It better not suck!

I'm committing a few hours to seeing it this afternoon with my brother and his wife.

He called to invite our parents if my dad was feeling up to it, but my dad's still sleeping and Probably not up for it anyways with how weak he's been feeling lately.

But w/e, I decided I'm gonna go as I've seen the first 3 already - which is Rare that I've seen all of a movie series up to date! Plus they're going to one of the VIP theatres, apparently not the Nicest plushest one, but nice enough and I can get a beer served to my seat. 8)

IT's Keanu Reeves + non-stop action.. I think they'd have had to made some serious mistakes for it to suck, so I'm anticipating that it's gonna be a good one. Will let ya know later if it's worth spending the $ to see in theatre or nah, wait and watch it for free. (Movie ticket and a beer probably costs nearly $40)

Fair - but I tend not to post movie spoilers.. don't like spoiling them, especially if the movie was Good.

If you haven't seen it yet, remember JW:CH 4 is about three hours long! 8O

I have not seen this myself yet, but I don't know if I'll be able to sit for three hours.

I would have to walk out of the auditorium either to stretch my legs (my butt may be sore from all the sitting)
or to use the bathroom.

It was good. 8)

I had a beer and some coconut prawns with sweet chilli sauce. Expensive, but w/e I only go to a movie once or twice a year so nbd. The VIP lounge/bar and washrooms are nice. The leather seats in the theatre tilt a bit and have heated backs. Not bad.

I’ve had them from several restaurants and from Costco. These ones were actually really quite good - possibly the best version of sweet chilli sauce I’ve ever had with them, too.

But the frozen ones from Costco are by far the best value when they’re in season.

Aren't all John Wick movies fantastic, if you like the actor and are into action movies?
I saw "Parabellum" and it was great.
All the Wick movies are wickedly good. :mrgreen:

I intend to buy the DVD.

BTW, Keano Reeves is such a fantastic guy. A real "mensch".

There was also a trailer for a new movie made by the same people as the John Wick movies called “Sisu,” and it looks fantastic.

It’s about an old guy from Finland who’s a one man Nazi killing machine. Looks Super Cool. 8)

Was JW4 as formulaic as JW2 and JW3?

Or did the story present news twists on both plot and character?

I have no idea.
I haven't seen it yet.
