Synopsis Released For JOHN WICK 2

John Wick was one of my favorite movies from the last couple years. Sadly, my fiance refuses to watch it because of the puppy scene. Still, perhaps I can get her to give it a chance before the sequel comes out.

When it was first announced, I was confused as to how or why they’d be doing a sequel. I would love to see a movie about the hotel from the film, but I thought that the story was pretty much complete unless they were going to focus more on an origin tale or something.

As it is, I’ll probably see the sequel, but this first synopsis has me thinking that I’ll see it on Netflix instead of in the theater.

Keanu Reeves returns in the sequel to the 2014 hit as legendary hitman John Wick who is forced to back out of retirement by a former associate plotting to seize control of a shadowy international assassins’ guild. Bound by a blood oath to help him, John travels to Rome where he squares off against some of the world’s deadliest killers. Lionsgate’s “John Wick: Chapter 2” arriving in theaters on February 10, 2017.
