Man that Dragon breath ammo sequence isn’t only one of the best action sequences I’ve ever seen, but it’s one of the best theater experiences of my life.
100% agreed, that scene was incredible!
Dude, and they brought back Le Castle Vania songs (og club tracks) to that scene!!!
@@sakujosakujosakujo9800 noticed that!!
My jaw was on the floor the entire time…
@@sakujosakujosakujo9800 they understood the assignment
He had the bullet proof suit. He got hit a lot. When he took it off before the end scene it was a nice touch hearing all the bullets falling out and hitting the ground.
RIP Lance. Fantastic character actor and person 👏
Not to be cheeky, but how do you know he was a good person ..
@@holyglitch1126Keanu said so and he wouldn't lie about that
He was great in Foxs Fringe!
John Wick and Mission Impossible are keeping action movies, well actually most of Cinema alive for me. I look forward to these movies more than any other.
I wish they'd get the Mortal Kombat movies right instead of the garbage we got in 2021. It could literally be the best action Franchise of all time with all the best martial artists, stuntmen and women and action stars ever in one franchise. Imagine this level of kasting of MK if it was taken seriously and given a proper 150-200m to make a great action film

Etc. If we got this as a prequel movie instead of 2021, Mortal Kombat would be being talked about as the greatest action movie and franchise of all time
That 30 min homage to The Warriors in the 3rd act was absolutely fucking beautiful. The eagle eye scene that was one long take was amazing too. Caine is my favorite character, along with the dog. I loved how enemies had to fight alongside each other at times. What a crazy movie
Well, Caine wasn’t exactly an enemy to Wick. He was forced to go against him, but his heart was never in it. The first chance he got to get out of that situation, he took it.
Couldn’t agree more. Before she could even get the word “boppers” out, once I saw the mic and the lipstick, I knew it. And I felt like one of the only ones in my theatre that got it. Shit was so dope though. My personal ranking is 1,2,4,3. Love this damn franchise!
The whole 3rd act was probably one of the best 3rd acts of a movie I've ever seen
I was not prepared to cry at a Cody Leach review (unless usually in laughter) but dammit that opening hit hard. Thank you for doing it though 💜
RIP Lance Reddick. He is the best concierge of the continental could ever have. Thank you for putting that tribute at the start.
I, too, had a huge grin on my face during that tribute to one of my all-time favorite films from the 70s.
What was the tribute to? I saw the movie but didn’t notice
@@pakeli23the warriors
@@Zigmosh thanks
Bill Skarsgard is definitely someone to watch. He was so good as Penny wise, Castle Rock and Barbarian. Looking forward to this movie.
The way the dragons breath fight scene is shot is unreal
So many cool cinematography shots
I loved this movie and will have to go back and see it again soon
The Osaka continental, the stairs, dragons breath, arc de triumph, scene with Scott Adkin’s character. Just absolutely flawless action.
Also the nod to the warriors was unbelievable.
Beyond excited to see this film. My brothers and I are seeing next weekend. My youngest bro has never seen John wick so he's watching the first 3 leading up to John wick 4. He's loving them,, what guy wouldn't. But I knew this was going to be an excellent film. I love all of them and my anticipation is through the roof right now.
R.I.P. Lance Riddick. Phenomenal actor and probably was a really nice person.
The way it ended there's no need for a 5th move. Absolutely loved it and the first cut of the movie was ment to be 3hrs and 43mins long
This movie is perfect for all the action sequences. I think the standout was the Osaka Continental sequence. I loved this movie and it definitely is my favorite movie of the year so far.
I couldn’t agree more, the cinematography in this movie is incredible, everyone’s acting was impecable, Bill Skarsgard as a villain is chefs kiss. I can’t sing this move enough praises. I can definitely see spin off movies from these new characters for sure.
The Marquis is the kind of villain that I wish the last james bond villain is, Bill skarsgard is so intimidating here
This movie was absolutely insane, didnt feel the 3 hour runtime... and Caine* (happy now) was the man... my favorite movie of the franchise
Kaine
@@StarStarbreez Caine*
Kang variant 😂
I felt every one of the 180 minutes. Dragged on forever
@@ethansaint 😘
It’s not they missed shooting John, John’s suit is an armor. Before the duel, John removed his jacket and you hear all the empty shells fall to the ground.
I took John Wick having less and less lines throughout the films as character development. This is a world that he never wanted back in. He doesn’t have very many friends left in the world. His only way out is death. I think one would naturally become closed off and quiet under the circumstances. He essentially turned into the myths about him which I thought was cool. I do agree though when given the right scene Reeves can hold his own just fine.
