Money and good health helps. Meanwhile Jet Li who is exactly the same age as Yen (they attended the same martial arts school) looks like an 80-year-old man due to hyperthyroidism :P
Another way that he won is that in John Wick 3 he said he wanted to keep living so he could continue to remember his wife, Helen. After all of this, he pretty much ensured that everyone will remember her: Assassin 1: Why did John Wick go on his infamous rampage? I forget. Assassin 2: Well, it all started when his wife died and left him a puppy. And then someone murdered that puppy and stole his car. Assassin 3: Oh...
@@nyghtmoon even if it's just voice lines it'd be a great nod. They often record and film things that never get used, and in other similar situations are reused and rehashed to make use of them
That one-shot scene with the dragon breath gun was epic. Felt like a video game cutscene blended with cinema and insanity. I wouldn't mind a John Wick spin-off game, to be honest.
One of the hardest things about John Wick that no one ever talks about is that he just walks in the open, no disguises, no trying to hide. He welcomes all of the smoke. Also, this franchise will never end for me until Hugo Weaving comes out at the end as the true head of the High Table and saying, "Mr. Wick, welcome back, we missed you."
John Wick kill count over all 4 movies is approximately 439 kills. Almost 1 kill per minute of total runtime lol Unsurprisingly, JW 4 has the highest kill count, at about 140. Chapter 2 was 128, Chapter 3 was 94 and the original that started it all, 77. At least according to one site. Pretty insane.
Donnie Yen shines like the sun in this movie. He’s just one of those actors who thoroughly enjoys being on camera and, it doesn’t matter what scene he’s in, he’ll find a way to make it memorable. Idk if he’s always been like this but, all of his recent movies, he just steals every scene he’s in. Love that man so much!
The truth in combat Steven, it doesn't have to be pretty, it just has to work". I loved how Nikki was on verge of barfing but still had the awareness to throw out a " that's what she said".
The moral of John Wick has always been that violence begets violence, and once you start, it always escalates - so the ending credit scene was perfect, showing that as soon as you think you have peace, your violent actions create more violence towards you. And John dying was the only way they could end this series and keep the moral intact. This is an amazing series, every movie is fantastic in different ways, while the threads connecting them are strong and vibrant.
Easily one of the best action movie franchises ever. The action just got better n better, and to get legends like Donnie Yen, Hiroyuki Sanada n Scott Adkins was just epic. Keanu Reeves was born to play John Wick
Loved this franchise - it was like a contemporized and highly stylized samurai tale. Just beautiful. Loved the nod to The Warriors (1979) with the radio station.
The fat gangster guy is Scott Adkins.....a supremely badass martial artist/actor. He was wearing a fat suit for that role. He played a character called Yuri Boyka..pretty much the most badass (PURE FIGHTER)character of all time..
One of the reasons this franchise is so amazing is because it's made by people who really loves cinema, and not just action movies. It looks incredible an there's a lot of "nods" to other movies, but I never expected a nod to a scene of Lawrence of Arabia in an action movie.
I went on premier day and i barely got a ticket. The whole Crowd claped by the end. We were not few crying too. What a Masterpiece of a movie. Oh, and also, as a Chilean, i'm SO producto of what Marko Zaror did. He's such an amazing martial artist. I hope Hollywood will notice him more now.
Fun fact: John Wick Actually falls down those steps to make it more realistic. Even John was just tired. But he did it for us, the fans. John is known to suffer so the director made him do it. And when John looks at the watch and is tired, it's actually how Keanu looks in real life. But yeah, Keanu deserved that break.
If you didn't notice, when Winston puts his hand on John's tombstone he has a tattoo on his hand that is the mark of I believe the same family that John belonged to
I just wanted to thank the both of you for making my days a little more merrier. Not only is your content hilarious and so much fun, I absolutely aspire to being a part of a relationship someday that encaptures your guys' heartfelt authenticity. It's rare nowadays to see people being in healthy love and making it work. Thankyou for all you do and for being who you are. Love, Lindy from New Mexico
There’s a theory floating around the internet that Winston was John’s father in law. That would explain their closeness and his words over his tombstone at the end. Winston had renounced to having a relationship with his daughter much like Sophia and the blind hitman, in order to protect her. Don’t know if it’s true, but it’d make for a great backstory.
I personally think he’s John’s actual dad……but I could see the father in law possibility. I’m hoping the spinoff series Continental will show a young Winston fall in love with John’s mom…..🤷♂️
So happy he said this movie franchise has the best action choreography ever with the exception of The Raid, The Raid finally gets the recognition it deserves!
I love that the ending is open to interpretation as to whether John is alive or not. For example, John was shot in the same spots as where he shot the doc in Chapter 3. Also, his doggo looks off to the side when they're at the gravesite as if he's reacting to seeing John. That being said, I prefer to believe that John is at peace and with his best friend, Helen.
