Ballerina-John Wick Spin-off

First of all, I enjoyed it. It was entertaining. But ...

I can appreciate that things aren't quite the same in John Wick World as they are in real life, but some things just push the boundaries of credibility. I don't think it's a spoiler since it's in the trailer and commercial, but the whole grenade fight sequence? Being that to close to that many explosions would have left her deaf for the rest of the film and probably hearing impaired for the rest of her life. And the guy she pins behind the door? If the force of the blast was enough to blow a hole in the wall behind the door, it definitely would have blown the door off it's hinges and hit her.

Also, she's pretty much getting her butt kicked most of the time with little ill effect, but gets knocked out with the one shot when the story needs it?

Yea saw the trailer was like what a mess . It's an Obvious cash grab off of the Wick success . How many times have they tried this and it never works .
The Halle Berry Cameo IMO almost ruined that Wick installment only good thing she wasn't in the entire film.
 
I went too - I mostly enjoyed it - I thought it started and ended strong. The club fight scene was very engaging. It is my least favorite of the John Wick movies, but having said that, I'd give it a solid "B" and will watch it again on streaming. I didn't mind the fighting style so much as not finding the antagonists very interesting. Everyone is afraid of them, but we're never given a solid "why" or what they stand for. "They kill everyone" is just standard in JW's world isn't it?
