It seems to me that John Wick is one of the most brutal Assassins in history and one of my favorites and here I explain why. First you should know that John Wick is a very violent, often bloody thriller starring Keanu Reeves as a brutal, vengeful killer. The death toll is very high: The characters are shot bloodily, they are mutilated, stabbed, beaten, threatened, the murderers with firearms at point-blank range are very outdated scenes, they are blown to pieces in an explosion, they are strangled . with clean hands, and much more to tell. Especially since much of the violence is depicted in a stylized and somewhat glamorous way, it's best to try to reserve it for older teens and adults. Although there is also a pinch of humor, and the fight scenes are choreographed in such an exciting way that it is almost like watching a work of art with the pirouettes and fights so coordinated that everything is super realistic to the point of making you bite your nails. even if it is with shots and without quarter. You can also expect a lot of swearing ("f---der", "s---da" and more) and a good amount of alcohol, as well as smoking marijuana and such.
Now on the part of the story of the plot, the story takes us to many previous events in the films. John runs into some murderers from whom he stole money in his childhood and after that these murderers destroyed a town with a rocket launcher and killed all its inhabitants. Wick survived by luck, but since then he swore that he would take revenge on those monsters who massacred so many people for a lot of dollars, now that they have reappeared in his life, the protagonist does not plan to let this opportunity slip away and immerses you in as in In his films he manages to take revenge on everyone while also suffering a lot of physical and brutal damage in many of his violent fights, very brutal.
To conclude, John Wick is more than a film of action and violence; It is a journey of loss, revenge and the struggle to find a purpose to achieve your goal and be at peace with it. Its ending, with John walking into the darkness accompanied by his new canine companion who also shows us his cold and brutal killer instinct to help the protagonist, symbolizes both his endless internal struggle and his resilience and that although he tries to withdraw from that world he will still be there. not being able to get away so easily.
It should be noted that the film is part of a brutal saga and already has 4 parts and 2 spin offs that are in progress (one about The Continental and another with Ana de Armas called Ballerina), which is also one of the best action sagas of recent years for their brutality and bloody story full of revenge and personal justice without a doubt or at least for me.
