My favourite thing about the nunchuku fight is that John seems like he doesn't quite know how to use them, but he knows that whacking someone in the head with a piece of wood hurts. Obviously he's not incompetent, but it just seems like a weapon he's only partially trained in, so he's doing his best with what he's got.
I've always appreciated the John Wick films for bringing more grappling arts into the focus of choreography, more so than probably any action/martial arts film to date. Something about the flow of it just looks so good from every angle. I'd attribute the innate quality of grappling disciplines requiring full contact as to why they always manage to look more realistic on average compared to fights that are striking heavy, especially on the flashier end. Regardless, the attention to detail and the dynamic between unarmed and weapon based close-quarters-combat is remarkable. I could see this being a great basis for a Metal Gear film.

Kenshi It's you!
The action in the John Wick films is absolutely top tier. Really great rewatching some of the iconic moments with your reactions.
John Wick movies are so awesome, and fight scenes don’t often have shaky camera and quick cuts. Action movies should often be like John Wick films.
John wick does aikido and sambo, kushui dev did two videos on his styles
It's such a nice series to see you enjoy those scenes :D
Hope you do a lot of them !
If you do superhero fight scenes next, Be sure to include the Warehouse fight from Batman vs Superman.
It's a felony to use nunchucks in some states.
Amazing brother. If youre going to do more reactions can you react to Donnie Yens Flashpoint. That would be awesome.
