Third time's the harm with John Wick: Chapter 3 via nparts
They say third time’s the charm. But that presupposes the first two weren’t charms already. Case in point: John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, whose subtitle is the second half of an old Latin proverb, “If you want peace, prepare for war.” Though John Wick does a lot more than prepare.
This one starts out in a similar vein – a jugular vein, if you will. John Wick has been excommunicated from the worldwide guild of assassins for all that mayhem in Chapter 2, and has a $14-million bounty placed on his head. This bureaucratic decision requires all manner of analogue toys – rotary phones, file cabinets, rubber stamps, tickertape; everything short of pneumatic tubes and one of those big map tables with croupier sticks.
Alas, it all starts falling apart about 30 minutes into the movie’s two-plus hours. I’m not even sure why. Former Reeves stunt double turned director Chad Stahelski is back at the helm, and Derek Kolstad returns as scriptwriter, although he’s got three accomplices this time. But about the same time Wick goes to see an old comrade named Sofia , the movie seems to decide that all we really want is to watch him shoot people in the head at close range.