Went to see the movie last night and oh boy. The blind guy really surprised me, and hope we get a spin-off movie about him. Best movie this year no doubt.
Scott Adkins in a bodysuit and a purple suit was also a tribute to Sammo Hung in the movie SPL / Kill Zone (a high for us martial arts fans). It's over the top action and i love it so while i love every single one i go 1, 4, 3, 2 on my ranking.
Many people wouldn't even know about that movie. I love that movie. Donnie Yen vs Sammo Hung. But we get John Wick with Scott Adkins. (Damn near Sammo Hung)
I was sad to hear that Lance has passed away. He played one of those impossible not to like characters in the Wick films. Yes, the film is an action masterpiece. Coordinating all that action must have been a hell of a task. Which is why they could have toned it down without hurting anything and saved themselves a lot of hardship. And shorten it without interfering with the story. The locations are unbelievable. It's one of the most beautiful movies I’ve seen in a very long time. Rich, intense visuals everywhere. It's magnificent. And a cast to make Hollywood proud.
Cody is so spot on. I officially am going to see this tonight. Looking forward to it. Cody is the man!
@@JamesLawton-di5rv oh, I meant just all around
I love the fact that you paid respect to Lance Reddick before the video started R.I.P
I love the tribute to Lance Reddick at the beginning, your genuine respect is a huge thing that makes you stand out from so many other reviewers, imo.
I’m very glad to hear this is a step up from 3, makes me that much more stoked to see it. Hearing how you’re gushing over it has me extremely enthusiastic because I feel like it’s gotta be pretty great to have elicited that reaction from you, based on the 5 or so years I’ve been subbed to your channel 😂
grew up during 80s I seen 1000s action film & this hands down is in my top 10 action films of all time.
Awesome review Cody.
JOHN WICK CHAPTER 4 WAS FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!! THIS FRANCHISE KEEPS SURPRISING ME IN THE BEST OF WAYS!!!! This one is no exception like HOLY FREAKING CRAP!?!?!? THAT FREAKING FIRE SHOTGUN OVERHEAD SCENE WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, this really was an action masterpiece. The consistent, high octane stunt choreography, set pieces and cinematography was taken to another level I didn’t believe could be. This is Keanu’s staple character for me. The new addition of characters & villains were amazing such as Cane, Mr. Nobody, Marquis, Killa, etc. I was not bored for one second of this film. 10/10 for me & will definitely be top 3 of the year for me.
Been waiting for this one. Let’s go! I thought this film was an absolute masterpiece.
When I intended to write this I was going to say dragon breath continuous shot was my favorite. But then I would think about the continental sequence, then the stair fight. Every single fight sequence is insane and soo fun to watch. Imax, just do it.
This John Wick is right up there with Mad Max Fury road in regards to high octane adrenaline action and pacing with this story as well. It is perfect in every way to me.
Nice message for the dearly departed. Top class 👌
Impeccable from a technical standpoint but some parts did feel redundant and no one in this movie can aim to gun to save their life. I also didn't buy the main villain as that much of a threat. This is easily the best sequel but the first one is still my favorite
Considering how hard it is to keep a franchise consistently good or make the later films just as or if not better this is one of the best I can think of in recent years.
Yes that Easter egg to that 70's movie made me so happy. When it happened I actually looked at my dad with my mouth wide open and looked around the theatre and sadly no one else got that reference. Oh well! I did!
The Warriors just say it😂
In the year where Ant-Man, Shazam, and even Ghostface had problems with their movies, John Wick swoops on and saves the day with this kickass movie! Also, RIP Lance
NOTE: I do like the other movies I listed, but they do have MAJOR flaws.
My problems for Scream are basically the same as John Wick though. Which is the ridiculous plot armor. But that is pretty much the only nitpick I have with John Wick 4.
@@lorenzo_smit I'm fine with plot armor in these movies. They are so over the top, that's part of the charm and I can look past it.
@@heatheraggus7501 Yea that’s true. Like Cody said, the amount of people missing was pretty distracting for me, but I can live with it. It is still an amazing movie
John Wick 4 is awesome, calling it flawless is ridiculous
The movie was fantastic definitely one of the best action films of all time the sound and cinematography are literally insane 5 stars for me.
This movie was a 10 out of 10 for me RIP lance. John wick is not human dude is a tough as nails. Most of us would be dead dealing with what he dealt with it's a movie I know.
