The theft of his car and the killing of his dog provide the motivation for an orgy of shootings and beatings. There's even a fight scene with a hit-woman, so that misogynists can get their jollies. Keanu Reeves obviously has bills - or alimony - to pay, which could explain his appearance in this schlock. Did Jason Statham and Nicholas Cage turn it down? Willem Dafoe, presumably also in need of a boost to his pension, has an inexplicable supporting role, and Ian McShane makes an appearance so brief it can't have paid much more than Extra work.

The film is shot with pace and style, but the mayhem is endless, pointless, mindless. I normally avoid movies as bad as this; I should have avoided JOHN WICK.
