John Wick Changed Action Movies And You Barely Noticed JD: I love how they actually take into consideration that On firearms can and will malfunction and two guns do not have an unlimited ammo cheat code. Dont get me wrong, I enjoy watching Arnold in Commando take on an island full of opposing army with one gun that shoots non stop killing anyone that comes within feet of the round all while none of their rounds come close to Arnold as he mows them down. I also enjoy the one liners like the end of commando where Arnold is fighting a bad guy in a chain link vest named Bennett and after he defeats him by throwing a pipe through his body he say Bennett, Let off some steam! I had never seen anything like John Wick. I happened to catch it on cable tv one day and immediately had to find it so I could watch it in its real form. Right after I was hooked. Just a rare movie to see in todays world where they aren't even as good as the old Commando or Steven Segal movies. Its The Rock using his strength to hold up a 50 story building while he saves his family. Total ridiculousness. Obviously JW is not 100% realistic but its just right in how much it adds to make it entertaining.

I need to stop clicking on Looper videos, theyre always just so poorly written. They do a good job with editing, but the script for this is awful. Youve broken the video up into different segments, but those segments dont flow together, or even really fully explain a point on their own. And youve spent very little time even talking about action movies that have taken inspiration from the series. I agree that John Wick has made a big impact, but this video doesnt even explain that.

I think the thing that everybody keeps forgetting about the John Wick style movies, is the fact that we are now weaponizing celebrities. Because I mean really think about it: you don't just forget these skills over your lifetime and now this means that if he actually had a firearm or nothing on him Keanu Reeves could defend himself in a life-or-death situation armed with nothing but a pencil. A f pencil!

Honestly, not to sound all hipster, but I thought this film look special from the original's poster, the one of Keanu's head with the fuse and those piecing eyes. It really stayed with me though i never watched the movie at the time and here years later its allover the internet! Mainly i want to say, props to that the poster designer for suck a striking image!

The only thing Wick movies changed is that the main actor, Keanu Reeves, trained for all the fight scenes. But the fight scenes are lousy, slow, unrealistic, and full of I'm not going to move so you can hit me coreography. And the main reason why Wick movies are so hyped up is because Keanu really trained in martial arts. I see mass hypnosis.

I rarely watch movies, because they're all coded messages for shitty ideas. I don't care for john wick rippoffs. The thing that makes JW good is its believablity, Jennifer Lawrence deftly killing a room full of men? NOT BELIEVABLE> Its why the new star wars are shit, its why a movie that's actually worth watching comes out every 5 years.

The Bourne Trilogy: shit in many levels
John Wick: no shaky cams, impressive gunplay, one-take fight scenes, actually RELOADS, no hey look its him on the CCTV footage; enhance image scenes, and just complete badassery at its finest.
John Wick is one hell of an action movie.

No too much shaky cam, cut, different angles. This is the reason why I love many action scenes from Thailand and Hong Kong/China films.
I hated it when Tony Jaa went to Hollywood. The fighting cinematograpgy was just crap and doesn't deliver the same impact his Thailand moviea did.

Please no more Marvel Comic movie sequels. Just one is per month like the books or just release all at once, really put fans in a frenzy. Funny how Matrix influences and now John Wick is thrown around with Marvel/disney. Not forgetting the whole video game aspect of this title.

The thing why John Wick changed action movies forever is that it captures a gritty realism in it's action while being framed beautifully without shaky cam and so many cuts. And also it's action scenes are convincing because you can see the actor performing most of the action.
