Alright Keanu heads, you already know and love these movies. But for those who aren’t intimately familiar with the shoot-’em-up, writhing, frenetic action of John Wick and its sequels, get ready for a wild ride.
Keanu Reeves — the one, the only, the savior of Zion — is at the helm of these hit films. Like his role in The Matrix, his character here, the titular John Wick, is not one to back down from a fight. Or two. Or 200. Essentially, this is the story of a man who loved a woman, and then who loved a dog, and then goes on the most brutal, brazen rampage ever to grace the silver screen.
This is a love letter to action scenes, and if you’ve got a taste for a bit of the old ultraviolence, hot dog, this is your jam. Behind the scenes, there’s a lot to love about this franchise as well. One of the best and most prolific stunt people in the film industry, Chad Stahelski, is the director of John Wick. Before that? He was a stunt double for Keanu Reeves in The Matrix. And on top of that, Morpheus himself, Laurence Fishburne, eventually shows up in the series!
