Prime Video: The best action trilogy of the moment will leave the platform

In 2014, the killers made the fatal mistake of going after his dog. Since then, John Wick has embarked on an endless quest for revenge, as the Keanu Reeves-led tax saga now spans a total of four feature films, with both a spin-off and a prequel series soon to be added!

Written by Derek Kolstad under the influence of film noir, but also of the code of revenge (especially popularized in the 70s by Charles Bronson), the script of John Wick appeared in 2012 on the most desirable black list of Hollywood. . The originality of the film is to offer a sensitive personality to the unstoppable killer, a role that, moreover, seems to have been written for the measure of Keanu Reeves.

Matrix trilogy coordinators David Leitch (uncredited) and Chad Stahelski worked on the first part, while the other opus of the John Wick saga were directed only by Stahelski, while Leitch was entrusted with the realization of Deadpool 2 and. spin-off Fast & Furious: Hobbs and Shaw.

“I know gun fu”

Their knowledge of martial arts allowed John Wick to popularize gun fu, a fighting technique that combines the use of weapons with the choreography of close combat. Gun fu was born in the 80s thanks to Hong Kong action cinema, especially the films of John Woo, before American cinema reclaimed it in the 2000s.

The John Wick trilogy, available on Prime Video, ended last March with the release of the fourth opus, which became the biggest success of the franchise, especially with more than a million in French cinemas.

Currently shooting, the Ballerina spin-off will star Ana de Armas as a ballet dancer-turned-assassin, with Keanu Reeves returning alongside her as John Wick.

You don’t have to wait any longer to enjoy the first three films of John Wick, because the action trilogy will definitely leave the catalog of the Amazon Prime Video platform on May 31!
