Precision, energy, and innovation move the components of John Wick, but the synergy that comes from their singular motion transcends mechanistic clockwork into vital, aesthetic flow.

As video games and action movies parabolically draw closer and closer to one another, John Wick 3 may be the first of its kind to figure out how to keep that comparison from being a point of shame.

Amazingly the third movie also fully delivers. It has everything what made the previous movies so entertaining and adds more action, lore, worldbuilding and new characters. It starts directly where the last movie ended. John is on the run and has approx 50 minutes until a bounty of 14 million is activated. Even for “Baba Yaga” this is a no win scenario. Here I stop to avoid spoilers. It is an intense roller coaster ride with style and surprises. We were amazed how stylish the movies are with so much attention to detail. Then there are the actors. As always Keanu Reeves fully delivers his role. Ian Mc Shane, Lance **** and Laurence Fishburene return and reprise their great roles. I was so happy to see Mark Dacascos. I haven't seen him in a long time in movies. The other new characters played by Halle Berry, Said Taghmaoui and Asia Kate Dillo also deliver and I see no misstep here. The action is for the whole series a role model for competitors. The term “Gun Fu” was made for this. You feel the impact and pain. Additionally it is a good set up for the final movie. I give a 10/10 here as the movie was so entertaining that it felt wrong to go lower.

Between its orgiastic carnage, orgasmic colours and very good dogs, Wick’s return gives hyper-stimulated action cinema a good name.

There is just enough story here to give the brutality shape and purpose, and to keep that numbness from turning to boredom. “Parabellum” — the name comes from a Latin phrase meaning “If you want peace, prepare for war” — picks up precisely where “John Wick: Chapter 2” left off: with John on the run.

The best way to watch isn’t with oohs and aahhs. It’s with laughter, savoring the beauty and the absurdity of each elaborate spectacle. Each movement is a joke, and death is the ultimate punchline.

The action choreography is as brutal as you expect, though the repetition in style from the first two films makes the effect less surprising.

The movie should by rights be a “Wow!” But it feels bloated, self-conscious, and pretentious, with long waits between its few dazzling fights. Evidently, it’s hard to build on a premise that’s basically so vacuous and dumb.

John Wick: Chapter 3- Parbellum has a dark themed with a on the run glass ****, horse, motorcycle, martial arts, guns and knives action that is still fresh in various ways. My only problem with the film is the storyline as it was all over the place and doesn't provide new idea's as much.

Worst of the four with annoying cringey supporting cast. Over the top plot armor & damage buffs. Dumbest of endings of all the series. John Wick should of been dead multiple times in this one. Saving grace was some fun cool dog scenes & Gun Fu actions scenes. Overall mostly a frustrating & cringey watch right to the end.

Endured until the 1:25 mark and just shut it down. It felt like watching someone play, lets say, Max Payne on god mode for hour and a half. The knives fight was entertaining, the horse one OK, and Casablanca one cringy as hell. The endless waves of faceless (some times literally) mooks keeps coming and dying by a close head shots is just to much for me. You know this movie made me thing that Stalin was right: a death of one man is a tragedy but deaths of millions is just statistics. I got more trills form Born killing that single assassin in Casablanca then Keanu and Hale killing hundreds. And yeah one or to dog bites to the crotch was just enough. In the first and in the beginning of a second chapter John Wick was a boogeyman, a stories were told and retold about how he killed tree men with just a pencil, in the third movie we found out that he is not the boogeyman, just one of many and it some how kills it for me.
