How come nobody fave me a heads up on this movie that opens now on theaters near you?

Guys, guys, wake up! I count on you for this stuff. I’m at the end of the world!!!

Wick is on it, Charon is on it, Winston is on it and The Director (Angelica Houston) is on it!!!

If someone would be so kind to post a trailer…., please and thank you.

Likely will see it during the weekend and report.

I think the lack of hype here is due to how abysmally stupid the last film was. The series, for me, ends with the second film and that one started to get weird about halfway through. I have zero interest in this one and I’m pretty sure I’ll never muster the energy to forcibly endure the last one ever again. Horrible.

I am easily entertained and own and like all the John Wick movies so I'm sure I'll like this one.

Could not have said it better myself. Only the first one was actually worth watching. Reeves specializes in such phenomena. Matrix, for example.

The first and last time I saw the last movie was at the theater and I swore never again. I said it in another thread, but in the first film he was just a dude with skills. In the last movie he was Captain America.

When this hits prime for free I may try to watch it. Maybe.

I'm willing to play along because it's an excuse to have fun, but what got really annoying in the later movies is that every problem in John Wick's life was John Wick's fault because he's a terrible decision maker.

I'll wait for digital for this.

The latter films make one wonder why he was considered such a fearsome opponent. He's so emotionally charged in each successive sequel that it's hard to imagine him not being angry whenever he did a job. And since his emotions seem to make him make poor decisions, it stands to reason he should have died long ago from some mistake.

While I like the John Wick movies, I will not see this one. The whole 100 lb. super woman taking on men twice her size and winning is getting silly. Granted the JW movies were breaking the reality point but the superwomen movies are becoming ridiculous.

Going to go watch this in a theater next week.

Looks awesome.

Having some girl bad ass doesn't bother me, I have imagination and it is just a movie to enjoy.

It's not a documentary. Eek

I'll give this movie some credit in that the first minute of the first trailer addresses that and doesn't pretend to hide like most other movies where 90lb women are assaulted well-mannered stuntmen.

The John Wick series was a favorite of mine, in spite of reality.

Thank you. I couldn't agree more.

I differ from that opinion. Well obviously fantasy, I’ve always found the hard-core fighting woman sexy as fuck; usually they are fueled by some type of rage, and when written, right, I really enjoy that genre.

The bride from kill Bill, aria from Game of Thrones, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hannah (a hidden gem) Nikita, and now this story from the John Wick universe are all great examples.

Well, she did have her way w/ Keanu/John Wick already back in Knock Knock, so there's a precedent. Wink

Surprisingly, The Lovely Girlfriend reminded me that this movie was out this weekend. We’ll probably go see it next week.

In the first clip DanH posted, the young lady says, “they killed my father.” Whose daughter is she?




God bless America.

The reviews I watched mention that it's clearly stated in the movie that she'll always be smaller and weaker than men, so she needs to approach fighting differently.

I'll watch it later, but most likely not in theaters.

The reviews also said it was a decent movie.

It seems to be decent, but nothing special.
