Three things you shouldn't do to a bad-ass:
1. Ruining his life
2. Kill he's family
3. Push him till he snaps
The story is about ex-hitman comes out of retirement to track down the gangsters that took everything from him.
When I first heard the news that this movie was getting made and the face that two directors that never directed anything before I thought it was going to be a load of crap, but it turns out I was wrong and this movie is awesome.
Keanu Reeves is simple at his best here, even if he's not the greatest actor on the planet, he does try every role and in this movie he does. The directors of the film David Leitch and Chad Stahelski both do a excellent and fantastic job of directing this movie and I found out that these two are actually stunt men. The villain was good, the action scenes were shot perfectly.
Towards the end of the movie felt a bit cliche for me. You know in every action movie that the main hero is facing off the main bad guy and they shouting out one liners at each other, you know what I mean and that to me felt like the writer's got lazy half way through.
John Wick has to be the biggest surprise for me with it's intelligent writing and nail biting action scenes.
