What a crack up for both of the above movies, especially the first one. Who would have thought a hitman could be so funny - Bruce Willis does a decent job playing "Jimmy the Tulip"
Not everyone. I cannot be bought for money. Just hired|rented for money. Unless you call love and justice price..because for that i can be bought. I do not involve myself in selling or buying "people" business.

Never knew IMDb has a free movie and TV app. Started out with a great interview from the actress that plays Starlight about, The Boys season 2 and now I'm watching: Once Upon a Time in Mexico with commercials of course...
No matter what everyone keeps telling me, I can't get into John Wick. I've tried part 1, I've tried part 3... the plot is garbage, maybe I've grown as a human or maybe more evolved rap songs are telling me to stop worshipping gangsters... whatever the case maybe John Wick sucks!
Keanu Reeves as an actor can't really evolve, he should stick to certain rolls; could prove me wrong but I doubt it‽
Have you not seen the training he does for those roles? Look up tarantactical on YouTube. He trains in 3 gun for those. It’s pretty impressive. Not gonna change the plot but he’s definitely a dedicated actor.

I had to add more to the search term because literally in America anyone can learn that. I hear lots of agents start out in VR with that nowadays.
I'd be a dedicated actor too if they paid me that much but if I sucked as much at acting as he does I'd be lumped in with Stallone and Schwarzenegger! From my original text I'm not just saying John Wick, lots of those kind of movies I just can't stand anymore!
I'll still watch some movies like Lucy but it has a helluva plot!
The first one had an interesting novelty plot device, but was very overrated and mostly all about special effects, which were groundbreaking then, but dated and run of the mill by today's standards.
The two existing sequels were nothing short of appalling - embarrassingly so in fact.

Have yous seen The Animatrix?
Another interesting fact about the first one was: he died but was brought back to another lifetime, where he becomes "the one..." something "the oracle" may not have seen coming.
Guilty as charged: I loved The Matrix (part I). The sequels were disappointing, yes, but the original - it wasn't just the effects.
But - esp. considering the low-grade sequels - never enough to go pining for part IV.
That said, the Wachowskis had at least one more high point in film directing: Cloud Atlas.
Oh dang, John Wick 3 was disappointing. The fight scenes got were beautiful and got my blood pumping but the rest was basic. It would have been better if he died at the end instead of being "angry" lol
I prefer watching old movies from the 1930s and 1940s. They are more interesting as it is less easy to guess what is going to happen than modern movies, seeing what life was like in the past adds interest, they often have famous classic stars, and only the best movies tend to survive. The out of copyright ones can be downloaded for free from archive.org or youtube.com The picture quality of the free ones can sometimes be very bad, although often it is very good or perfect.
Agatha Christie disappeared for 11 days in 1926. This movie fills that hole with her solving a mystery that might have taken place during that disappearance.
It is quite good, especially if you are a mystery buff.
