If Reeves is actually doing his own stunts here it's damned impressive. Actors performing stunts is something I really appreciate. Heck, the only reason I remain a fan of Tom Cruise's movies is because of this, so Keanu being much more likable, knowing that he did most or all of the stunts is awesome.

The problem is that while all of the physicality of the fights and the gun-foo is cool, there's not much of a story. The number of people getting shot in the head is disconcerting too, and loses it's impact when the thirtieth person takes one in the forehead. I could have used a little more of Wick just petting his dog. The ending is pretty neat but when you mull it over for a second, it's nothing more than a sequel setup.

There is a sequence when Wick goes gun shopping that is so out of place. Hollywood leads the charge on gun control yet glorifies them in scenes like this one. I guess it's okay if we use guns to sell movie tickets. I'm not stating any position I personally hold, I just found the scene ironic. Maybe these particular filmmakers don't hold the same position that the film industry constantly pats itself on the back over.

This is a movie that I like just fine but it's almost solely based on Keanu just being a really good action movie guy.
