Glad you liked them. First one is def the best. 2 slips a little but the next one is fun.Strat wrote:Finished all 3 john wick movies. What fun!
First one is the best as there seems to be a little more gravitas to the story, but all are super entertaining. Keanu Reeves is a treasure.
Theyre so beautifully shot and choreographed. Wild fun!

I haven't. "Meek's Cutoff" is the only one in her filmography that I recognize. Looks like a great cast, too.tragabigzanda wrote:Farmer John wrote:First Cow is a lovely little film![]()
