When people first saw the trailer for John Wick, they might have thought it was just another revenge-based action movie, but the film actually went on to change action movies, albeit subtly. The genre was really struggling when the first Wick film came out, as the majority of big-budget action films of the day focused on explosions and effects instead of characters and choreography.
Now, countless films are being compared to John Wick, and the film itself has spawned a successful franchise and given Keanu Reeves a much-needed career boost. Let’s take a look at the ways in which John Wick changed action movies.

You missed what I feel is the most significant change John Wick made to action movies -- his efficiency of style. No more pummeling a bad guy for ten minutes, exchanging witty one-liners. No more spinning around and showboating. Just dropping bad guys with a quick, ruthless effectiveness -- what a REAL professional killer would surely do!

Actually, while Bourne's fights are entertaining and exciting, they are the opposite of Wick's style. Wick engages just enough to take out (kill) targets, with minimal physical interaction. Bourne's object is NOT to kill, so he has extended fight scenes, including much physical interaction.

@@pcbacklash_3261 To be fair, that's because Bourne is hoping to interrogate them in a few cases. Bourne also prefers fewer, more professional killers against one another rather than dozens of faceless bodyguards, resulting in fights that wax and wane in either direction before Bourne goes the extra mile and wins out. For examples of longer John Wick action scenes, see John Wick's standoffs with Perkins, Cassian, and his encounters with the various assassins of New York. Those fights were far faster than his fights with Perkins or Cassian, but they were also not even close to being his equal. Perkins had the advantage of surprise and a badly injured Wick, while Cassian could be argued to be within the same ball park as Wick, while still needing a lot of catching up to do to be a true equal.

Well the quick cuts were made for actors who can't do the long shots and remember all the choreography. Bale was only as good as Batman because of Nolan's quick cuts, making Bale look good. Bale can do long shots like he did in Equilibrium. It worked for Bourne, failed with everything else.

CavemanJesus4Life that's why I said overuse... Bourne used it to heighten pace and the energy-- the cuts were deliberate, showing us what the director wanted... everyone else starting doing it to hide things, not show us things... much like post-matrix bullet time, which they still do now-- slow down and speed up time indiscriminately... when they use camera tricks to hide their imperfections ("we'll fix it in post"), that's where they start going wrong....

ashley sterling The comment about the quick cuts being deliberate is somewhat similar to some of the 3d that I liked watching in 3D at the theaters, Tron 2 and Dredd. Dredd used it as a plot point and Tron used it to show more depth of feel in the cyber world (instead of objects moving towards you they move farther away). Too bad Tron 2 wasn't a better film 3D could have had a better run if it was.

@@coffeedense same here I have a great deal of respect for him, compared to a lot of the other actors. He doesn't bring politics into his movies, he just does movies, he doesn't do them to tell us what to do, he doesn't get up and tweet that he's this, and he's that, & we need to do as he tweets unlike others. He's just a person, he keeps his life private, and he knows that what he does can affect what people do. So he's very careful about what he says and does. What I like is that he is a real person and that he doesn't use his notoriety or fame to try and make us do something. The only thing that he does is he does have charities, but he's so quiet about it that you don't know he has these charities. To me, he's like the old movie stars way back in the 30s and 40s who really didn't use their fame to get something and instead used it to help others. When he did the matrix at first, I didn't understand what was happening in it, but I have to admit it does have a cult following because of what it teaches, it teaches us to be very careful, not only about say, for instance, if we were attacked by aliens and whatever we would do, but also be careful about the world around us, what's real and what's not. Just the other day I was talking to my husband that there was a beautiful rendition of Simon & Garfunkel's "Hello darkness my old friend" by a little girl on KZfaq, and it was very haunting. It struck me, it's here. Talking all the time, but saying nothing, on Twitter Snapchat, Facebook, Instagram. WhatsApp. Putting our lives out for all to see talking, but not really speaking. These neon gods, really scary, oh, my husband, just looked at me and said, I never thought of it that way. I'm sure that when they wrote the song, they were just writing something that came from the heart, not realising that in their life time, they would see us doing this. Did you know one of the Google creaters has a church that worships as its God, a computer! Why not, it's perfect, it wouldn't make a mistake. Well, yes, of course, it would, all computers are programmed by a human being, it only knows what the human being put into it, even AI is created by th,e intelligence of the man who programed it originally.

I appreciate all the training he actually does to prefect the character. He just doesn’t rely on cgi or winging it, he puts his body & mind through it. Keanu is awesome, the first movie where the fight scene on the dance floor, he was ill and done it like in 1 take

You can see similar attention to detail in the TV series Person of Interest. The protagonist is a former Special Ops/CIA agent and the choreography of the fight scenes is amazing. The star Jim Caviezel spent a lot of time at shooting ranges and speaking to actual operatives to give his work that extra authenticity.

Uh, no, the 80s and 90s was the era of the superhuman protagonist who kills armies of men (Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Wesley Snipes, Bruce Willis, Steven Seagal, etc. It's this era that the Expendables movies were making fun of, because it's ALL about the invincible protagonist) without barely taking a scratch. That stuff got toned down a long time ago. Hero's get banged up now, and almost killed, constantly in movies nowadays. People are acting like John Wick's movies is the first time that the protagonist gets his ass kicked. Hell, I'd argue that Wick's ability to survive the injuries he takes on is almost close to being on par with the whole "superhuman protagonist" genre that many claim Wick's movies depart from.

I haven't seen John Wick yet. But Keanu Reeves is seriously under-appreciated. Critics talk about his "vapid" stare and lack of expression. I see deep eyes and concentration. He's tall for an actor, and in good shape. No one here has mentioned The Replacements, but it's one of my favorite Keanu movies. Yeah, he can play a washed-up QB, and you can believe he might have played football.
@MsSissiePooh
@MsSissiePooh 5 жыл бұрын
No argument here. Keanu was able to take the ‘blank slate’ character of John Wick and give him a depth of emotion that we didn’t expect. He made the character believable, and took a plot premise which, on paper, seems kinda silly, and put so much sincerity and earnestness into the film, that we go along with the story, and it turns into an awesome thrill ride. So, I can’t wait to see what happens in John Wick 3.

Big hollywood movies after it did not follow it.

I specifically refrained from writing influenced but rather went for revival since it's something it can accomplish on its own.

Because of watching John wick, I have high expectations on action movies. I generally don't like guns or violence, but the way the wick plays the character in gun fights is so cool especially how he unloads a spent cartridge and loads another one in one flick. I enjoyed the Jason Bourne trilogy but after watching this John wick franchise, I am blown away!! Just pure action, minimal CGI scenes ( if any), raw skill and no sex scene that disrupt the main story line.

There is not artistry to it, no redirecting the a person fire, using the their body as a shield, setting up the person you are engaging to allow the next action to smoothly flow through to engage the next target... A BETTER TOMORROW is a great shoot um up older movie from the late 80s... but Equilibrium and John Wick's fighting style are on a whole different level.

actually, the gun-kata is a style to optimize the use of gun. There is no melee with that style and christian's character in that movie had to train himself in close combat style (with the katana).

We all notice and hope that more directors for action movies will follow in Wick's footstep.

The Raid and The Raid 2 are my favorite action movies, the choreography and cinematography were insane, and they were brutal as hell
