aurelio and he knows he would never hit his son without good reason
Pretty much. If he hit his son, it means serious shit is really serious.
Aka, you stole somthing from someone very dangerous, aka John, or someone from thr hightable elite.
Exactly. Anybody else, Viggo wouldn't have even bothered calling. Calling Aurelio and giving him a chance to explain himself shows the level of respect he has for him
This is one of the best side characters written. Just well written.
This never gets old. The sheer amount of emotions in one single: oh.
Aurelio when the scene starts: Ah sh*t, break's over.
Also Aurelio once he realizes whose car it is: Oh sh*t. You didn't.
_Evolution of Aurelio's Face in this Scene:_
1. Great... More work for daddy's boy.
2. Wait...
3. Wait a f*cking minute!
4. Is it John Wick's Car?!
5. Sh*t, it's the John Wick Car
6. Ok, maybe it's not that bad. Maybe he just stole it on the sly
7. Oh my gosh! Violent assault on John Wick!
8. AND KILLED HIS DOG!!
9. Get this stupid brat out of the shop!! Being around him can already make me suspicious!!
10. _*Punches the brainless brat_
11. I'd rather play my luck with an angry mob boss than John Wick!
12. Not all the salary or drinks in the world will make up for this...
Dude Epic!
Dude 😎😎😎😎 so true.
Love No. 9
Up until now I completely missed Aurelio's staff stopping what they were doing and looking at John Wick walk through their shop. It was subtle but pretty cool.
@@dr7660 It's the equivalent of the Doom Slayer walking into a gun shop.
What i love about this scene is that it sets up John so perfectly, showing that he is so well known that even those at the top of the pecking order watch themselves when it comes to Wick.
Imagine the amount of respect between Viggo and Aurelio when Viggo gives Aurelio the chance to explain himself before killing him and Aurelio gives the explanation.
That "Ohhhh" from Vigo is always soooo funny, u can like feel the gravity in his voice😂😂😂
Aurelio was underrated
He may not have kill people but the punch and the instant yes sir I did was awsome
Here’s a little tidbit of trivia that people may not know in reference to this scene. John Leguizamo auditioned twice for the role of Aurelio and finally got it despite the fact that he is a brain dead communist idiot leftist POS.
i love the added background detail with aurelio’s people, they immediately got ready fuck their shit up once the gun was drawn
That "oh" literally explains everything 😂
Then after telling Iosef about the dude. The kid is stupid enough to think he can take him. Hence the line, "Did he hear a fucking word I said?". Viggo gives him the biggest hug because he knows it will be the last time he may ever see him again while letting g him know just how much he screwed up and that Iosef will surely die
You know if Aurelio had just kept the car and then gave back to John when he got there. Probably wouldn't have been 4 kick ass movies though.
But the dog will never come back 🥴🤣🤣🤣🤣
Honestly I think this is by far the best John wick. The combination of seriousness and humor was brilliant
"And may I ask why?
"Well, uh, because he stole John Wick's car, sir, and uh... killed his dog."
"Understandable, have a pleasant evening."
Pretty much how that went down yea
It applies to everything in life. No matter how tough you are, how much of a badass, how strong you think you are
There’s always somebody tougher. Period.
Ye
Unless you're the toughest
Who's tougher than John Wick in this scenario??? 🤔😂🤣😂🤣
The toughest guy on the planet disagrees.
@@seamenfactory6360 you’ll never be the toughest forever, hence why someone stronger will always show up
Emilio was such a badass character. I think we need more of him.
Aurelio
3:45 "looks like i need a new, smarter son"😂😂
The fact that John can walk into an illegal chop shop and no one lifts a hand to stop him speaks volumes. He's known and no one wants any trouble.
