P.S. - this is a Keanu fansite. We are interested in financially supporting his movies, multiple times for the same movie in some cases. We only make use of dodgy free downloads for those films of his that are long out of cinemas and/or extremely hard to get hold of otherwise. So, shoo.

"This soundtrack is not what you would typically listen to when trying to relax. Rather, it seems to try and do the opposite."

Huh. You think? Why would it do that?

And thank you, Anakin, for taking out the trash.

In the positively reviewed revenge movie John Wick, Keanu Reeves has officially returned as a movie star. Throughout a puzzling career that's seen starring roles in polar opposite franchises, Bill & Ted and The Matrix, Reeves has been a bit of a wild card on the screen. He's not Brad Pitt level popular, but he's also not Nicolas Cage level unpredictable. He's in that interesting middle ground of known but not universally recognized; famous, but not beloved by a band of loyal followers.

.... OI !

wow.
just wow.

the images. the slick cinematography. the world behind the world. the action choreography. the attention to details. the dark humor. the Reeves.

going to see it again on Saturday.
because.

but an entirely excellent film - as you say, cinematography, world-building, action, details, humor - also characters drawn sharply, soundtrack, the whole "look"

I've seen it 5x now, and I keep seeing new things!

And Luca, you can NEVER read too many comics ;)

I always feel a little weird about "defending" him because he doesn't really need defending, and because I'm kind of sure it would make him cringe (get over it, man) but still, the level of idiocy in some reviews is still mind-numbing.

Ani, this one's for the archive.
let me know if I should format it

Edit : sorry, didn't realize it was posted before...

I'd prefer to read the reviews of something that I've seen and then I can agree or disagree
