“You dip so much as a pinky back into this pond, you may well find something reaches out and drags you back into its depths”, says Winston to John in the first John Wick film, but he ignored the warning and so will we. It’s going to be a bumpy, rain-soaked night… Since the first film,… “All this, because of a puppy?” Me to me, after writing 4,000 words on the John Wick trilogy… Read More

Wick did WHAT?? 10 Things That Made Me Go Whoa! In John Wick Chapter 2
So you’ve enjoyed / endured two years of anticipation building up to the sequel to John Wick. You’ve watched trailers, teaser trailers, and tailor teaser trailers. You’ve taken a leaf out of your hero Keanu’s book and defended Wick against all-comers, while wearing a tapered suit and looking battered-yet-sexy. I didn’t see John Wick until it… Wick did WHAT?? 10 Things That Made Me Go Whoa! In John Wick Chapter 2 Read More
John Wick: Chapter 2 4.5 stars
One question, asks Julius, the manager of Rome’s Continental hotel. John Wick, the world’s most feared assassin, leans forward to listen: “Are you here for the Pope?” This absurd yet somehow sensible question sums up everything that is so perfect yet at the same time so batshit crazy about John Wick: Chapter 2. Bigger and bolder… John Wick: Chapter 2 Read More
John Wick Chapter 2 Trailer Goes 50 Shades Darker: “Will Somebody Please Give That Man My Number!”
The new John Wick Chapter 2 trailer is brilliant, though it looks pretty standard action for Valentine’s Day to me. I am hard as nails though. The sequel to the Keanu Reeves slow-burner from 2014 is out in a few days and I can think of far worse ways to spend Valentine’s Day than at the cinema… John Wick Chapter 2 Trailer Goes 50 Shades Darker: “Will Somebody Please Give That Man My Number!” Read More
Films Adaptations That Are Nothing Like The Book – Part 1
I’ve been reading Baba Yaga. It’s a great story but it’s nothing like the film version. (See all the trailers for John Wick: Chapter 2 here)
I’ve Found The Perfect Free Gift For John Wick’s Favourite Magazine
There’s a glossy-yet-shadowy magazine for assassins coming out this month, and I really hope that a pencil is the free gift with the first issue. (A decent quality pencil, tested to ensure each one can kill three people in a bar before breaking*). The new magazine is called Continental Quarterly and is the in-house publication of… I’ve Found The Perfect Free Gift For John Wick’s Favourite Magazine Read More
2017 Movies I Want To See Either Side of John Wick 2
That’s 2017 the year, not the number of movies. And these are the 10+JW2 I’m most looking forward to seeing – don’t let me down, film makers! As I keep pointing out, it costs me a tenner to go to the cinema and that’s before you factor in the drinks afterwards to help me cope with… 2017 Movies I Want To See Either Side of John Wick 2 Read More
OMG John Wick has killed Santa!
He knows when you are sleeping! (as if I’d be asleep). He knows when you’re awake! (hell yes). He knows when you’ve been bad or good (bad John, so very bad). So be good for goodness sake (I’ve been practising!). Come on, this is 2016, WORST YEAR ON RECORD, of course Santa turned out to be… OMG John Wick has killed Santa! Read More
Another day, another John Wick Chapter 2 trailer
John Wick is BACK!!! And just in time to ruin your Christmas party. John Wick trailers are like buses, none for ages then about three in a row (well, strictly speaking, looking at Wick’s mashed up face in the latest one, they’re like night buses going through a really dodgy part of Sarf London). See the 58th… Another day, another John Wick Chapter 2 trailer Read More
John Wick’s in Italy but his Holiday Wardrobe is Tactical in New Trailer for Chapter 2
Last week we got a teaser trailer for John Wick Chapter 2 that saw everyone’s favourite reluctant assassin who-once-killed-three-men-in-a-bar-with-a-fucking-pencil being measured up for a new suit for a party (the Tailor Teaser Trailer?). At New York Comic Con a bigger trailer dropped (yes now we get trailers for trailers. Though with John Wick no one’ll be complaining).

There’s a new teaser trailer out for John Wick: Chapter 2, ahead of a 7 minute trailer premiering at New York Comic Con this weekend. John’s off to a party where I imagine he’ll kill most of the guests when they don’t let his dog in. John Wick: Chapter 2 opens on 10 February 2017,… John Wick’s Off to a Party in Chapter 2 Teaser Trailer & Where’s My Invite Read More
