So if you’re like me and love John Wick, it looks like we might get more installments! I’m all in on this thing. We talk about what would be cool to take it to the next level.” I can’t say that we’re not geeked about continuing the idea and the character. We had an amazing time making this story. In the second hour, this turns into an extraordinary.
This one has a blistering opening action sequence, and then a relatively slow first hour which builds the story but keeps you interested. But with a Februrelease date, I might have been a bit too soon.Īnyway, last night before the CinemaCon Awards in Las Vegas, I was able to talk to Keanu Reeves about the John Wick: Chapter Two. While we talked about what’s different about the sequel, the fight scenes, filming in Rome, that gun range video that went viral, and a lot more, the real highlight was that Reeves sounded enthusiastic about doing even more sequels. JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 2 is a great addition to the action thriller genre and a superior sequel to the original movie, which in itself was a very good film. So when Lionsgate announced they were moving ahead on John Wick: Chapter Two, I was ready to head to my local theater and buy tickets. And while Hollywood likes to make sequels and prequels to films that don’t need one, I’m all aboard the John Wick sequel train.
