Still, if the novelty of Reeves’s persona, the unbelievably stylish direction, and absolutely brutal violence portrayed in uniquely clear and long takes, has worn off at all, it hasn’t by much.
The third installment drip-feeds a few more intriguing details of lore. The sequence introducing two dogs into the fighting is one of the best in the series.
My only real complaint was the power-creep sequence in which Wick has to take on big dudes in big armor that just makes them harder to kill. To me it just felt like the movie briefly abandoning what makes its action so great.

I’m just a sucker for this series.

Who cares, really, though. Give me number 4.