1) The opening scene with the Bowery King is from Dante and is Lucifer descending into hell (the gates of Hell have "abandon hope, all ye who enter here"). Metaphorically, he is opening the gates to hell and releasing John Wick on their common enemies. 2) With the Osaka scenes (choreography, lighting, and music) we now know who needs to make a live-action Cyberpunk movie. 3) The crazy thing about Donnie Yen's swordsmanship here is that it is NOT sped up with digital effects. He actually can stab that fast.
Of all the amazing action and crazy shit going on in this movie, my favorite scene is the church scene before the third act between John and Caine, it’s such a great scene that just felt so…human, it’s about two old friends facing their inevitability together, even if it’s the first time we see these two meets, we still feel the years of brotherhood from their interactions
Can we acknowledge how kick butt Cain is without a stupid he can sense everything ability. He clearly fights blind. Swings wildly and fires in a line rather than just one spot
I watched it in the cinema as I had unfortunately missed the others there. JW 4 was one of the best experiences I've ever had in a cinema. Every scene I thought wasn't going to be topped and it just gets topped again. Chad Stahelski really put his time, effort, heart and soul into these movies and made sure he upped the ante each time. Props to Keanu too he was 57 when this was shot and thats just ridiculous to me.
What always makes me wonder, and this may be a reach, is if Winston was John Wicks dad. He is the only one who calls him Jonathan which most parents use the real name and a not a shorted or Nick name for their children. He puts his life and everything he has on the line for him for no apparent reason other than what friendship? Doubt it. He also says rest easy my son at the end of the movie. Just a thought 😎
Love Steven's "never judge a book by its cover" comment about how Killa the heavyset German was able to fight John Wick. For anyone who doesn't know the actor who played Killa, I'm sure such a big dude having such fighting chops was a surprise. But for anyone who knows that Killa was portrayed by Scott Adkins in a fat suit, there were no surprises. I highly recommend that N&S React checks out some Scott Adkins movies. Avengement and Undisputed 2, 3, and 4 are must-watch films for the fight choreography alone. Also, Close Range is just non-stop action, and Accident Man 1 & 2 are fantastic fun. Scott Adkins is one of the best fighters in action movies, period. He's studied many forms of martial arts, but his acrobatics and kicking skills are second to none. It's a shame he's only just being discovered by the masses now. He also does a TH-cam channel called The Art of Action where he interviews legendary and B movie action stars. Keanu Reeves was interviewed about a month ago, if anyone wants to check it out!
The overhead view building fight with the 'dragon breath' shotgun was worth the price of admission. They had to have the dragon breath shells so you could track Wick moving. The scene seems to be one-shot but I think there are some places where he goes through a doorway that would have been easy cuts (no idea, I didn't look at it frame by frame but one of them looked like a cut). But yeah... best scene of the movie.
@@NikkiStevenReact YES! I have been waiting for you guys to react to this! I absolutely love you guy’s reaction to these movies, I from time to time go back and rewatch the others cause Nikki’s commentaries cracks me up.🤣🤣
What I hated about the movie is how John Wick came off as invincible & the fact that he fell from a 4 story building and then walked away like nothing happened......
@@tamidobi856 I mean, it’s either take leap of faith or get shot up and die. It also was actually from the 3rd floor. Don’t forget John was shot off the roof of The Continental and walked away from that.🤷🏻
Have loved them all! Sure, he was becoming a caricature of himself but still... The Club, Roundabout and over heard dragons breath shotgun scenes were most incredible along with the soundtrack! So much so 3 trips to seeing it in IMAX were required. ❤❤❤
Wonderfully done. He was feared by all. Known as the Baba Yaga or Death’s Emissary. To the few that knew him he was a friend, to Winston a son, but above all else he was remembered as a Loving Husband in the end. RIP John Wick
39:07 You probably remember Natalie Tena from either Game of Thrones or Harry Potter. She had recurring roles in both. There was also one episode of Mandalorian I believe in the first season.
Nikki and Steven's reactions never disappoint. Greatest action movie that I've ever seen, this franchise is legendary. The cinematography and choreography are gorgeous. Keanu Reeves is a national treasure.
I still love the fact they put in the homage to 'The Warriors'. About lost my mind when that scene came up. Was one of my favorite films growing up and used to always catch it on TNT.
Tracker almost has a consistent smile on his face, this is a man that loves his job. There are a few moments when you get the thought "are they being self aware" because John is very much in a live action videogame, this movie is very gamified. Then there's a crazy fight scene in the road and it reaaaaly feels like they know it, and then a little bit later the camera does something super unique (for movies) and cool and just about every gamer on the planet has seen this angle before and that clinches it, they absolutely know this is Saint's Row 4 and the rules are out the window.
Lance will truly be missed. This movie was freaking amazing it was an anime/videogame roller coaster from beginning to end. I like to think Mr. Nobody is an actual "Nobody" like the movie "Nobody". They can bring John back if they want or do some spinoffs with the other characters Cane, Akira, Mr. Nobody. John's final scene was such a Cowboy Bebop, the anime one, type of moment. If you have seen the anime you know what I mean. Man I loved this movie.
