This was an okay C+ flick, don’t think I’ll find it very memorable with the exception of a few standout action sequences. Had the urge to go axe throwing afterwards, so there’s that. For a flick that was 75% re-shot tho, probably about as good as it’s gonna get.

It was nice seeing Lance one last time. Also dope watching Wick back on screen and being his usual badass self, but this felt like a GTA side mission for homie lol.

One big thing I liked here was the manner in which Eve earned her battle scars. She was getting thrown all around across the table through glass vases and taking WWE bumps in this. It didn’t shy away from those brutal moments. Another good move having her find just about anything to weaponize according to what was surrounding her since she didn’t necessarily have the upper-hand to out-muscle these guys.

The action was great. Not quite main series John Wick level, but still really good, especially the 2nd half of the film. It was pretty predictable, but honestly, I prefer it that way.

The only issue I had in the film was the reveal of the sister. Unless I am mistaken, that felt like it came out of nowhere. I get the idea behind, but god the execution on it sucked.

Damn 75% reshoots? Whatever they were trying im glad someone said fukk all that and gave us a good action flick. When it was first announced we all was like how is going to kill 1 man let alone a whole army of them and i didnt need to suspend my belief too much. The locations and scenery was dope and the village reminder me of some resident evil cult shyt. Ill give it another watch

Just getting back from seeing this and thought it was good :ehh:. The story went about as expected, but it was cool seeing
Diego from Umbrella Academy in the beginning as her father.

A few funny moments sprinkled in amid the action. Good use of grenades and flame-throwers :whoo:and I liked whenever
action would break out when you weren't expecting or suddenly.

Could have used a more eccentric villain
