The fights are longer, the body counts are higher, the opponents are even more powerful, and I am so here for it.
I’d howl in affirmation. As a diehard, I would have said yes before it even came out — that's the kind of devotion the franchise has inspired in fans since it began nine years ago. Hearing the words"Murray Close / Murray Close/LionsgateBeneath all the violence, the most gripping element of the franchise is arguably Wick’s deep abyss of pain.
in an interview, audiences like Wick because the characters in his circle like him. Ian McShane and Laurence Fishburne return as Wick’s dutiful allies Winston and the Bowery King. Driven by a deep but impractical affection for Wick, they continue to devote themselves to his protection and his success, risking their own demise by defying the High Table’s ban on helping Wick.
Wick rebels against the High Table’s system, which exploits the people doing the actual dirty work and operates only in its own interest. He and his fellow detractors seek a normal life and security for those they love, yet over and over, they realize their only choice is service to the High Table’s rules. There is no retirement, and the lack of choice breaks people — as one character puts it, what transpires is a warning of the cost of tyranny.
