Some random thoughts: - I like how John Wick's signature moves stop to work in this movie, how his enemies start to know how to counter him. And how he has to get more creative - which means kicking his foes' balls. Well, whatever works... - Zero (Mark Dacascos) (Japanese fanboy / wannabe-nemesis) is practically saying "Recognize me, Senpai" and I'm stunned that no one has made a meme. What's up, internet? - Seeing Charon kick ass is awesome! Guess you need some Killing 101, if you want to stay in the business. - Sofia (Halle Berry) and her two killer dogs are overpowered. But now I really get why they were wearing body armor. Still, I would have thought that John would be more sympathetic towards Sofia's dog being almost shot to death... Maybe he's angry he didn't think of body armor for his dog? - Regarding the organization: It's basically Assassin's Creed without the Gods and somewhere along the way they finally got rid of the Templars? In my opinion (and therefore it is fact) is John Wick an alternate timeline for Assassin's Creed. - And how could I forget the follow-up to the classic pencil kill: the book kill or book fu. Also: horse fu.
