John Wick: Chapter 2

Though I have not seen the first John Wick film, John Wick: Chapter 2 is still very enjoyable and fun to watch. This neo-noir action thriller has Wick being forced to accept a job by an old friend who then betrays him once the job is done, while also having to deal with other assassins that are part of the same organization that Wick was once a part of. Chapter 2's action sequences are a breath of fresh air since so many action films today over edit fight sequences and use so many cameras that it's hard to tell what's going on. Keanu Reeves is great in the role, Ian McShane has a lot of fun, and Laurence Fishburne was entertaining. Certainly, the best thing about the film is the ending and what happens to John Wick and his former allies.
Over all: 99%