The whole race against time in France scenes with the DJ is actually a homage to the movie named The Warriors, which came out in 1979. Also, that DJ has targeted the gang in every announcement and backed it up with a decent song.
@@Parallax-3D That's true as hell brother. His character's name was Luther in the movie and he was leading the gang named The Rogues. He was the one to plot The Warriors for the killing at the Van Cortland Park.
The radio bit, was taken from the movie The Warriors...there was a lady DJ telling all the gangs the update on the Warriors progress on getting home to Brooklyn. Before that there is a movie called Vanishing Point, where a blind Black Soul DJ was telling a fugitive running from the police what was going on, on air.
What a cast in this one, 2 and 3 had some fun appearances but this one is such a banger. Donnie Yen, Skarsgard, Clancy Brown and my personal favorite Hiroyuki Sanada. Dudes such a G
Director Chad Stahelski is a movie buff, and as such, has taken inspiration from several titles for John Wick 4, including the "I am Groot" piece of dialogue said by a certain MCU tree in Guardians of the Galaxy. Originally, "I am Klaus" was simply supposed to be stand-in dialogue and changed later once the part was cast, but Stahelski thought it would be more interesting to leave the dialogue as is with the explanation, "I’ve met James Gunn and I think he’s a hilarious guy, so we’ll just tip off ‘I am Groot’.” (via Letterbox). Not only does it work as an homage to Groot, but it also makes Klaus just as distinct in the John Wick franchise.
1:09:45 Those nun-chucks. I thought it was HILARIOUS how he was just slapping the ever loving shit out of one guy like the naughty, red headed stepchild with them.
The best action movie ever for me. Watched it in theatres. It was an amazing experience. The dragon shot scene is the best ever scene I ever saw in the cinema. 10/10 movie 🔥
Fun reaction to all of the John Wick movies, thanks! You might check out the Ip Man movies with Donnie Yen at some point. The dragons breath scene was one of the best fight sequences in the series. BTW, Dragon’s Breath are a pyrotechnic type of shotgun shell.
The chick who repunched John's ticket was also in Game of Thrones. She was a Wildling who helped the two stark boys survive. Also the whole radio girl was used in that 70's movie The Warriors.
Saw this when it first came out in theaters but I'm really glad I got to enjoy it with you guys. This was AWESOME! Best one yet. Oh and the penguin looking guy is Scott Adkins...one of the best martial artist to do it on screen. Glad he got his shot to be in this
The actor you don't remember the name is *Hiroyuki Sanada* ; at 11 he started training with Sonny Chiba in the Japan Action Club. Also played in the Ring movie, Rush Hour 3 (Kenji). And played my childhood hero Hayato Gen in the late 70's TV serie Ginga Taisen (imagine a veeeery low budget Japanese StarWars with ninjas replacing jedi/sith, a space fairy in a sailing boat shaped spaceship, society organised mostly in villages, villains behaving like some in WWII, all spaceships looking dusty and old (giving them an antique cachet, and emphases that the good people can only fight the tyrany with what they find, and absolutely no external backup (only the space fairy who can herself be in danger sometimes)))
The ending of this film could have many different outcomes that we may not be aware of. Is he actually dead? He might not be. All we know is, John Wick 5 is in production and Keanu is back. He's also co-starring alongside the ballerina from the third film for another movie and he may also appear in the Continental miniseries too. Keanu Reeves has mentioned that he is willing to continue being John Wick a few more times. This movie may depict his ending, but there's definitely more stories that they have yet to show us of the Baba Yaga.
Dead or not it was a nice ending. Now I do ponder if we get a Cain story. Would love to see it as well as Mr. Nobody. These 2 characters where sett up and left open to develop their own story.
My question: what franchise in the future could ever top these fight scenes, settings, & of course, Keanu Reeves? For me, it's once in a lifetime. Good luck to future generations because this is how you do it.
I think Chad Stahelski could pull it off. He is now experienced as well as his team, as much as I love Keanu Reeves, imagine what could be done with a young actual martial artist and how they could go even further with the fight scenes.
You could literally say that at any moment in time, about any action film or franchise that is good. People were saying the same things until an unknown relatively small movie called John Wick was came out. Somebody will top it, that's the nature of progress and I can't wait. Most won't, but someone will raise the bar.
@@FalconCooper I think Sam Hargrave is better, to be honest. But it's a preference thing. "Gun fu" versus whatever Extraction was. They're both the best in the game right now.
The radio DJ in Paris was a nice nod to The Warriors from 1979, which starred the guy who played Charlie, the head of the clean-up crew from the Wick franchise: "WARRIORS… COME LUT TO PLAY-AAAY!!" Classic.
If anyone is sad that this series is seemingly at an end (unless they decide to do a John Wick Prequel series or something which I don't think is likely, but also not impossible) all you have to remember is one thing; I am Klaus... I am Klaus!
Interesting thing about arrows: While Kevlar body armor is capable in various configurations of stopping most pistol and some rifle rounds, an arrow (especially one with a broad head tip) can usually penetrate the kevlar enough to make a fatal wound.
I’m pretty sure John is dead (I hope), but we didn’t really get a hard confirmation of it. We did get loads of foreshadowing throughout the movie though (being asked what to put on his tombstone, him eventually giving an answer, him saying hello to the dead, etc.) and the way the 2 closest people to him throughout this series talk about him like he’s actually dead makes me think he is. It also makes some sense because he gets to be with his wife.
The actor that plays the big guy Killa was in a fat suit and he is a professional martial arts expert named Scott Adkins he's in a big handful of martial arts movies really friendly and cool guy you two should watch some of his movies sometimes especially avengement and Ninja you two would love those movies also love your guys reaction as always ps the guy that told john and cane they were free is Clancy Brown the voice of mr. Krabs from SpongeBob
John definitely isn’t dead, as it’s now been confirmed by the studio that John Wick 5 is in early development 😁 lol also on peacock there will be a 3 part prequel show called The Continental, about young Winston in the 1970s. And a spin off called Ballerina with Ana de Armas, set between 3 and 4. About a ballerina assassin from the Ruska Roma group trying to avenge the death of her parents.
Fun Fact. That little wrist move that flicks the empty mags out was thought up by Keanu. He showed it to the director, he loved it and it ended up in the movies.
There is symmetry to the John wick films. JW 1: John retires-John comes back; JW2: John haunts the last every family member/associates of that russian oligarch- John runs from the assassins; JW3: John leaves NYC- John comes back to NYC; JW4: start of the film everything is before or during sunset- end of the film everything is before or during sunrise. The metaphorical Dante infero and Dante Paradiso.
I have never been as physically exhausted in a movie theater as I was for John Wick Chapter 4! During the entire 3rd act we go from one of the most intense car chase / car fighting scene, to one of the best shot action sequences I have ever seen during the abandoned building fight scene. I felt my fingers go into the same crab claw shape when I play video games on pure reflex when it started to look like so many LITERALLY over the top games I grew up on! THEN we get the insane stair fight, which every single step John fell down I practically felt just watching (and I’m starting to believe that both Keanu Reeves and John Wick are actually part Saiyan because every time he gets beaten to rear death he comes back stronger and deadlier). Then we finally get to the duel and thank god It was long enough in the end that we saw the look on the Marquis’s face when he realized he fucked up!🤣🤣🤣 As for the ending, it’s recently been announced that they are working on John Wick Chapter 5, plus I already believed he survived because the perfect retirement is where everyone thinks you’re dead.
Let's honor John Wick for love too. This character showed us true love again in movies, in a time that hook up culture is destroying our world. He only thinks about his love and everything is about her. He only loves her even after her death. He mentioned I wanna live just to remember her. He doesn't go around and pick another love. because true love is one. he only thinks about his wife. that's something important to show to ppl these days. which is true love.

Alive or dead John still won. The High Table will forever live in fear knowing that a man like John Wick existed.
In cruder translation, John just said "Fuck You" to the High Table
Bro john wick didn't die lol it was confirmed that there will be 5 he just fainted
'It's just a flesh wound.'
Yup...
The High Table hate there's holy man like Wick existed and become the new Living Legend.
Another way that he won is that in John Wick 3 he said he wanted to keep living so he could continue to remember his wife, Helen. After all of this, he pretty much ensured that everyone will remember her:
Assassin 1: Why did John Wick go on his infamous rampage? I forget.
Assassin 2: Well, it all started when his wife died and left him a puppy. And then someone murdered that puppy and stole his car.
Assassin 3: Oh...
Knowing Lance passed recently really makes this appearance bitter sweet.
I cried a little when he died. Both the actor and the character. RIP.
Supposedly, Lance filmed scenes as Charon for the Ballerina spinoff. So we may see both again, one last time.

That one-shot scene with the dragon breath gun was epic. Felt like a video game cutscene blended with cinema and insanity. I wouldn't mind a John Wick spin-off game, to be honest.
It was taken in fact from a video game called “Hong Kong Massacre”
Or Hotline Miami

They are currently developing a John Wick game
HONG KONG MASSACRE BABY!
One of the hardest things about John Wick that no one ever talks about is that he just walks in the open, no disguises, no trying to hide. He welcomes all of the smoke.
Also, this franchise will never end for me until Hugo Weaving comes out at the end as the true head of the High Table and saying, "Mr. Wick, welcome back, we missed you."
"Smith..."

Scott adkins playing killa has to be my favorite part of the movie, glad to finally see him in a big time movie like this.
well deserved. a shame we probably won't get accident man 3 now though.
