I remember an interview Keanu did and he was asked if John Wick was overkill. Keanu said No, John is only after one guy everyone else is just getting in his way

Fan fact: 1st John Wick didnt make it into big cinemas because it was considered low budget movie (20-30mil)

Fun fact: the actor tasked with “killing Daisy” is a huge dog lover and was so upset the day they shot him swinging at her that he walked around all day holding her and loving on her.

When John asked the bouncer if he lost weight and he answered " Over 60 pounds " he was informing him of how much security was inside. Just a random tidbit.

Rest in peace to Lance Reddick, he was an incredible actor, and Keanu and the cast and crew all talked about how wonderful he was to work with and wore blue ribbons for the premiere of of the fourth movie in remembrance

Ruff's Stand: Freeze Frame At a point before a critical event happens, time will freeze and the stand user will be given insight into the upcoming occurrence.

Honestly my favorite line from this movie is when at the end Winston says "Ms Perkins, your membership to the Continental has been by thine own hand revoked" right before she gets shot I don't know why, it gives me chills😅

Fun fact: when jhon get's the second dog near the end of the movie, in the paiper it said something along the lines of "scheduled to be put down", so jhon saved him

One thing I love about this movie is that John is a believer in the double tap. He doesn't just shoot people in the torso and then just leaves them to potentially still be able to shoot him while on the ground, especially because he knows that they are probably wearing body armor. So he shoots center mass to stagger then makes sure to pop the head to make sure they are dead. Same with the guy he chokes out on the floor. He isn't gonna take the chance that the guy is faking being knocked out, so he snaps the neck too to make sure. Just pure cold efficiency.

My favorite line HAS to be when Viggo telling his son John Wick is who you sent to KILL the f*kng boogeyman... just the chills i get hearing that line... SHOOO

The original script the director wanted to keep daisy alive because he didn't want to alienate dog owners as an audience but he decided to kill her because it made John's character more relatable and people would be more invested in the movie because they can relate

RIP Daisy 😢 In such a short amount of time, I immediately loved that beagle

Me & my wife just binged all 3 last month in preparation for the 4th one but damn, we died of laughter when the mob boss just said “Oh” after hearing who his son had stolen from.

Something I love about the club scene is the cinematography. The sons camera is hectic and jerkinf around all over the place while John's is focused and smooth

He gave him the cheap vodka so it will burn on its way down, then when he punched him it would burn on its way back up. Then he went back to the counter and served himself the good stuff that doesn't burn.

Marcus has really good writing that very few people pick up on. He asks if it's an open contract to determine who else will be going after John, and then just ambiguously says "Consider it done", instead of saying "I'll accept the contract", so he can look out for him.

The John Wick franchise is one of the most amazing franchises of all time period, and i cant wait to see your reactions. I recently watched Chapter 4 in theatres and it was one of the most amazing movies i have seen in my entire life that will stay with me forever.

The John Wick series is amazing. I got interested in it when I heard it was about a man out for revenge for his car stolen and dog killed. The director used to be Keanu’s stunt man in “The Matrix”. Keanu did the majority of his action scenes and only used stuntmen when it was so dangerous even a seasoned stuntman would get hurt. It always made me wonder why the wife didn’t make sure to have food delivered with the dog. The Red Circle fight scene Keanu had the flu bad with around 103 degree fever but still nailed the shot. Keanu really values his stunt-doubles. He buys them wrap gifts. Like one John Wick movie he got them motorcycles and the latest one he got all 5 of them submariner watches engraved saying John Wick 5 the stuntman’s name and date. Iosef couldn’t just steal John’s car cause of the way that John acted at the gas station. Iosef felt disrespected so he was going to make sure he learned a lesson not knowing who John was. I love how Viggo says “oh”. It’s like he read a multipage letter. I like the Marilyn Manson song they put in and I’m not a big Manson fan. It really fits with what Marcus does.

when the dad says "MY SON WOULD BE STILL ALIVE" this was a triumph. I'm making a note here, "huge success"

John Wick can literally kill anybody with anything. The first one was a lot of gun play and emotional ride. The rest is just pure creativity and showcasing how versatile the boogeyman actually is. Also the Lore of the assassin world is insane

The funniest part of when Jimmy shows up at the start... watch Jimmy's left hand slowly move away from the holster as they finish chatting. 🤣

RIP Lance Reddick. He was such a great part of this franchise, among the many other roles he has played. He will definitely be missed.

Keanu did an interview where he was asked if John over reacted killing so many for 1 dog and Keanu said no. He was only after one guy there were just so many people in the way. Look at Francis smart enough to get out of his way

In the original script, Wick is between 60 to 70 years old. OF course, Keanu is timeless.

The guy you said was giving him a hard time and the one who stabbed him with the bottle and threw him off the balcony. Which is the same person he fights in the church after vigo left. The director said that character was the replacement for John in the Russian organization.

All the 4 movies are masterpieces

41:23 He actually saw the future when he said John Wick in Paris lol

Had to cut off patreon support for now but love you guys!

