Keanu is the only actor I've heard approve a bromance between two of his characters. And of course he'd have to specify what food they eat.

... only Keanu.

Keanu Reeves may look like he's in his 30s but he couldn't have played this part in his 30s. There's a self-awareness here that was missing from Keanu's Matrix-era performances; John Wick doesn't wink at the audience but it is heightened in a way that allows the film to keep its tongue in its cheek enough that the relentless violence maintains a tone of pure, exhilarating fun. Reeves plays the role with the slightly wooden affect for which he's been mocked in the past, but it's part of the joke because it allows the larger-than-life world of the movie to bloom around him.

If I spot my old house, I will be insanely happy.

John Wick doing well at the box office can only be a surprise to someone who simply wasn't paying attention to all the fantastic reviews and press.

and continues with:
"John Wick, the violent R-rated film which was a co-produced with Chinese investors, had the advantage of opening in IMAX theaters this weekend. The Cinemacore is only a B which means exit polls for its core audience weren't that great despite mixed to positive reviews. That will average out to a 2.9 multiple. Surprisingly, Keanu Reeves' average opening is only $17.6M for wide releases. "

and " Okay, why would anyone make a big-budget Keanu Reeves picture when his average opening for a wide release film is only $16.9M (after John Wick's $14.1M+ opening). Anyone? Anyone? (Bueller?) With a B CinemaScore, it should average out to a 2.9 multiple or tap out around $40M domestically. "

someone called her out on that bs:
ASFan -John Wick has "mixed-to-positive reviews" when it's at an 86% RT score while Fury is "well-received" at a 77% RT score?

In truly excellent "tracking is for losers" news, Keanu Reeves's superb action vehicle John Wick earned $14.15 million over its debut weekend, including $870,000 worth of Thursday previews and a $5.45m opening Friday. That's a decent 2.58x weekend multiplier. The tracking had this one pegged at $8m, but they were refreshingly wrong. Because sometimes we deserve to have our faith rewarded. Because John Wick is the action anti-hero we deserve AND need right now. The film is a Lionsgate (Lions Gate Corp.) acquisition, and I have to give them plaudits for their marketing campaign. For a film that looked a month or so ago like a dump, Lionsgate pulled out all the stops to turn a theoretical B-movie action pick-up into something of an A-level event for film nerds.

They secured a surprising IMAX release (it earned $2.5 million in 347 IMAX theaters) and turned the film's release into something of a coronation for its iconic star. As someone who has long defended Keanu Reeves both as a movie star and as an actor, the relative embrace by the film critic/pundit community felt oddly vindicating. For the record, we're talking about a $14 million debut weekend, so let's not get too hyperbolic. But the David Leitch/Chad Stahelski-directed and Derek Kolstad-written action picture received nearly unanimously rave reviews and, not to give myself and others of my ilk too much credit, but I think this is a case where strong reviews actually made a difference. The film played 18% IMAX, 60% male, and 77% over-25 years old.

This was a better debut than A Walk Among the Tombstones ($12.6m) and Three Days to Kill ($12.2m) but obviously well-under The Equalizer ($35m).Like a lot of 1990′s movie stars, Reeves doesn't have a bunch of mega-openings (six $20m+ debuts, three of which were Matrix films) since he came of age when a $14m debut for Speed could theoretically lead to a months-long run and a $121m domestic total. Even as recently as 2006, he and Sandra Bullock (who until five years ago had never had a $20m debut) opened (the painfully underrated) The Lake House to $13.6m and watched it earn $52.3m domestic (a 3.8x weekend multiplier). Reeves films tend to have sturdy legs (again twas a different time), so I can certainly see this one possibly ending up at $50m domestic. I would certainly rather see John Wick Kills Yet Again than Bill and Ted's Sadly Disappointing Quest.

Why in the name of God are they trying to connect what Keanu said about his studio offers and the success of JW? Its pissing me off that they are trying to attribute its success to some non existent "SYMPATHY" factor. Nonsense. It is a great movie that appeals to its target audience. Period. Deal with it.
