Man, I kinda liked John Wick (the first one) , but, John Wick 2 had so many looooooong fight scenes that did ZERO for the plot I just lost it. I cannot bring myself to see the third movie.
Some of the fight scenes in 2 were so staid, I swear I could hear, "Action! [Move, jump, blam, blam [insert CGI headshot] blam, move.]"
"Boss we're out of script ideas."
"That's ok, we'll stretch-out the fight scenes."
"NO! We can't! We've already stretched them out!"
"You want a job? Make. Them. Longer."
"OK, you're the boss. Jackhole."

don't be trashing the Boogey Man!
Just to warn you they left a huge opening for a 4th at the end of #3
I do love the scenes but agree they could shorten them. You get wore out watching a 5 minute scene.
They did the same in the Matrix with their literally 10 minutes scenes of martial arts. I love the series but man..........

CrownBlack: 4th... Oh gawd.... Noooo! OK, thanks for the warning. :-) For some unknown reason I give The Matrix a pass, but I bet you're right if I measure using the same yardstick.

#3 way over the top even compared to #2. Still can’t wait for #4!

John Wick was awesome. Part 2 was Meh. Parabellum was okay. Too much favor redemption huey. The action was fun, but the story just didn't do it for me. The second one made more sense and they should've ended it there.
The Matrix was a great, original idea. The sequels just ruined it.
That said, I couldn't wait to see each Wick flick because Keanu's character was so cool. I liked Ian McShane's character too.

I still need to finish #3, maybe this weekend. The training Reeves did with Berry really paid off from what I saw so far.

I've only seen the first one. Not the best movie ever, but pretty entertaining. Will probably watch the 2nd on weekend.
