Although this film is in the writer's own words a "simple revenge story", it is brilliantly written, acted, and shot. (BTW do you need another reason to watch when the supporting cast includes John Leguizamo, Willem Dafoe, Lance Reddick, and Ian McShane?!). The fight sequences are second to none, and excepting the bad-guy thugs (who are necessary for the high body counts), all the significant characters are three-dimensional and have histories with each other. They speak in a shared code that lends believability and ethics (or should I say humanity) to an otherwise nihilistic and horrific underworld.
John Wick is reminiscent of Clint Eastwood's protagonist in "Unforgiven" (1992) and other remarkable anti-heroes who, although they can never truly escape their past deeds, their painful and honest struggle to extract themselves (usually with help of a loved one), and their willingness to fight the evil of their former world provides the possibility of moral redemption. Needless to say, such richness raises these films to something far superior to mere revenge stories.

Molecules of The Legion once again teams up with Showbiz of D.I.T.C. for his debut EP "A Bronx Tale". While Showbiz handles production, Molecules administers vocals along with appearances from Dres (Black Sheep) and The Legion. Both Cules and Show deliver beats and rhymes as only Bronx natives could. They carry on the tradition of dropping gritty neck snapping tracks that was birthed some 40 something years ago in their home town. The Legion and D.I.T.C. have given us classics over the last few decades and this latest offering is sure to satisfy the craving of those looking for the real.

As usual I am never disappointed by this musician. His sounds are so mellow and upbeat at the same time. His guitar always puts me on a beach with a long tall drink in hand. Love Norman Brown. Keep stringing that guitar.

What Every Sequel Should Be: A Relentless Masterpi

John Wick wasn't designed for a sequel. It began with someone killing John Wick's dog, and ended with the vengeance-bent uber-assassin stealing a new best friend from an animal shelter, after dropping 76 dead bodies along the way. The movie succeeded not on the strength of its story, but on the elegance of its action, and while it reaches at times to justify its own existence, John Wick: Chapter 2 boasts a reunion with Matrix co-star Laurence Fishburne and two major improvements on the original: First, no animals were harmed in the making of the film. And secondly, the human body count is significantly higher.
If the latter detail offends your humanistic sensibilities, then this isn't the franchise for you. Even for Grand Theft Auto junkies and those at the other end of the spectrum, it can actually get tiresome watching Wick eliminate a seemingly inexhaustible stream of henchmen at times. But there's a quality to the violence here that elevates it above the literal and reprehensible nihilism of movies and instead achieves something more akin to dance.
John Wick: Chapter 2 pits Keanu Reeves' titular character against the mean and nefarious of the criminal underworld. Once again, Reeves proves that he is a force to be reckoned with in this ridiculous, over-the-top sequel that is every bit as fun as the original. These types of films are rarely known for their artistic value but sets the bar pretty high, not only in its action, but in it's set design and camera work. This is pure escapist entertainment and is exactly what you're looking for.
The look and feel of the film is very much in line with the first. It has beautiful, vibrant colors that compliment the violence and chaos. The sound is absolutely amazing with each gun sounding the way they should instead of using the stock machine gun or pistol sound which is something the original was guilty of at times.
The performances are incredible and the direction of the action sequences is beyond impressive. This is a bigger John Wick and one that does a nice job at expanding on his world. The only issue that the film may have depends on your taste in action films. This is considerably longer than the original but it moves so fluidly and frenetic that it barely feels like it.

Kendrick takes us through what it is like to be a black person/black man in America, reaching back from slavery, from the perspective of a wealthy man to one who is poor and has nothing. He addresses Trayvon Martin and the word negus. He suffers through hate and depression and basks in love. He criticizes police violence on black youth but still tells us that we have to confront black on black violence too. He guides us with Nelson Mandela's example and has a poignant dialogue with Tupac, and at the end reminds us that we're the ones we've been waiting for. All in less than 80 minutes. And I know there's more as I'm still trying to digest it.
