John Wick: Chapter 4 Countdown: A Time for Action
John Wick: Chapter 4 is coming in 4 days. Have you bought your tickets yet? Are you excited as I am about seeing it? Expect action at its greatest core because of the great actors and director.
I can only blog good things about Keanu Reeves and Chad Stahelski. Many are familiar with Keanu Reeves and his rise as a star but do you know anything about the John Wick franchise director Chad Stahelski? Did you know the director is a professional stuntman himself? It’s amazing what the Internet teaches you. Sometimes the directors don’t get enough credit because the stars outshine them.
What is your favorite John Wick movie? I like John Wick 3: Parabellum co-starring Halle Berry the best. Like always, Laurence Fishburne did an awesome job too. The third one came out in 2019 and grossed over $327 million at the box office. Can you believe the first one came out in 2014? It is still going strong after all these years.
They Had to Make Another One
John Wick 4 is not only an action but a neo-noir film. That combination puts it in a unique category. Fans will enjoy the components of the script. Expect big numbers at the box office. Could it dethrone D.C.’s Shazam: Fury of the Gods? We shall see.
After researching the film I’ve discovered some things worth sharing. First I must inform you the plot is out of this world. I haven’t got the chance to read the script but it seems well-written judging by the actors’ lines in the trailer. I’m looking forward to seeing the new character they created called Akira played by Rina Sawayama. She seems like an ideal addition to the cast.
The Reviews Are In
If you follow my Twitter handle, you would know I Retweeted Rotten Tomatoes recently. The critics have spoken and gave John Wick: Chapter 4 high marks. In fact, the film received a certified fresh Tomato score of 93 percent. Most of the time Rotten Tomatoes gets it right. I don’t think the consensus is wrong about John Wick 4.
This is the highest rated film in the franchise. When it is all said and done, it wouldn’t surprise me if the box office numbers exceed north of $250 million. Prepare for anything. Like the Scream 6 movie with star Jenna Ortega, no one predicted such success.
Although this movie was shelved and initially had a release date of May 27, 2022, March 24, 2023 is perfect timing. Spring just started today and that means it’s time for action.
A Time for Action
John Wick: Chapter 4 will keep fans on the edge of their seats. There’s so much anticipation. I can’t wait. Are you ready for some action? We’re 4 days away from a dynamic viewing experience. How far have they gone to achieve the affect they want on the audience? Will you go see it in theaters or wait to buy or rent? Could you come back to the website and comment after seeing the movie?
Lance Reddick
I blog about movies because they portray the human experience. It amazes me how actors create vivid imagery for people to see. Cinema is a form of life and work of art. As someone who enjoys the John Wick franchise, I appreciate Lance Reddick and his role as Charon. Throughout his career, Reddick played different roles that influenced a multitude. Keanu Reeves dedicated John Wick: Chapter 4 to him. I want to use my space on this website to honor him for all his prolific work. May Lance Reddick rest in peace.