That warriors reference is really for the real ones. Loved that entire sequence and how it reminded me that there are many out there who care for forgotten gems like the warriors.
Rip to Lance. Thanks for acknowledging his passing, I'm gonna watch "The Guest" in honor of him.
*THE SCENERY, COLORS AND CAMERA ANGLES WERE WORLD CLASS 👌🏾*
I think Keanu Reeves can be a good actor when given the right dialogue, there's many times in the matrix films when he gives a good performance and awesome review Cody.
he has a pretty good performance in neon demon
Every thing I was thinking walking out of the theater, you’ve put into words in this review. Loved the movie, glad you liked it to, great review man
Keanu should be in greatest action star of all time convos. He has been killing it in the action genre for 30 yrs now. Point break, speed, the matrix and now all 4 JW movies is a damn impressive resume for action. Just on the amount of $ his action movies have made put him in that Convo. Add to the fact that the matrix and the wick movies have set the bar for action movies to follow, makes the argument a no brainier. Dude has been doing most of his own stunts for 30yrs and hats off to him.
I dont't think I've ever seen Cody Smiling in a thumbnail lol
Glad they are taking a break from this to allow it to be missed awhile :)
I agree with you Cody Leach on this. This is one of the greatest action movies ever made. Once in while you have an action movie that just breaks all molds. This is the one. Its up there with Terminator 2, Matrix, Die Hard.
Not only is the action unbelievably well written and choreographed, the acting is absolute on the money.
A tremendous performance for everybody. And they are not big names except Keanu. I watched this movie half and I regret not watching in in theatres.
This should be re released every year for 2 weeks for people to watch. A TV screen cannot do justice to this movie. And tells you something because it has no heavy duty CGI or VFX.
Just plain action.
While I agree mostly with what Cody was saying in his first negative, something I live about the John Wick franchise is:
A) They changed Keanu's most famous quote from "Whoa" to "Yeah"
B) The spectrum of meaning Keanu puts behind "Yeah". Not since Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven has someone made "Yeah" sound intense & badass
I am a super fan of the Wick series. I'm excited to see Wick 4. What's crazy-- they manage to pump these movies out every two years, applying the highest standards, and yet, it takes 20 years to get an Indy movie out, with an old Indy, CGI overload fx, turning it into a cartoon and an overall terrible movie story-wise, action-wise character-wise... you get me. Same with Bond. Same with Matrix. But Wick delivers every time. Every time. Thanks for the review, Cody! I'm pumped.
Great review, dude. I'm seeing this tomorrow. Totally stoked.
"It wasnt just a puppy " brought me here...
Great reviews
I'm so glad people love this. I was excited but worried. Going to watch it later today!
I love that the team promoted the NUNCHUCKS but kept quiet about the DRAGON BREATH.❤❤
That was a really classy intro 👏
Amazing job cody. This is the greatest action film I've ever seen, and it's my favorite action franchise of all time. Keanu Reeves is a Legend, Bill Skarsgard was incredible as the main antagonist. I loved Donnie Yen as well. RIP Lance Reddick. 🙏❤
So cool that you started this movie review with a tribute to the awesome Lance Reddick!
"I once saw him kill a tall man in a library, with a book...
...
... *A FOOOOKIN' BOOK!"* 📙
John Wick. The Michael Myers of action flicks
Seeing it in imax tomorrow I can't wait!! currently watching 2 and 3 is next.
Can't wait to see it this Sunday. Anyone that loves John Wick films know exactly what they are getting into, not many people are going to start at John Wick 4.
What an epic Freddy Krueger shirt
Walter Hill has to be so flattered with that tribute haha I loved it so much too
I think Keanu is an amazing actor with a lot of range. John Wick as a character doesn't require a lot of dialogue imo but seeing him in other roles like Johnny Silverhand or Neo he absolutely kills it. Conpared to say the rock, Keanu is amazing! Will definirely be checking out a lot more of his movies
So excited to see this on Sunday, gonna keep my expectations in check though so this movie can do nothing but surprise me
Wow!!! You really love this one Cody! They should give you a lil role in the next one!!!!
Yes, cody, that nostalgia part of the movie. I loved it too as soon as I saw her lips and then the music and loved it if you have seen it you'll understand
I'm seeing this tomorrow in 4DX!! I'm so ready!!
I am seeing this tomorrow and I am so excited. John Wick is one of my favorite revenge action series.
