Overview

Yeah, we're thinking he's back — John Wick, that is. Back in 2014, Keanu Reeves introduced everyone's favourite assassin (and dog owner) to the world, with the film quickly sparking an action-packed franchise. The first sequel followed two years later. The third effort did the same in 2019. And, yes, a fourth movie is currently in the works; however, for now you'll have to make do with revisiting the first three flicks on the big screen at Dendy Coorparoo's John Wick multi-day marathon.

At this point you should know exactly what this excellent series offers up: John Wick first seeking revenge against those who've wronged him, then being hunted down by his fellow killers. And all of this because, in the first movie, he became the proud owner of an adorable pooch. As Wick notes, of course, "it wasn't just a puppy".

On-screen, everyone from Willem Dafoe, Ian McShane, Lance Reddick, Common and Ruby Rose to Halle Berry, Jason Mantzoukas and Anjelica Huston also pop up. So too does Laurence Fishburne, so prepare for a Neo and Morpheus reunion. And behind the lens, former Keanu stunt double turned filmmaker Chad Stahelski directs.

Revisit the exquisitely choreographed action trilogy at select times between Friday, August 7–Wednesday, August 12 — and, if you're not already excited, check out the trailer for John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum below:
