Saw it last night. Haven't decided if it was better than 2 or not.
Guessing there will be a run on MPX carbines.
Not sure about the 365. Threaded barrel?
Wish I could afford all those STI mags though.

We just got home from seeing it. I haven't seen the first two. Girlfriend has seen all three and she loved this one too.

The producers have hacked my internet history.

Just this past week I've googled karambits, wakazashi swords, and autoloading shotguns.

Saw it yesterday. Pretty good. Halle just gets better looking with age. It'll be interesting to see if this causes a surge in 9mm Major.

But a TT STI 2011 Combat Master for $4000? Nope.

Saw it on Thursday.

IMHO, it is better than 2, but not quite as good as the first. Still, a very entertaining movie.

So I liked it ....BUT..

It was 100 percent on the throttle. There isn't any character development, there is no drama. It is just action, followed by action with a few corny lines and jokes.

However, it is great action.


I don't see how the movie would make any sense if you haven't watched the first two, because it starts and ends without any explanation. You absolutely can not understand a thing if you haven't seen the previous movie.

Also, it clearly ends with the understanding that more are to come, as nothing is truly resolved.

It's like eating a 5 course meal and starting at the second course and ending at the 3rd.

Still, the action scenes are fantastic, which is 90 Percent of the movie.

I can't disagree with your analysis -- and I can't help but wonder where Winston's interests lie at the end of the movie -- but... How long 'til JW4?! Cool

Saw it. I like it quite a bit though I'm not sure about ranking. I love 1 and it's way above 2-3. I think my concern is that the world is getting too big. I kinda liked the idea of a world within our world and it's starting to feel a bit like an alternate reality.

None the less a very good and well done movie I enjoyed.

I need to see this movie a second time in the theater, though I might bring ear plugs. The gun shots are extremely loud. I loved that they continued to use long, wide shots for most of the action sequences. Also loved the tactical attack dogs.

“He shot my dog.”
“I get it.”

Will reserve my gripe for when spoilers are discussed.

Saw it yesterday.

Brilliant.

Way better than JW 1 and JW 2.

Anjelica Huston was outstanding.
Halle Berry was delectable.
Charon earned an ITCOB pin with palm fronds, crossed swords, and diamonds.
Asia Kate Dillon is in danger of being typecast.

It was good, but some of the backstory was getting a bit hokey. Don't want to say too much and give away any spoilers

Hard not to typecast them when they are a non-binary actor.

Definitely an action packed movie. Thought it was better than 2, but not quite as good as 1 (hard for a 3rd episode to be as good as the unique at the time first episode).

The action in the knife museum was as cool.

Every guy in the theater was wincing watching Halle Berry's dog's preferred attack location.

Best shotgun action yet.

One of my favorite parts was the new Bush song "Bullet Holes" that was released in this movie. It was played during the credits. We were listening to Bush on the way to the movies. When I heard it playing, I knew and had to stay all the way to the end of the credits for the music credits.

Random film viewing observation -

When I saw it opening night it was at an AMC with 3D Dolby Sound. What an experience! The seat would literally rumble during explosions and when he switched to the armor piercing shotgun shells the ‘bangs’ sounded like they were happening right next me. There were times I felt like I was ‘in’ the movie.

When I saw it again, it was at an AMC, but not the same sound experience. It was ‘loud’, but I did not feel part of the movie like I did with the Dolby sound. Something I really need to take into consideration then next time I go see a flick....
