To get an idea of what to expect in the Caine film, it may be worth checking out the last film directed by and starring Donnie Yen - The Prosecutor.

No one will ever change my mind that this scene with the OST is one of the best in film history

It's so crazy how John was moving in against the Marquis forces in such a deadly manner! This scene also shows John's ability to adapt to situations and his proficiency in difficult weapons when he singlehandedly subdues two of them all by himself without the use of a firearm, in my opinion.

Even the way he approaches the scene with the tactical defence training by keeping his knife near the edge of his gun to keep it handy should he be disarmed while fighting! The fact that this was a John Wick who came out of retirement after so long and was still putting down dozens of assassins and mercenaries throughout the series makes me wonder just how deadly and fearsome must the Baba Yaga have been in his prime!

This guy made a throwing knife AND a hand knife from a gun.

This is the first time I see someone does that in movies.

Why would John use a "marker" with Santino?

In JW Chapter 2, we learn that John had a marker with Santino, which he used to accomplish his "impossible task". But if he was trying to retire, why use a marker? He would know that Santino could then use the marker to basically force John to do his bidding at any time in the future, and he couldn't truly 100% be out of the game with that debt looming over him​​. Even if Helen had never gotten sick, John would inevitably be dragged back into the criminal world...it just seems odd to me that someone as resourceful as ​John would be willing to have that Sword ​of Damocles ​​​​hanging over his (and Helen's) ​heads for the rest of their lives together.​ We see throughout the series that he is capable of plenty of "impossible" tasks all on his own. I know that without the marker, we don't get the plot rolling, the only reason I can see is "because the plot says so." Thoughts?​​

First time posting, John Wick 4

I think people give this movie a lot of hate due to the issues of combat which arguably are stupid and they make John lose too much against people to make it believable. I always thought in the franchise it would have been cooler to have John despatch lower enemies much faster and his main rivals much slower as would be a logical choice but they all instead take the same amount of time but I have something to say.

John Wick 4 may have horrible storyline and nemesis’ but it makes up for it in increased cinema. The cinema even when John kills the nightclub owner with the rain pouring on him is purely amazing.

I think people judge the film too much due to its change in direction but between JW4 having the nightclub scene and the Sofia and John Dog Fight in JW3 I put them on par.

Exceptional films.