I read in an interview that Daisy the dog was not originally supposed to die, but Keanu thought that Daisy had to be killed in that scene for John to be motivated to KILL EVERYBODY!!!!!!

This franchise is such a blast! Saw the 4th Movie, and now going back to the First, it really blows my mind how everything started all over a Dog. "Don't mess with Animals: The Movie" 😆

The genius of this movie is that you don't even realize when you're watching it how much lore and world-building they're giving you for them to build on in the sequels. It like nothing but action but there's a lot of expert story-telling going on in the background that you're taking in but not processing until it comes back up in later movies. My personal favorite is the second one. It has the most tension to me because the antagonist is actually a legitimate rival for John.

"It's from his wife? Oh my god, that makes me sooo emotional..." Man, you have got NO CLUE what's coming to get you! ;-)

You guys should definitely check out Nobody if you haven't seen it. It's such a good movie and Bob Odenkirk has said the training and exercise he did for the movie probably saved his life after his stroke on the set of Better Call Saul's 6th Season

I remember reading somewhere that the way Keanu reloads in these movies is used by competitive speed shooters now because it's more efficient than previous techniques.

Fun fact: When John asked the bouncer about losing weight and he answered with "over sixty pounds" he wasn't actually talking about his weight, he was telling john how many men were in the building, which is also why john let him go.

11:22 the reason that that his Dad, the mob boss gets a different bottle, is that he planned to do that. He gave his son the cheap vodka, because he knew he’d throw it up when he hit him in the stomach. Then, he pours himself a glass of the good vodka. He also pointedly doesn’t give his son a glass of it.

6:50 This scene is 100% necessary to sell Keanu as the good guy for the rest of the movie. 🙏🏽

Fun fact the director put bacon grease on keeanu's face to make the puppy Andy a boy plays daisy lick his face they also did it with Cha Cha the pitbull in the third movies but they used peanut butter for her. The pitbull is played by two different pitties Burton a boy plays dog in chapter 2 and Cha Cha sweet girl plays dog in chapter 3. Haha no nothing happens to dog he's safe john doesn't take him into any danger though can't wait for you guys to see chapter 2 and 3 both are awesome and have a lot more action sequences and awesome fight scenes more brutal death scenes

"OH". The greatest 1 word ever spoken in film. 😅

Honestly one of the greatest independantly made movies of all time. I hope this stands as a testament to the storytelling potential of stunt teams and stunt coordinators, because absolutely everything about the first John Wick is perfect. I have quibbles with the second and third movie, but they don't reduce my enjoyment of them, but 1 and 4 stand as perfect action movies for me.

I think these films get so much praise bc while some scenes may be repetitive, it’s the WORLD BUILDING surprisingly that’s actually amazing 🤗

This is a thought I just had, I doubt I'm the first to think it. Its always badass when a guy just kicks ass or goes on a spree in movies in simple black suit. And think I know why. Yes its to do with the simplicity of it; just no frills, no real flash, it lets you focus on the action and the emotions... But its a bit deeper than that, I think. I think the reason its so badass to see a character like john wick in the simple black suit go on his revenge fueled murder spree... Is because its, in essence, a funeral suit. Its basically a statement. "they put on this suit, and people. Are going. To die."

Keanu had high fever during the Nightclub scene and pullt through. If you think about what he does in this movie He Looks almost inhuman.

i just randomly re-watch john wick 1 , and the reaction drops. Pure happiness

So glad to see more reacting to this film.

Dafoe was never really hunting John; he took the contract so he could watch over his friend, a real bro. If it wasn't the case he absolutely coulda taken him out while he was sleeping

One of the BEST action movies EVER! No dispute.

I think this and the 4th movie are the best ones. John Wick 4 is the most epic movie ever…

Been waiting on this one yesss John wick series is so fire 🔥

Oh shit the WKUK reference had me rolling. Well done, sir.

One thing about first time watching a movie with someone who's already watched it is that during the movie where they think some scenes are not important so they just loudly joke it through while your experience will be easily ruined, as if they handpicked what they think the most highlighted part of the movie for you to focus, instead of yourself. Plus from directing and movie making perspective, a movie is delivering an experience of watching it from top to end continuously without pausing and sharing, that's why the best movie experience is in the movie theater coz you just sit their, shut your mouth and phone down and purely experience the whole story. But everyone has different ways of enjoying movie I guess, the point is having a blast :)

also also "no business can be conducted on these grounds, lest incurring heavy penalties" doesn't specify killing anyone. it literally means acting on a contract. you'll see this in action in the second movie, which I highly recommend. Whether you kill the target or not, you are NOT to conduct business of any kind, aka tracking or attacking a contract target, when on the premises of the Continental Hotel, worldwide.

*Let's go! been waiting for it*

GOD DAMN YOU GUYS ARE FAST AT UPLOADING

Can't wait for more John Wick 🙌 *Just assuming* here, I think by the time the trilogy upload to KZfaq, the John Wick 4 available to buy or rent 🤞🤞

us supernatural fans like to know everything about our boys💖

Ok boom with the supernatural knowledge 👏

JW 3 is my favorite and can't wait for your reactions on that one!

