    Awesome

    What can you say about this franchise that hasn't been said already I've loved the action genre since I was a kid I've watched action films from the 80s 90s and to me john wick is the best action movie series I've ever seen every movie top's the previous one keanu and chad are quite the dynamic duo I can remember going to see the 1st jw and the club scene starts with led spirals and the ensuing carnage had my jaw on the floor I was in awe at the spectacle before me eyes never knew action films could be this great in the modern age I love the action but I also love the world building such an original concept of the conitnental and this world of assasins and contracts markers rules it add layers of depth to this series I could watch keanu make 10 more of these to be honest nobody does it better than reeves hes the goat.

    A must-see for Wick fans

    As far as documentaries go, this one is a must-see for all John Wick / Keanu Reeves fans.

    There are many revelations and surprising back-stores to the conception, creation and production of the franchise - good and bad, but all very interesting and entertaining.

    I didn't think I could appreciate all the Wick films any more than I already do, but to my surprise after watching this, my appreciation for the franchise became much higher.

    Illuminating

    What a perfect documentary. This is my favourite action franchise and I fell in love with the whole process behind it thanks to this film. What a wonderful creation. Great to find out more about Chad and Dave's relationship co-directing number 1. And getting to see all the gun fu pre-viz was absolutely rad. There's another documentary series called "action" where you get to see a lot of Dave's team doing this preViz stuff for the film Violent Night. I couldn't believe what Keanu puts his knees/body through to make these films. What a way to spend your 50s! Absolute legend. Still can't decide which of the four movies is my favourite.

    Wick is Great

    Great documentary. Very insightful and interesting. You end up learning a lot more about John Wick and there's nothing wrong with that.

    If you have loved the John Wick movies, you'll look at them in a new light after seeing what was going on behind the scenes to make the movies.

    'Wick is Pain' is a pretty fitting summary: he loses everything and becomes this unstoppable force, all fueled by sorrow and rage.

    Keanu Reeves is John Wick. No other actor will be able to play that role. He was thete from the beginning, believing in the character and played Wick flawlessly through all 4 movies.

    As a fan, we can only hope and pray that there will be a John Wick 5.

    The Story Behind the Pain

    Great documentary and really draws you in and takes you through all the events leading up to the mega-franchise that John Wick is today. Also, gives you a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes and the actual sources of the "pain". It also shows you a side of Keanu Reeves you may not have seen before, the trainings, the stunts, the actual physical pain that he endured. Much, much respect for him and we tip our hats in his direction! Thank you Keanu! Inspiring enough to pull me back to watch the entire series again.... and again.... and makes us super anxious for the Ballerina and any future movies that tap into this story. Keep 'em coming!
