As the review aptly noted, that's not that big of a problem, because the franchise --- since after the most cheaply produced but one with the most realistic violence ---- no longer cares about logic, sensibility, actual flow-charts, or normalcy. When 99.99% of your movie is focused on endless blood, shooting, stabbing, car chases, more shooting, more sword fight, desert horse riding, fake museum props scenes, etc. remembering actual real-life-like sequences of events are the least things you or the audience care about. John Wick is basically a modern and better made Wuxia-Hong Kong flick, you know, martial arts movies that take place in some alternate reality .... from the 1970s to the present.... in which NO MAJOR story line, quality control, or directorial or editing thinking goes into.... It's all the same, with none of the actors and actresses who've just killed literally a dozen or a thousand having a spec of dust soiling their perfectly long, flowing white silk clothes .... with none of them having one sweat forms on their foreheads... Everyone just flies effortless like Superman and Spiderman and Thor and all other comic book character... movies that a leisure lunch discussion and a horse chasing scene are separated by literally just ONE frame of film, with no care or thinking going into the passage of time, logical flow of things (bird chirping, sun sets or sun rise, bees or birds drinking nectar... dandelions twirling through the air... flowers wilting, etc.... the usual fake preparation that goes into making sure the transition from one major scene to another looking MORE earth based, more realistic...

I enjoyed seeing his panic and realization that if Wick made it to the duel he could actually lose so his best bet was to send an army of assasins after Wick. For me it worked.

Excellent breakdown as always Mr. Drinker. Of all the amazing scenes in JW4, my favourite was when John saved Mr. Nobody’s dog. It served as an emotional callback to the first movie and what lead him to seek revenge. He didn't want to inflict that kind of pain on someone else, even if that person was out to kill him. A touching moment juxtaposed in relentless violence.

I feel like Donnie Yen has never gotten enough credit. He's more than just a great martial artist, but he's really shown he's a great actor in recent years. His fight in the kitchen in the Osaka Continental was epic, and the Ip Man-style flurry of punches before the wind up and uppercut had me laughing. He was one of my favorite things about _Rogue One_ too, where he also played a blind guy.
You still get a bruise when hit by a bullet while wearing a vest. If anything, bullets basically function like high speed knives, so such a suit would only protect you from piercing implements. If someone takes a bat to the thing, you'll feel it.

I think it got more ridiculous as the series went on because the filmmakers are basically retelling Dante's inferno. He's getting deeper into hell with each movie as he goes deeper back into the assassin underworld. Ernst reads from Dante in Part 3, The Bowery King quotes it at the beginning of 4, Charon is named after a character from it. I don't think John Wick could die until he reached the bottom because the world of the movie isn't this world, it's symbolically hell.

I think the way they wrote the Marquis actually fit the theme quite well. Each main antagonist in the series exhibits power in a different way, and he portrayed money equalling power here.
The scene where Keanu was doing donuts and shooting up assassins in a classic barracuda in Paris has to be one of the best action scenes of all time

Also it's probably for the best they end with 4. If you pay enough attention you notice Keanu is much slower in this film compared to the previous ones, which makes sense as he's almost 60 years old and while he's in pretty good shape for his age, he only focused more on being an action star once the John Wick movies started, meaning he'd maybe be able to do one more John Wick before he'd need a stunt guy to do all the action for him.

Winston told John about the ancient rule when he stood to gain from it. In the previous movie, by the end, he was still the manager of a fully operational continental. At that point, he lost everything, so I’m telling John, he had an opportunity to bounce back to his former status. They even have a line in the film about how he always has an angle to everything he does.

I honestly didn’t mind the Marquis as the antagonist, because it really does reflect the sort of “old ways” of having someone who was in a head position due to status alone. Someone who could not fathom getting their hands dirty, but was quick to show the world they had power. It was satisfying seeing him squirm as daylight was about to break and the gunfire drew closer, him knowing his demise was close.
The thing I enjoy most about John Wick is that it's all killer, no filler. Just pure, balls-to-the-wall action from start to finish, unburdened by wacky comic relief sidekicks, pointless love interests, or anything else thrown in to vainly draw in the "doesn't normally watch action movies" demographics.

Imo the John Wick franchise has obliterated the Matrix movies. There's 4 Matrix film and there all imo mediocre apart from the original which is still a bit overrated and imo just a decent movie. All four John Wick films are absolutely fantastic.