Baba yaga vs Yori boyka
The radio DJ sequence is an homage to the 1979 film THE WARRIORS, which you should totally react to!
Charlie the head of the cleaning crew from JW1 was in “The Warriors” as Luther, the main antagonist.
Actor’s name is David Patrick Kelly.
The moral of John Wick has always been that violence begets violence, and once you start, it always escalates - so the ending credit scene was perfect, showing that as soon as you think you have peace, your violent actions create more violence towards you.

I went into this movie completely blind to avoid any spoilers and Bill Skarsgard's performance was so chilling. That whole family is so damn talented
The fat gangster guy is Scott Adkins.....a supremely badass martial artist/actor. He was wearing a fat suit for that role. He played a character called Yuri Boyka..pretty much the most badass (PURE FIGHTER)character of all time..
He is the most complete fighter in the world.
John wick - He grieved

Watching riders on horseback coming out of (or riding into) the silhouette of the sun will always be cool.
Charon's line to Winston before they meet the Marquis and his death hit extra hard given Lance Reddick's death just before this movie's release.

Rina Sawayama killed it for this being her acting debut. I want. MORE.
I agree. She was just excellent.
Yeah, the whole Skarsgård family is amazing. Such talent under one name!
There’s a theory floating around the internet that Winston was John’s father in
law. That would explain their closeness and his words over his tombstone at the end. Winston had renounced to having a relationship with his daughter much like Sophia and the blind hitman, in order to protect her. Don’t know if it’s true, but it’d make for a great backstory.
I personally think he’s John’s actual dad……but I could see the father in law possibility. I’m hoping the spinoff series Continental will show a young Winston fall in love with John’s mom…..🤷♂️
Winston was neither. John is an orphan from Belarus.
The closest theory is more like a foster father, within the organization under The Table.
So happy he said this movie franchise has the best action choreography ever with the exception of The Raid, The Raid finally gets the recognition it deserves!
One of the best action films every made. I hope Donnie Yen's character gets that spin-off that he wants. Rest In Paradise to Mr..Lance Riddick

It's extra sad because Lance Reddick is really gone. RIP Mr. Concierge
I love that the ending is open to interpretation as to whether John is alive or not. For example, John was shot in the same spots as where he shot the doc in Chapter 3. Also, his doggo looks off to the side when they're at the gravesite as if he's reacting to seeing John. That being said, I prefer to believe that John is at peace and with his best friend, Helen.
And Daisy 😢

1) The opening scene with the Bowery King is from Dante and is Lucifer descending into hell (the gates of Hell have "abandon hope, all ye who enter here"). Metaphorically, he is opening the gates to hell and releasing John Wick on their common enemies.
2) With the Osaka scenes (choreography, lighting, and music) we now know who needs to make a live-action Cyberpunk movie.
3) The crazy thing about Donnie Yen's swordsmanship here is that it is NOT sped up with digital effects. He actually can stab that fast.
Of all the amazing action and crazy shit going on in this movie, my favorite scene is the church scene before the third act between John and Caine, it’s such a great scene that just felt so…human, it’s about two old friends facing their inevitability together, even if it’s the first time we see these two meets, we still feel the years of brotherhood from their interactions
Can we acknowledge how kick butt Cain is without a stupid he can sense everything ability. He clearly fights blind. Swings wildly and fires in a line rather than just one spot
This movie blew my mind. And I have to say that everyone did a fantastic job. Especially Scott Atkins as Killa, totally knocked it out of the park
Unexpected but so so good!!
I watched it in the cinema as I had unfortunately missed the others there. JW 4 was one of the best experiences I've ever had in a cinema. Every scene I thought wasn't going to be topped and it just gets topped again. Chad Stahelski really put his time, effort, heart and soul into these movies and made sure he upped the ante each time. Props to Keanu too he was 57 when this was shot and thats just ridiculous to me.
What always makes me wonder, and this may be a reach, is if Winston was John Wicks dad. He is the only one who calls him Jonathan which most parents use the real name and a not a shorted or Nick name for their children. He puts his life and everything he has on the line for him for no apparent reason other than what friendship? Doubt it. He also says rest easy my son at the end of the movie. Just a thought 😎
Johnathan isn't his full name
I think that him being his father in law makes more sense
Love Steven's "never judge a book by its cover" comment about how Killa the heavyset German was able to fight John Wick. For anyone who doesn't know the actor who played Killa, I'm sure such a big dude having such fighting chops was a surprise. But for anyone who knows that Killa was portrayed by Scott Adkins in a fat suit, there were no surprises. I highly recommend that N&S React checks out some Scott Adkins movies. Avengement and Undisputed 2, 3, and 4 are must-watch films for the fight choreography alone. Also, Close Range is just non-stop action, and Accident Man 1 & 2 are fantastic fun. Scott Adkins is one of the best fighters in action movies, period. He's studied many forms of martial arts, but his acrobatics and kicking skills are second to none. It's a shame he's only just being discovered by the masses now. He also does a TH-cam channel called The Art of Action where he interviews legendary and B movie action stars. Keanu Reeves was interviewed about a month ago, if anyone wants to check it out!