Really enjoyed the movie, a little mixed on the ending, and I thought they could have done more with Mr. Nobody. Also my only suspension of disbelief issue is when he fell off the ledge in the club and somehow didn't break his back on the pylon.
Saturday morning!!! I'm getting my outfit together!! Update....PERFECTION!!!!! I LOVED EVERY SECOND
I follow your videos on a regular basis and was wondering if you would ever do a movie review for Blade since you love vampire flicks, also another of my personal favorites is John Carpenters Vampires.
I finally seen it yesterday. And the more I think about it, the more I love that film. I want to see it again.
After seeing the movie, I don’t need anymore John Wick movies, it’s a satisfying finality for the story of this character
The last act had the three best action sequences in the entire franchise
1. Dragon breathe
2. Stairs
3. Arc de highway battle
Loved this movie so much and really loved that it brought so much emotion too it like the first movie which is what I wanted especially the talking parts than the action definitely second favorite in the franchise along with the first movie being my favorite
John Wick: Chapter 4 gives more medium line deliveries from Keanu Reeves and moments where he realistically would’ve been dead, but the action is still very well choreographed/fun and makes this franchise 4 for 4.
the nunchucks and club scenes was prolly the best scenes i’ve ever seen in a movie
Man Keanu Reeves is an inspiration. I think he is going to inspire a lot of future actors who want to be action movie stars. The stuff he does is incredible especially given his age. People will want to follow in his footsteps. He's making history and history will never forget him or his action movies. BTW HE'S 58 YEARS OLD!!!!!
Great review. Saw it last night. Totally agree. might be the best one. Got to tell me where you got that Freddy shirt
This may be the movie that pushes the envelope to the academy for Actionstunt coordination effects.
RIP Lance Reddick, loved him in The Wire (probably his best known role as Cedric Daniels, another actor dead from the Wire, could you please do these Movie reviews in the future please:
The Bodyguard (1992), Event Horizon (1997), Mannequin (1987), The Breakfast Club (1985), The Goonies (1985), The Warriors (1979), Fandango (1985), Blue Velvet (1986), Reservoir Dogs (1992), Pulp Fiction (1994), The Edge (1997), Jacob's Ladder (1990), One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (1975), Heaven's Gate (1980), The Deer Hunter (1978), Blazing Saddles (1974), Nell (1994), Dead Poets Society (1989), Midnight Run (1988), Frequency (2000), The Towering Inferno (1974), The Doors (1991), Taxi Driver (1976) & The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
Waiting for this review all day 🙌
We officially need John wick DLC for MK 12
Glad you’re a fan of every fan in this fan’s fanchise
Just came back from watching this. It was crazy, exhilarating and incredible! I loved every second of it 🎉❤
Super excited for the resident evil 4 review sometime in the next couple weeks❗️❗️
"Variety is the spice of death" 🤣🤣🤣
RIP Lance Riddick😥. The Baba Yaga is back babyyyy! Great movie! Hey guys, stay until the very end cuz there's a post credit scene! 😉😊
I also love that ending...absolutely unpredictable
Am I the only one that felt him being hit by multiple cars and falling from a height of 3-4 stories at least twice is immersion breaking that he’s like a parody of what he was in the 1st film
Really excited to see Bill Skarsgård take on Count Orlok in next years Nosferatu. Robert Eggers is helming as director, i think it could be a contender for one of next year's best films
when John Wick is roaming around' the cops stay home.
Nice t-shirt Cody! Nice review also, can't wait to watch John Wick 4.
Keanu Reeves deserves Special Career Honorary Oscar award named after him!
The shooters were not missing John Wick, his bulletproof clothing was stopping the bullets, even on that windshield he held up his jacket to block the bullets from his face
I know Cody is not into martial arts movies, but I think he’d likely enjoy some Hong Kong action movies, especially since they are among the primary inspirations for “John Wick” and may not even necessarily be martial arts movies, like John Woo’s “Hard Boiled” and “The Killer” or Johnnie To’s “Exiled.” There are also action movies worth watching like “The Raid” series and “The Night Comes for Us,” which, like the “John Wick” movies, aren’t traditional martial arts movies. They’re more like crime stories featuring martial arts action as well as other action styles.
I can't wait to talk about this with you at megacon!
Looking forward to seeing it this weekend. Btw, we think you sound like Danny McBride.
I think I remember Chad basing those scenarios of why people aren’t really reacting to headshots and what not in his movies on actual real people in NY that have done exactly that when someone gets killed or mugged or whatever. I mean I’ve seen videos of that and people just walk over that person… Chad just takes it to the next level lol
