Not since The Transporter had I seen an action movie containing ALL the clichés of the genre. But while The Transporter laughs at them, the action scenes are both fun and great, and each new cliché introduced only serves to reinforce the joke, John Wick transports you to this state of mind where you're already guessing what's going to happen afterwards but you are hoping that it really really does not, mixed with a fascination at realizing that yes, it actually happens. I cannot understand how it can anything like the scores it has. The script is terribly bad. Action scenes are _mostly_ OK, but inconsistencies in the story and bad lines ruin them.