The overhead view building fight with the 'dragon breath' shotgun was worth the price of admission. They had to have the dragon breath shells so you could track Wick moving. The scene seems to be one-shot but I think there are some places where he goes through a doorway that would have been easy cuts (no idea, I didn't look at it frame by frame but one of them looked like a cut). But yeah... best scene of the movie.
That was absolutely incredible
@@NikkiStevenReact YES! I have been waiting for you guys to react to this! I absolutely love you guy’s reaction to these movies, I from time to time go back and rewatch the others cause Nikki’s commentaries cracks me up.🤣🤣
What I hated about the movie is how John Wick came off as invincible & the fact that he fell from a 4 story building and then walked away like nothing happened......
@@tamidobi856 He was limping but ok that's the least they can show you
It's a movie after all
@@tamidobi856 I mean, it’s either take leap of faith or get shot up and die. It also was actually from the 3rd floor. Don’t forget John was shot off the roof of The Continental and walked away from that.🤷🏻
Have loved them all!
Sure, he was becoming a caricature of himself but still...
The Club, Roundabout and over heard dragons breath shotgun scenes were most incredible along with the soundtrack!
So much so 3 trips to seeing it in IMAX were required.
❤❤❤
Wonderfully done. He was feared by all. Known as the Baba Yaga or Death’s Emissary. To the few that knew him he was a friend, to Winston a son, but above all else he was remembered as a Loving Husband in the end.
RIP John Wick
My favorite was the oner in an abandoned building and it was an aerial shot from room to room! So freaking good!
Its awesome that big dude plays as scott adkins. A really good martial artist fighter.
For those wondering why the bow & arrows worked so well, most (soft-type) ballistic armor does not work well against stabbing/piercing attacks.
The warriors reference was potentially one of the best things about this movie
39:07 You probably remember Natalie Tena from either Game of Thrones or Harry Potter. She had recurring roles in both. There was also one episode of Mandalorian I believe in the first season.
Thank you! She looked so familiar to me as well but couldn't point out where from.
Laurence fishburne reciting Dantés inferno made me so happy
Nikki and Steven's reactions never disappoint. Greatest action movie that I've ever seen, this franchise is legendary. The cinematography and choreography are gorgeous. Keanu Reeves is a national treasure.
CLANCY BROWN:
(Harbinger) "Under the old laws, only one can survive."
(Kurgan) "There can be only one!"
I still love the fact they put in the homage to 'The Warriors'. About lost my mind when that scene came up. Was one of my favorite films growing up and used to always catch it on TNT.
Tracker almost has a consistent smile on his face, this is a man that loves his job.
There are a few moments when you get the thought "are they being self aware" because John is very much in a live action videogame, this movie is very gamified. Then there's a crazy fight scene in the road and it reaaaaly feels like they know it, and then a little bit later the camera does something super unique (for movies) and cool and just about every gamer on the planet has seen this angle before and that clinches it, they absolutely know this is Saint's Row 4 and the rules are out the window.
I just love Nikki's reactions she literally says the same things I said when I watched these movies ❤
Bill Skarsgard also played pennywise
Fun fact Clancy Brown (the Harbinger from the High table) is the voice of Mr Krabs
Also the dog barks came from me. Proud to be of service ✊🏽
Nikki literally said that when they show his face at the beginning 😂😂
yes its mentioned in the video, maybe watch before commenting?
I must of missed that. I only heard them asking if he was a Skarsgard.
Lance will truly be missed. This movie was freaking amazing it was an anime/videogame roller coaster from beginning to end. I like to think Mr. Nobody is an actual "Nobody" like the movie "Nobody". They can bring John back if they want or do some spinoffs with the other characters Cane, Akira, Mr. Nobody. John's final scene was such a Cowboy Bebop, the anime one, type of moment. If you have seen the anime you know what I mean. Man I loved this movie.
I saw this film in IMAX. It was pure adrenaline and madness, and I loved every minute of it. Great reaction! 👍🏿
The whole race against time in France scenes with the DJ is actually a homage to the movie named The Warriors, which came out in 1979. Also, that DJ has targeted the gang in every announcement and backed it up with a decent song.
Fun fact: Charlie, the head of the cleaning crew from JW1, was the main antagonist in “The Warriors.” The actor’s name is David Patrick Kelly.
@@Parallax-3D That's true as hell brother. His character's name was Luther in the movie and he was leading the gang named The Rogues. He was the one to plot The Warriors for the killing at the Van Cortland Park.
The action in this movie is non stop, but it when it gets to the dialogue, that's when you take your restroom break.
the story is nonsense of course but the dialogue is usually pretty good.
@@eighteen-naked-cowboys "YeEEeEeAaAAhh!" There's 40% of the dialogue for ya.
