One of the reasons we opted to do an action movie series was the specific purpose of watching the movies we’re covering today. The hype has been so massive, and ever-present, that we couldn’t ignore it any longer. And these movies did not disappoint. A lot of the talk is about Keanu Reeves, and rightfully so; these movies are the perfect blend of action, silence, and tension that Keanu is able to play so brilliantly. But the supporting cast, which at first glance could look like stuntcasting, is actually masterful. But it’s director Chad Stahelski, after a long career working directly with Keanu on so many of his best action roles, who really shines in these movies. His sense of action and creating scenes that use few special effects are mesmerizing, and he’s proven in these 3 films he’s a master director. We couldn’t just talk about one; we had to talk about them all, and special Keanu expert Andrew Gormley of Cool Breeze Over the Mountains joins us to wrap everything up. We’re watching the entire John Wick series this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven’t Seen What?!
