The old skool action movies are all the rage these days. From wonderful action thrillers like ‘Jack Reacher’ and ‘Taken’ to epic blockbusters like ‘Olympus Has Fallen’ and its sequel ‘London Has Fallen’. And of course ‘The Expendables’ franchise, which gave us back most of our beloved heroes all in one series of movies. Among the whole new kick-ass revival of classic 1970’s and 1980’s styled action movies is the incredible ‘John Wick’ from 2014. Keanu Reeves may be best known for ‘The Matrix’ and ‘Speed’, but I put it to you now, he has never been better than he was in that movie. Powerful, emotional, brutal and very awesome. ‘John Wick’ gave Reeves a whole new career as a spectacular killing machine, the kind of careers Liam Neeson and Gerard Butler are enjoying right now. Genuinely one of the greatest action movies ever made, it obviously called for a sequel. And now that sequel is almost here!
With ‘John Wick: Chapter 2’ arriving early 2017, the advertising campaign began first with a poster, and now with this teaser for the upcoming first full trailer. Although this is only a tease, it’s a fantastic tease. John Wick is definitely out on a suicide mission this time. And if this teaser is anything to go by, the danger will be much greater than last time. Check it out…
Anyone who hasn’t seen the first movie, you’re missing out on one of the greatest joyrides you’ll ever have with a movie. ‘John Wick: Chapter 2’ is directed by the same directors as the first, Chad Stahelski and David Leitch, and will see Wick take on an army of deadly assassins in Rome, as he keeps a blood oath to an old friend. Bring it on! February 2017!