The radio bit, was taken from the movie The Warriors...there was a lady DJ telling all the gangs the update on the Warriors progress on getting home to Brooklyn. Before that there is a movie called Vanishing Point, where a blind Black Soul DJ was telling a fugitive running from the police what was going on, on air.
What a cast in this one, 2 and 3 had some fun appearances but this one is such a banger. Donnie Yen, Skarsgard, Clancy Brown and my personal favorite Hiroyuki Sanada. Dudes such a G
What a movie! Glad you guys enjoyed it as much as I did. Had to go see it in theaters tho.
Director Chad Stahelski is a movie buff, and as such, has taken inspiration from several titles for John Wick 4, including the "I am Groot" piece of dialogue said by a certain MCU tree in Guardians of the Galaxy. Originally, "I am Klaus" was simply supposed to be stand-in dialogue and changed later once the part was cast, but Stahelski thought it would be more interesting to leave the dialogue as is with the explanation, "I’ve met James Gunn and I think he’s a hilarious guy, so we’ll just tip off ‘I am Groot’.” (via Letterbox). Not only does it work as an homage to Groot, but it also makes Klaus just as distinct in the John Wick franchise.
1:09:45 Those nun-chucks. I thought it was HILARIOUS how he was just slapping the ever loving shit out of one guy like the naughty, red headed stepchild with them.
I've been waiting for your reaction ever since the movie came out now it's finally here 🎉🤠😁
The best action movie ever for me. Watched it in theatres. It was an amazing experience. The dragon shot scene is the best ever scene I ever saw in the cinema. 10/10 movie 🔥
The line that says "I know a guy that knows a guy" and the reference with the dragons breath is from the movie Constantine.
Like i said before, when Winston said farewell my son, was John Winston's son or maybe his son in law? John Wick 5 is in the works!
32:05 "I am Klaus" is the most funny part in this movie 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fun reaction to all of the John Wick movies, thanks! You might check out the Ip Man movies with Donnie Yen at some point. The dragons breath scene was one of the best fight sequences in the series. BTW, Dragon’s Breath are a pyrotechnic type of shotgun shell.
Scott Adkins is in the house, what a John Wick throwdown.
The concierge played by Lance Reddick also played the LAPD chief in the Bosch series.
A series well worth watching also!
my fav character of his is also the 1st one I saw him as... Broyles from the Fringe series
The chick who repunched John's ticket was also in Game of Thrones. She was a Wildling who helped the two stark boys survive. Also the whole radio girl was used in that 70's movie The Warriors.
Saw this when it first came out in theaters but I'm really glad I got to enjoy it with you guys. This was AWESOME! Best one yet. Oh and the penguin looking guy is Scott Adkins...one of the best martial artist to do it on screen. Glad he got his shot to be in this
You asked about a kill count?
Chapter 1: 77
Chapter 2: 128
Chapter 3: 94
Chapter 4: 140
Overall: 439
So about a hundred more than Jack Bauer...
Does that make Kieffer and Keanu the most lethal Canadians ever?
Darn incredible! Donnie Yen was just fantastic.
The actor you don't remember the name is *Hiroyuki Sanada* ; at 11 he started training with Sonny Chiba in the Japan Action Club. Also played in the Ring movie, Rush Hour 3 (Kenji). And played my childhood hero Hayato Gen in the late 70's TV serie Ginga Taisen (imagine a veeeery low budget Japanese StarWars with ninjas replacing jedi/sith, a space fairy in a sailing boat shaped spaceship, society organised mostly in villages, villains behaving like some in WWII, all spaceships looking dusty and old (giving them an antique cachet, and emphases that the good people can only fight the tyrany with what they find, and absolutely no external backup (only the space fairy who can herself be in danger sometimes)))
The ending of this film could have many different outcomes that we may not be aware of. Is he actually dead? He might not be.
All we know is, John Wick 5 is in production and Keanu is back. He's also co-starring alongside the ballerina from the third film for another movie and he may also appear in the Continental miniseries too. Keanu Reeves has mentioned that he is willing to continue being John Wick a few more times. This movie may depict his ending, but there's definitely more stories that they have yet to show us of the Baba Yaga.
Hiroyuki Sanada is the japanese actor Steven. I'm glad he's getting more exposure in Western cinema.
Sunshine, mortal kombat,last samurai, bullet train, army of the dead,westworld, the guy gets around.
Dead or not it was a nice ending. Now I do ponder if we get a Cain story. Would love to see it as well as Mr. Nobody. These 2 characters where sett up and left open to develop their own story.
The Dragon’s breath John used in that scene was incredible. It looked like the gameplay from Hotline Miami 2.
My question: what franchise in the future could ever top these fight scenes, settings, & of course, Keanu Reeves? For me, it's once in a lifetime. Good luck to future generations because this is how you do it.