Well done guys. Very entertaining.

The one playing Perkins is Adrianne Palicki. She stars in the show Orville and In Agents of Shield.

Harry wasnt gonna let her go. Hotel management would have found her in the room and she would suffer the same fate she did later in the movie.

hey i heard ruff say have you seen bondock saints? (which is an amazing movie!) but have you seen the second one?

41:30 "John Wick in Paris"..... oh if you guys only knew haha

The best term i've ever heard for john wick's breed of action is "gun-fu"

When Avi (Mayhem guy) shoots at John, then laughs.. Best assumption is it's the gun Viggo used on Marcus - so it only had that one round left, and he missed with it :p

"john wick in paris" lmao keep watching maybe that happens

I mean, it was awfully courteous of John to unlock his front and back doors so the team of hitmen could walk in without having to B&E.

when i first saw this movie and at the end, i really wanted john to say i need a reason for JW 2 lol

I *completely* understood your Supernatural explanation. LOL Adrianne Palicki played Jessica, Sam's gf that was killed. Jared married Gen, the actress that played Ruby #2.

Remember gentlemen… it only gets better from here. 😏

They ain't ready for PEAK action and world building coming up

*Someone gets killed by an assassin* Charlie: 👁👄👁

also his name is actually WILLIAM DAFOE (pronounced DAY-FOE). There's an old video up on KZfaq where hes seen at an acting class introducing himself as William Dayfoe. He said at some acting thing, someone offed up his name as Willem Dah-foe and bc his dad was also Willian Dayfoe, he stuck with Willem Dah-foe.

Second movie starts with John Wick getting killed, and the dog goes on a revenge murder spree.

Now watch the Pitch Meeting video for John Wick 😂😂😂

Wondering about the price of the coins, the directors themselves said that its less a currency and more a token of being 'in the know'. Theres no concrete value to the coins, and if you have to ask how much a coins worth, then you're not in the Continental.

Well the best way to see what drives the plot on for 3 more movies is to watch those movies xD Though I still need to see 3 myself before I can move on to 4, got behind in watching anything. I didn't find 2 as good as the first, myself, but it was still highly enjoyable, I thought.

Do you guys cut off the "main lines" in the movie for patreon or it's just what you do? Genuinely asking , new viewer.

Jimmy the officer is probably the smartest person in this movie

So no spoilers but to explain a bit of its popularity. Jon Wick 1 to 4 are essentially one storyline all linked together the events here in 1 tie into 2 which leads into 3 and 4 finishes the story. Whereas taken is the same story repeating and fast and furious are largely seperate stories in the same universe this is one story told over 4 films.

41:51 For the record, though, it is legally William.

The guy at the end only shot at John once because he ran out of bullets... Vigo unleashed every other bullet into Marcus at the house.

Such an amazing series

I LOVE that the new car from management gets totaled in the end, it's a POS car to begin with, was laughin' my ass off.

Man watching the start of John Wick again was bad for me, I just had to put my old dog to rest this week and it got me a bit emotional

I would love to see you react to Grand Budapest Hotel. It's one of my favorites and Willem Dafoe also plays a psychopath in it.

interestingly willem dafoe's real name is william he just used willem as a nickname for a while cause his friends called him that then he used that as his stage name for auditions

That is not Jared Padalecki’s wife. They are on Walker Texas Ranger together now.

Titanic was 3hrs. Avatar, both of them, are 3hrs. ROOTS was 3hrs. Avengers Infinity War was just under 3hrs. Avengers Endgame was 3hrs. Zac Snyder's Justice League is 4hrs. We've got JW4 covered. lol

Old school bady. Just with a modern twist.

For the record, John Wick kills 77 people in this movie. If you want to make that a drinking game...good luck.

Rumored the coins are valued between 3 and 7 grand apiece.

Keeanu was 48 when he did john wick he did fight driving and gun training himself the only things he didn't so and had a stunt double for was being hit by the cars and being thrown down the stairs/ falling down the stairs

This is the lowest budged and least violent of the four... Seriously, in this movie, John just wants to go home to the suburbs and grieve his wife. By the time of the fourth one, he's going full Doom Slayer "rip and tear until it is done" against enemies in level 5 body armor and ninjas (it's about 2.75 hours long, with around 2 hours of that being fight scenes).

I caught the WKUK reference

Also, the gold coins are more like tokens to the right of service than money. Having the coins is saying you're part of that world.

>_> So, Erik - I hope I didn't butcher the pronunciation of that - have you ever had anybody tell you that you slightly resemble Henry Czerny? He's the actor that plays Eugene Kittridge in Mission Impossible 1 and returned to the character for Dead Reckoning, Pt 1. It's not an insult, just noting a slight resemblance.

1 of the most heinous crime in movie history that leads to 439 body counts so far in 4 movies ............................ A PUNK KILLS A PUPPY

What Year?

I expect the next 3 movies reaction to come out withingthe next week.
