I really enjoyed it and hope to see her come back for a follow up
For me, the weakest one is. Parabellum, because it has the worst ending of all five films.Enjoyed this even though it's the weakest entry in the franchise. Ana certainly does well with the action but doesn't really get much more to do.
The action is great and you definitely root for Eve. Grenade ball and the flame off are the standout sequences. And I was pleasantly surprised how much John Wick is actually in this.
A decent spin off that's sadly not doing too great at the BO. 7/10.

The action in 2 and 3 are great. But, 3 ends with everybody after John. Same ending as,2I didn't think much of either 2 or 3 when I first saw them, but loved them on a recent re-watch.

Perhaps. But the way it felt to me was that the needle hadn’t moved veryIsn't it just the high table after him at the end of 3? It is a slight difference as the 4th movie showed. Ballerina also shows he wasn't being hunted after the 3rd movie.
Not exactly. 3 ends with John deciding to go on the offense as opposed to simply running.The action in 2 and 3 are great. But, 3 ends with everybody after John. Same ending as,2
When I walked out of JW 2, I thought “John’s in real trouble”. When I left, Parabellum, “ boy, they really want to keep making these movies”.Not exactly. 3 ends with John deciding to go on the offense as opposed to simply running.
I do think most left with intense interest in where the next one went, as the box office emphasized.When I walked out of JW 2, I thought “John’s in real trouble”. When I left, Parabellum, “ boy, they really want to keep making these movies”.
I have no issues with John Wick 4.I do think most left with intense interest in where the next one went, as the box office emphasized.
That said, I do think the story is also there. I think the idea between each film is strong. All are based around consequences. While the ending of the second film shows the consequence of breaking "the rules" of an artificial structure, the 4th film is about the consequences of honoring past relationships forged in blood ,sweat and tears. An extension of the finale of three.
Which is the norm for each John Wick. The start of the next film is based on what happened at the end of the last.

They are definitely waiting to see how the Cain spinoff does.
Ideally, the lesson will be not go with Len Wisemen and others like him in the future.
The thing is though most of the GA wouldn't have a clue who directed the movie. They just aren't coming out to see this movie for some reason.
