John Wick 2

John Wick 2 wasn't released in time to be a contender for the upcoming Academy Awards, and I'm pretty confident that it won't get any recognition next year either.  But who really cares?  There is a sequence involving handguns, a shotgun, and an assault rifle that is so energetic and fluid, it's like giving an award to the audience.  Please strike that last sentence, it was inappropriately corny.  Probably my favorite part of John Wick 2 is that his dog {spoiler alert} doesn't die.  Now if you've seen the first movie, you'd know why that's so important.  The gun-fu gets old after a while, but it's quite amazing through the entire aforementioned sequence.  The reunion between Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne brought a smile to my face - this almost made up for the third Matrix movie.  Thanks so much for bringing up that piece of crap!