I think Chad Stahelski could pull it off. He is now experienced as well as his team, as much as I love Keanu Reeves, imagine what could be done with a young actual martial artist and how they could go even further with the fight scenes.
You could literally say that at any moment in time, about any action film or franchise that is good. People were saying the same things until an unknown relatively small movie called John Wick was came out. Somebody will top it, that's the nature of progress and I can't wait. Most won't, but someone will raise the bar.
@@FalconCooper I think Sam Hargrave is better, to be honest. But it's a preference thing. "Gun fu" versus whatever Extraction was. They're both the best in the game right now.
The radio DJ in Paris was a nice nod to The Warriors from 1979, which starred the guy who played Charlie, the head of the clean-up crew from the Wick franchise: "WARRIORS… COME LUT TO PLAY-AAAY!!" Classic.
If anyone is sad that this series is seemingly at an end (unless they decide to do a John Wick Prequel series or something which I don't think is likely, but also not impossible) all you have to remember is one thing;
I am Klaus... I am Klaus!
I am Klaus🐗
@@ndumisomsomi9053 I am Klaus...
Several spin offs confirmed and a wick 5 is in discussions
@@crankfastle8138 oh ok that's actually pretty cool
@@de606returns6 I think, Donny yen is coming back, there is a series being worked on with ana de armas I believe.
Thank you guys. I love y’all’s reviews and reaction. Keep it up👍👍👍
La ame tanto que la vi 5 veces en el cine 😊😊😊😊😊
Interesting thing about arrows: While Kevlar body armor is capable in various configurations of stopping most pistol and some rifle rounds, an arrow (especially one with a broad head tip) can usually penetrate the kevlar enough to make a fatal wound.
I’m pretty sure John is dead (I hope), but we didn’t really get a hard confirmation of it. We did get loads of foreshadowing throughout the movie though (being asked what to put on his tombstone, him eventually giving an answer, him saying hello to the dead, etc.) and the way the 2 closest people to him throughout this series talk about him like he’s actually dead makes me think he is. It also makes some sense because he gets to be with his wife.
Guys, you definately have to watch Undisputed 2,3,4 with Scott Adkins (the poker guy). Great fighting scenes in there
The actor that plays the big guy Killa was in a fat suit and he is a professional martial arts expert named Scott Adkins he's in a big handful of martial arts movies really friendly and cool guy you two should watch some of his movies sometimes especially avengement and Ninja you two would love those movies also love your guys reaction as always ps the guy that told john and cane they were free is Clancy Brown the voice of mr. Krabs from SpongeBob
John definitely isn’t dead, as it’s now been confirmed by the studio that John Wick 5 is in early development 😁 lol also on peacock there will be a 3 part prequel show called The Continental, about young Winston in the 1970s. And a spin off called Ballerina with Ana de Armas, set between 3 and 4. About a ballerina assassin from the Ruska Roma group trying to avenge the death of her parents.
I think Cain maybe had something to do with Wicks disappearance after he said “you owe me one” at the end
Fun Fact. That little wrist move that flicks the empty mags out was thought up by Keanu. He showed it to the director, he loved it and it ended up in the movies.
Such a amazing franchise, absolutely love the reactions 😂😂 hearing the "thats what she said" while almost puking killed me lol hilarious
There is symmetry to the John wick films. JW 1: John retires-John comes back; JW2: John haunts the last every family member/associates of that russian oligarch- John runs from the assassins; JW3: John leaves NYC- John comes back to NYC; JW4: start of the film everything is before or during sunset- end of the film everything is before or during sunrise. The metaphorical Dante infero and Dante Paradiso.
I have never been as physically exhausted in a movie theater as I was for John Wick Chapter 4!
During the entire 3rd act we go from one of the most intense car chase / car fighting scene, to one of the best shot action sequences I have ever seen during the abandoned building fight scene. I felt my fingers go into the same crab claw shape when I play video games on pure reflex when it started to look like so many LITERALLY over the top games I grew up on!
THEN we get the insane stair fight, which every single step John fell down I practically felt just watching (and I’m starting to believe that both Keanu Reeves and John Wick are actually part Saiyan because every time he gets beaten to rear death he comes back stronger and deadlier). Then we finally get to the duel and thank god It was long enough in the end that we saw the look on the Marquis’s face when he realized he fucked up!🤣🤣🤣
As for the ending, it’s recently been announced that they are working on John Wick Chapter 5, plus I already believed he survived because the perfect retirement is where everyone thinks you’re dead.
Let's honor John Wick for love too. This character showed us true love again in movies, in a time that hook up culture is destroying our world.
He only thinks about his love and everything is about her. He only loves her even after her death. He mentioned I wanna live just to remember her. He doesn't go around and pick another love. because true love is one. he only thinks about his wife. that's something important to show to ppl these days. which is true love.
This is the best reaction I've seen to this movie! A well deserved new sub
They are currently developing a 5th movie so Steven’s theory about John not really being dead is Iikely.
